Twelve THE BERN ARDSVILLE NEWS, THURS DAY, AUGUST 29, IMS Urban Skills Project Helps Ease Trauma Of The Past (Editor's Note: The three articles on this page were written by Jasbir K. Pvar of Basking Ridge, summer intern at The Bemardsvillc News. from July 14 to Aug. 3 along with 30 other voluntem from the United States and abroad, she attended a workcamp in New York City where she worked on Ellis Island and painted apartments in the Bronx. The workcamps are organized annually by the Council on International Educational Exchange, an organization which conducts other workcamps and study abroad programs.

Puar was sponsored in the program by The Recorder Publishing publishers of this newspaper. She graduated from Ridge High School in June and will attend Rutgers University,) Movies such as "The Killing Fields" and "Deer Hunter" may do its best to portray the terror of the lives of refugees, but the true extent of suffering and persecution lived through by these people in actuality can never be fully shown. Unlike illegal aliens and immigrants, these newcomers to the United States are usually fleeing from political persecution and horrible living conditions in refugee camps. They have been forced to leave their homes and everything else they have ever owned behind. Cambodians and Vietnamese have been moving to America for several years now while the first wave of Ethiopian immigrants have just started arriving, according to Mary Ellen Rhindress, an Urban Skills Project Director for the New York Association for New Americans (N VAN A).

"These people have a history of a lot of pain and suffering, a traumatic past," said Rhindress. She explained that most refugees apply to several countries for resettlement, but were often rejected where as they were accepted by the United States. "Once they have been interviewed at the refugee camps, NY ANA helps to resettle them in cities," explained Aire Bierman, Director of Resettlement Services. NYANA provides food, clothes, shelter, and counseling services to those refugees who have recently been settled in New York City. "They range from fanners who can hardly read and write their own language, Made Friends Jasbir K.

Puar, left, made some friends this summer during her experience at a workcamp in the Bronx and at Ellis Island. to doctors and lawyers, although most camp intellectuals were killed," said Rhindress. "The Vietnamese tend to have more education, while the Ethiopians have a better command of English" Through group meetings with families in apartment buildings, NYANA helps the refugees to adjust to their new lives. The problems they face not only include adjustment to a new country and language, but the same problems that all New Yorkers face: housing, crime and poverty. 'They have an incredible belief in the United States," said Rhindress.

"They have an image that in America, things work, It's disheartening to sec them disappointed." Along with explaining to the refugees about schools, hospitals, transportation, and other matters dealing with daily life, the concept of having individual "rights" is something that must be reinforced over and over again. For example, refugees often do not understand that their landlords are obligated to supply heat, water and decent living conditions. "These are polite, proud people, said Rhindress, "and we have to help them organize tenant associations and get over the fear of demanding things which are their given rights." Group meetings have been continuing for almost a year at four tenement Working Together, Giving, Receiving Often when one gives of oneself, it is difficult to estimate exactly what has been received in return. That it the 1 felt upon my arrival home after three weeks at the Ellis Bronx Volunteer Workcamp Project. After three weeks of living in Newyork City at the Sloane YMCA on 34th Street, I knew that I loved the city and hated the YMCA elevators.

After three weeks of hard work at Ellis Island I knew that I hated weedwaeking, although it was certainly more interesting than washing historic dishes. After a million paint fights in the Bronx 1 finally learned how to spackle, painl, and repaint apartment ceilings and walls. But most of all, after three weeks of volunteering, I finally understood the difference between "doing" and "giving." For me, doing was showing up to spend three weeks in New York City while working some time in return. Giving was actually caring about the work I was doing. Doing was painting some apartment or another of a family which had recently emigrated to the United States.

Giving was making friends with a five-year old Hispanic boy who spoke no English. His name was "Glefo" and from the moment we met, he shied away from me. My only knowledge of Spanish being Buenos Dias" and "Que Pasa," I would say those two phrases using his name every time I could, while he sat watching us paint. Gradually he became less and less scared of me, and one day he asked me my name, in Spanish, of course. After that there was no stopping our friendship.

Often he would pome to roe, excitedly babbling in Spanish," atii at those moments 1 felt like shooting myself for studying German and French all those years. But after our last day of painting, there was no mistaking what we were saying to each other, and I knew he would miss me. The Cambodian family whose apartment we painted was incredibly polite. After explaining through hand signals and eventually an interpreter that we needed some old rags to wipe down the walls with, the father went out and bought us a dozen brand new sponges. The house was always filled with strange music and equally strange smells from the kitchen.

The father sometimes tried to help us by scraping the walls and moving the furniture. I knew that I was not only giving but receiving in return when he would walk into a freshly painted room after a day's worth of work, turn from us, and smile as if embarassed to show how much such a simple thing like paint mattered. Mis three children, who understood English a little better, hung around while we were painting, joking and laughing with us. A week or so after we finished their apartment, the six-year-old boy and his friend came running up to us, eager and excited to see us. He gave me a plastic flower before I left, plastic, hut just the same, very real.

Two nights before the workcamp ended, the refugees got together and threw a party to thank us for painting Ihcir apartincuts. My most vivid memory of that night was an older Cambodian woman, clinging to my hand as I was walking out the door. Only after a translator explained that I lived close by and would be back to visit did she let go of my hand. There is also a lot to be said about the difference between attending a workcamp and being a part of a group. Being a part of the group meant giving up time to finish painting our lounge, being a part of meal crews, or volunteering to do wake- up, but it also became much more than simply fullfillingobligations.

Being a part of the group meant staying late to finish painting, even if it meant missing the Happy Hour at the Hudson Bay Inn. Being a part of the group meant organizing so that the weedwacking we set out to do would get done. Being a part of the group meant waking up at 2 a.m. to wait in line for David Letterman tickets, and not fighting over them afterwards (I am also guilty as accused). Everyone mattered in our group; Everyone was a part, even those who were foreigners and did not always have the best command of English.

When someone was depressed, the rest tried to cheer him or her up. When someone was sick, everyone looked out for that person. In short, we worked together. And that, basically, is what a workcamp is all about. Renovation Of Ellis Island Overdue buildings in the Bronx.

The buildings, which total 160 apartments, are located on Ford ham Road behind Father Zeiser's Park and consist of primarily black, Hispanic, and refugee families. "It's important to build relations with the as well," said Jeanne Davey, group leader and a member of the Urban Skills Project. "The other tenants also have problems." Often the language barrier can create difficult problems. "A meeting can get out of hand because no one understands the English well," said Davey. "Then, when you think you've explained to them the proper way to do something and they understand, they'll come back the next week having dismissed everything they were previously told." During meetings, Davey coven simple matters such as how to clean the apartments, how to get rid of cockroaches, how to use medicine, and what to wear, especially in the winter since most of the refugees are used to warmer climate.

Tactics to handle the landlords are also covered. Recently, after months of phone calls and letters from Davey to the landlord, new front doors were installed at the apartment, an occurrence which she feels is a major accomplishment. "Taking the landlord to court is the absolute final option," she said. "We try to reach some kind of agreement or sometimes threaten to hold back the rent. It is a very frustrating situation," Davey added.

The gap between cultures can often lead many of the refugees to establish what may seem like a strange set of priorities. According to Rhindress, while their clothes and furniture may be very shabby, a refugee family may own a very expensive television and often a VCR as well. "You have to see life from their point of view," said Rhindress. "This is sort of a sign of 'I made It is a symbol of the United States." Most of the refugees have seen such movies such as "The Killing Fields" and "Deer Hunter" and are pleased that the American public is interested in what refugees have been through. However, according to Davey, the refugees she has been working for say that what they suffered through in actuality has been much worse than any movie has portrayed.

"They feel that nobody understands what happened and what is happening to them," said Davey. "You can't push them for information about their pasts." Most of the refugees have strong work ethics, and about 70 to 80 percent eventually find jobs as factory and maintenance workers. Recently a group of refugees also began their own Bhuddist church in an old house in the Bronx. Despite these adjustments, most of the refugees will never fully be integrated into American life. Their children, often more fluent in English than their parents, are usually the "bridge" between both cultures and the first generation able to transgress.

"They can't go back, though many may want to," said Rhindress. Because of their political and painful pasts, their love for their home country, and their new lives in the United States, they will, Davey added, "be in no man's land' forever." -PUBLIC NOTICE' Misc.

It is amazing that such a piece of history was left untouched Tor 30 years. In I9S4 after the last person, a Scanda- navian sailor, was turned away From entering the United States, Ellis Island was shut down. Located in the New York Miirbor, what was once the gateway to the United States for 17 million immi- grants will soon be completely renovated a nd reopened for the public. The island was established in 1892 and was the largest immigration center in the United States. Often more than 11,000 a day arrived at the island's ''Great Hall" to face further questioning, examination, and hopefully, the chance for a new life in the United States, Immigration to America then was not fiuite so routine or common at it is today.

The trauma began back home, where stories were heard of horrendous boat (auditions, million! of medical examinations and the "30 question!" asked of fich potential newcomer. Families gathered together their entire collected all of their money, and anxiously prepared for the tremendous ordeal awaiting them Once the island mi reacted, immigrants were secretly watched from behind ftaircasas by. medical examiners. Those seaming ill, weak, or missing any part of 'km body inch at arms or IMS automatically chalked with an and fertt to large "holding where they were detained for weeks or even months. "A major problem was traucoma, an eye disease which was incurable at that time, 1 said Robert Peterson of the National Park Service.

"Immigrants found to have this were automatically sent back. Often they tried to hide any medical problems, such as limps or missing fingers. "The fear of these people about what they were going to face was incredible," Peterson added. "The passage through the 'Great Hall' was a great emotional experience for most." Those who got by the medical examiners then had to wait in line for hours until finally they were asked 30 legal questions. Questions such as "Are you an anarchist?" or "Are you a polyagomiitT were designed to confuse the immigrants who mostly had a limited knowledge of English.

Those not answering the questions properly were chalked with an "SI" for "Special Investigation" and delayed In the holding cages. Nevertheless, 70 percent of the immigrants passed in and out of Ellis Island and on to America within few hours. An unfortunate two percent, approximately 250,000 people, were deported bwk to their homeland. "Often, rantiHss wan separated, and many suicides wen committed at Bills," said Pttsnon. "Women would sonxtimes grt nurried right on the Wand to a man who had already Immigrated, just to have a male sponsor.

"In human terms, that's a lot of suffering," he added. The remainder stayed on the island, usually in the hospital, to receive medical attention and a decision on their fate. Living conditions and the hospital care on the island were excellent, and the immigrants had access to the food hall, a recreation room, a library, and a place of worship. Once released, the immigrants were often taken advantage of by corrupt officials. Before 1902, the immigrants received only about 10 percent of the actual value when exchanging their money.

In return for bills, the immigrants would sometimes be given bottkeaps and gum wrappers, not knowing that these items would hardly be able to buy anything, The immigrants were also rerouted! when purchasing train tickets so that more money was made. About two-thirds went to the West, while one-third of the went to New York City. "A man recently discovered, 30 years afterwards, that he had been sent to Houston, Texas, instead of Houston Street in New York City, where he was supposed to go," laid Peterson. "He was thankful that he was sent to Texas." The renovation, which began in September of 1977, Is expected to be con (Please see EUs on page 14.) Bernards Twp.
