There is a Haitian proverb that says, “You must have patience to raise the sun.” For Haitians that means, a challenging job takes time and patience. This is a truth well understood by the women (and men) in Haiti, the poorest country in the Western Hemisphere, who have designed and created extraordinary quilts. A selection of these quilts will be on view in “Patience to Raise the Sun: Art Quilts from Haiti” an unprecedented exhibition organized by Bennington Museum and PeaceQuilts, a humanitarian organization relieving poverty in Haiti by establishing and supporting women’s quilting ateliers. This exhibit will be on view at the Bennington Museum from September 5 through November 8. This remarkable collection of original quilts offers a rare glimpse into the fascinating and rich culture of Haiti, a country plagued by poverty, social and political morass, and the effects from last year’s (Continued on page 3)

From my Corner

...very disturbing... — by Susan J. Coons A couple of weeks ago a woman stood up at a Town Hall meeting and screamed, cried and waved her arms around, shouting that she wants her country back. She and dozens of others shouted, yelled, shoved their fists in the air, and wouldn’t allow the speaker his right to free speech. Do they like what they see when they go home and watch themselves on television? Do they admire the anger, violence and hatred they have exhibited? Are they proud of themselves? Is that what they want their children and grandchildren to see? I want my country back when I see this kind of behavior. It’s anarchy. Just this past week someone was restrained from entering a Town Hall meeting because he was carrying a knife and loaded gun. Another man was seen picketing outside a Town Hall meeting with a loaded gun in his holster. Was the gun for intimidation? What are they so afraid of? Or are they so arrogant that they think they can attend a meeting with a loaded gun? Do they have such deep hatred or fear of their fellow Americans or the government that they rely on the threat of a gun to express their point of view? Yes, I want my country back! How sad it is that so many elderly people are easily swayed by misleading (and often hateful) information spewed forth on radio and television talk shows. The Internet is a wonderful instrument for communication and information. It is also a place where misinformation, fear, and hatred are leading the discussions regarding health care. Lies are passed off as truths. For example, the government isn’t going to euthanize Aunt Millie just because they offer to have a doctor or patient advocate explain a living will, or a “do not resuscitate” order. The doctor or case worker is merely explaining the options one has. Decisions are left to the patient. Recall, for a moment, about how some members of congress, who are now against the health care initiative, stating that the government will interfere with your health decisions, were only too eager to interfere with Terry Schaivo and her husband, in the name of God, country and pro-life, insisting that her desire to not be kept on life support be reversed. Hypocritical. I believe in everyone’s right to protest. I’ve marched for equal rights for women in Washington, D.C. I’ve done my fair share of protesting by boycotting things like lettuce, grapes, and Nestle products. None of these actions were violent. None of them required me to be in someone’s face. I didn’t have to shout anyone down. Didn’t have to intimidate anyone with a gun. Yelling at the top of your lungs; screaming and waving your arms around; pushing, pointing fingers; shoving fists in the air...really, really the picture of an ugly American. Shame on all of you who know better and still behave badly, and shame on all of you who condone and encourage this kind of behavior.
