But it's not all clear sailing. In this CBC documentary, we look at the Norwegian model and lessons that could apply in our own province. Lanier Phillips For his resistance to and capacity to rise above repression, Lanier Phillips will receive an honorary degree during spring convocation. Mr. Phillips joined the United States Navy in 1941, when he was 18-years-old, and was on board the USS Truxton when it ran aground near St. Lawrence on Feb. 18, 1942. He was the only African-American to escape his ship; other black sailors who served with him stayed on board, fearing they would be ill treated by the locals and hoping they would be rescued by the U.S. Navy. From a crew of 156, Mr. Phillips was one of only 46 survivors. He and other sailors were rescued by the people of St. Lawrence, and Phillips was terrified that he would be lynched. Instead he was taken into a local home, put to bed and cared for by white people. This experience left Mr. Phillips with a new outlook on life, having been treated with dignity and full respect for the first time in his young life. Though segregationist policies were still alive when he returned to the U.S., Mr. Phillips was no longer prepared to be repressed by them. Despite discouragement and discrimination, he was accepted, trained and became the first African-American solar technician. He got involved in the American civil rights movement and marched alongside Dr. Martin Luther King. Mr. Phillips has since shared his life story with students of all ages. He still carries with him the lessons he learned some 64 years ago in the small town of St. Lawrence. Mr. Phillips will receive an honorary doctor of degree at the 3 p.m. session of convocation on May 30. http://www.mun.ca/marcomm/news/index.php?includefile=showitem.php&id=1988

Re: CBC NL Specials on TV - Apr 14 - May 22 after Here & Now - satellite info anyone - for those away? + Lanier Phillips
Listen Live - Lanier Phillips credits the people of St. Lawrence changed his mind from the the hurt and racial prejudice he experienced as a young man in the Southern Us and helped him and his children accomplish a grteat deal in their lives - a miraculous story - that Alan was considering making a motion picture about. (New online Radio Interview) http://www.cbc.ca/radionoonnl/interview_archives/2008_apr_w3.html See April 14 - Item # 4. Since his ship, the USS Truxton, sank off the Burin Peninsula in 1942 he has spent his lifetime honoring the kindness of the people of St. Lawrence. And now Lunair Phillips will be honored by Memorial University. The 85-year-old will receive an honorary degree at this Spring's convocation. Also as in last post: http://www.cbc.ca/national/blog/video/internationalus/the_ambassador_or_st_lawrence.html online video interview. I apologize for HTML code in prior post - I tried but was unable to remove it.
