M.I.A.U. and LAB News Service records, 1970 -- 1971

0.5 linear feet
The M.I.A.U. news service began in 1970 as a Roman Catholic effort to promote the spread of uncensored information on events in Latin America, founded by attendees of the seventh annual Catholic Inter-American Cooperation Program (CICOP). Its acronym stands for the Movimiento de Información y Acció́n Urgente, and deliberately evokes the sound a cat makes when its tail is being stepped on. In 1971, the group's name was changed to LAB Services, and it became affiliated with the National Catholic Welfare Council's Latin American Bureau. This collection contains articles, essays, reports, and minutes collected by the organization and covering topics including a Roman Catholic bishops conference in Puerto Rico in 1970, early lectures on liberation theology, articles on the church's struggle against compulsory military service in Puerto Rico, and snapshots of torture cases in Colombia, Brazil, and El Salvador. The majority of the documents are in Spanish.

I am only immensely disgusted but not yet indignant. I Stayed for a week with the Wadsworths, Young Miss W. is very handsome but not I thought so pleasing as the daughter Lizzy. My acquaintance John van Buren immediately came to me [on arrival in Albany] (expressed great regret that he was obliged to set off immediately for New York but he commended me to his brother in law Mr. Vanderpoel and made me promise to go to his father's on Monday.

To Mary Matilda Georgiana Howard, 17 July 1842 Box 1, Folder 7

I am going to plunge out of the region of posts and conveyances - If you have any maps that can at all give you an idea of my progress... I return to Toronto tomorrow, then cross by Lake Simcoe to [Pentaquishire?] where our canoe life begins. You are aware that though this may not be speedy, it is an eminently safe mode of conveyance. I liked my 4 days at Quebec extremely & increasingly. It is quite a place to give one the marathon & Jones feeling of Johnson & the effect on me one brilliant afternoon as I sat reading very well written accounts of Wolfe's death under the retired shade in a public garden, just opposite the pillar raised to commemorate him, the band of the guards playing at a little distance beyond... Then there was a full parade of the Guards for Sir C. Bagot,... to see those fine men... all brough over from the far Atlantic, marching under the banners inscribed with the victories of Spain, Waterloo, & upon the ramparts of Quebec beneath which with the loss of 45 men we transferred the dominion of a continent. The Patterson's & all other timber merchants bewail themselves over Sir Robert's tariff.
