because of those two letters, I
can appreciate it a lot more, and
I’m encouraged to go out and
help and be a part of Bonfire.
“I want to see if it’s not too
late to put in my day’s work at
Bonfire, but I’ll bet there aren’t
too many African-Americans
wanting to jump up and join the
College Republicans.”
Sims said he had not wanted
his complaints to have a positive
impact on A&M, not cause a stir.
“I didn’t want my letter to be
taken as a black kid trying to
start some mess,” Sims said. “I
just wanted to be a spark to the
fire so others wouldn’t be afraid
to speak out.
“Racism is not dying. It’s
just getting older. Ajid as it’s
getting older, it’s getting wiser.
And as it’s getting wiser, it’s
finding better ways to disguise
itself. We all have to try to
prevent that.”

They yelled out their old
street addresses in the Jahra
neighborhood north of Kuwait
City and showed how the point
ed folds in their headresses are
distinctively Kuwaiti.
“The government of Kuwait
should give me my money, my
house and my wife,” said a 48-
year-old oil inspector who gave
his name as Abu Talal. He said
he did not want to use his real
name because his family and a
fat savings account remained
behind. “I am crying all the
time. What am I supposed to
do?”
He said he has not talked to
his family since he was arrest
ed in Kuwait four years ago. He
said his leg was broken during
torture and he was accused of
collaborating with the Iraqis
and jailed for two years before
being expeled.
Others said they had
thought about trying to cross
the border six miles away but
so far decided not to. “We all
want to just walk there. But if
we go back the Al-Sabahs will
probably kill us,” said Hamoud
Al-Thahir, 25.

knew the students and re
ferred to them as exceptional
people.
“The manner in which they
died needs to be a flag to the
students on this campus,”
Mobley said. “We need to
solve the human problems in
our society that lead to such
things as this tragedy.”
