Continuing FOCUS


FELLOWSHIP OF RECONCILIATION (FOR) TASK FORCE ON LATIN AMERICA and the
Caribbean is sponsoring three activist opportunities relating to the
Quincentenary of the arrival of Europeans in this hemisphere.

	FOR is cosponsoring a visit by US activists to Ecuador (Dec. 5
- 20) to strengthen ties with the native movement there and express
solidarity for their nonviolent struggle to maintain their lives and
culture in the face of the activities of foreign oil companies, human
rights abuses and economic marginalization.  A cost of $1300 covers
international airfare from Miami and all group transportation within
Ecuador, food and simple accommodations.  Limited scholarship
assistance is available.

	The People's Fast for Justice and Peace in the Americas (PO
Box 77235, Washington, D.C., phone/FAX (716) 673-1161) will take place
Sep. 1 to Oct. 12 on the steps of the Capitol in Washington, D.C.  The
water-only fast is initiated by the Community for the Practice of
Nonviolence.  The fasters invite people to join them in Washington for
dialogue in a public forum or join them in spirit by organizing local
reflection groups.  The forum will be broadcast through a conference
on PeaceNet called "native.1492".

	FOR has produced a collection of original articles about
Puerto Rico's history and situation, the only introductory educational
resource for adults.  $2.50 per copy.  Order from FOR.
