Fall 2010 Lecture Series “Plural Perspectives on Health and Health Policy”

“You Got to Prove It Beyond a Doubt”: Knowledge, Evidence, & Practice in American Indian Mental Health Services

Joseph P. Gone, PhD Associate Professor of Psychology & American Culture University of Michigan, Ann Arbor

Thursday, September 9, 2010 12:30-2:00 pm UNM Student Union Building Lobo Room A &B

Culture has become the ground for ideological contestations surrounding mental health interventions for “Indian country.” This presentation will break down, examine, and reframe divergences between the mental health professions and tribal communities in what constitutes knowledge, evidence, and practice with an eye toward validating and valuing the contributions of both western scientific and indigenous epistemological traditions. Objectives 1. Identify key limitations of evidence-based mental health interventions as they pertain to American Indians. 2. Explain how culture factors into resistance to evidence-based mental health interventions in Indian country. 3. Describe specific differences in notions of knowledge, evidence, and practice between the mental health professions and American Indian community life. 4. Provide an example of the value of both scientific knowledge and traditional knowledge relative to mental health treatment.

by Eva [email protected]

Albuquerque native Scott Car-reathers has been the director of African American Student Servic-es, or the “Afro,” as the students call it, for eight years. The organization tends to the students’ needs, be them academic, financial, social or spiritual.

DL: Even spiritual needs?SC: Even spiritual needs. That

means you can refer students to local churches, or you can bring pastors here or you can host bible studies within African-American Student Services … Our duty is to fulfill those needs in whatever way we can, whether we do that direct-ly or through referrals or different things like that. … That’s the ulti-mate goal: to graduate.

DL: So that’s a really personal thing you guys do here.

SC: It’s almost a ministry and a mission, to be honest with you. And that’s perfect what you said; It is personal. It’s personal for all of us that we ensure that we do that.

DL: You guys are like the surro-gate parents.

SC: That’s it. No, I think that’s per-fect. That’s what we act as. We re-ally do.

Carreathers said his staff is the strongest advocate for students on campus. When students are having trouble in the classroom, some-one from the “Afro” will go with the student to talk to the instructor, whether it’s about the grade or cul-tural sensitivity.

Academic adviser Cherese Fine said she helps coordinate pro-grams, workshops, presentations,

cultural events for the “Afro” and beyond. They focus on résumé writing, job recruitment and part-nerships with the Black Gradu-ate and Professional Students Association.

“We do the Winter Roots Festi-val every December, just an end-of-the-year celebration,” she said. “In February we have the black cultural conference. It’s usually a host of series of events. We have a speaker, and a gospel night where we bring in a gospel choir. It ranges each year, the stuff that we do.”

Carreathers said if these centers weren’t here, it would be an “inter-esting picture” for minorities.

He said there are 850 African Americans on campus, and his goal is to increase that number to 1,000 or more by 2015.

“I think UNM is one of those gems that people don’t know about, so we got to get those messages out,” he said. DL: We can do this off the record, but what did you think about the whole Locksley thing?

SC: Obviously, it was very un-fortunate on a whole lot of levels. What happened was very unfortu-nate. Very unfortunate that it was two African American men. For the University, it just didn’t look good. But the fact of the matter is I consid-er Mike a friend and I’m very sup-portive of him. I really believe that he has a really good vision for this

program, and he’s going to have to have some time to implement that. … (It’s) some self-inflicted stuff that he has done, but the media is harsh, and I don’t think they should be that harsh on him because Mike’s a good brother. He really is. I like him. I wish he could bring that back, re-visit it, but you can’t, so you have to move on, and that’s what he’s going to do. That doesn’t have to be off the record because that’s how I feel.

DL: OK. How did you end up in this position?

SC: I came to UNM in ’94. I was at Texas Southern University in Houston. A friend had mentioned UNM has some jobs, so I came and started as a recruiter. Then I went to academic advising. And then the former director was a friend of mine and said, “Scott, you really should apply for this position,” and I ap-plied for the interim and didn’t get it. So I figured I’m not going to get the position, but I applied for the full-time position and did a lot of interviews and a lot of praying and a lot of all this and that and, sure enough, I came into the position.

DL: So, in Texas, you were a stu-dent or working?

SC: No, I was working as an Up-ward Bound counselor. It’s a feder-ally funded program that attempts to enhance the academics of high school kids to prepare them for post-secondary education. But I loved that job. I really did.

UNM student Brittany Kelly said if she planned on going to Mexico, the provost’s warning would have affect-ed her decision.

“I thought it was good that they sent the letter out to let people know what’s going on,” Kelly said.

The drug trade isn’t the only source of criminal activity that creates hostile conditions in Mexico.

Schaefer said recent changes in U.S. immigration policy have forced citizens from Mexico and Central American countries to cross the bor-der without documentation. Many of those people have turned to the re-gion’s criminal organizations, which fabricate documentation or engage in human smuggling. Competition over these and other profitable activities among criminal organizations play an increasing role in Mexico’s violence.

The provost’s memo listed sev-eral helpful websites for prospective travelers.

UNM reserves the right to mod-ify or cancel a trip at any time in the case of emergency or if the trip desti-nation becomes the subject of a U.S. Department of State travel alert, travel warning or similar guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Pre-vention, the memo said.

In May 2009, UNM suspended all travel to Mexico because of the CDCP and World Health Organization’s lev-el-5 warnings, prompted by the out-break of the H1N1 flu.

Editor’s Note: Lobos Abroad is a regular column written by Daily Lobo staff mem-bers studying in a different country this semester.

It almost seemed like Concepción, Chile, didn’t want me to study abroad here.

It started with an 8.8 magnitude earth-quake Feb. 27 off the coast of Concepción, and it continued during my travels here; I had three flight cancellations.

When I arrived in Concepción, I could see obvious signs of destruction, such as piles of rubble and broken glass on street corners, buildings with collapsed roofs and others that were broken in half.

By far, the most shocking evidence of the recent earthquake is the aftershocks. Since I arrived, there have been five, to me, strong af-tershocks. And I say this because to the Chil-eans, they are nothing. The second night in Concepción, I was staying at the house of a friend, Oscar Díaz, an exchange student at UNM last year. I was staying in the third story of his house. I felt a vibration that eventually got stronger and faster, and I ran downstairs in shock/fright as soon as it happened.

“Did you feel that one?” his mother asked grinning.

I told her that I had and that I thought I shouldn’t be in the third floor in case there were more. And that just made her and her other son laugh even more. They were both sitting in the dining room calmly reading and watching TV, as if the aftershock hadn’t happened. Chileans are accustomed to the ground shaking and vibrating every couple

days or weeks. “During the day after the earthquake, there

were aftershocks all day. They never stopped,” my Spanish professor Camila told me when I first arrived.

For those who haven’t felt an earthquake, it’s like being on a boat going over large waves. The up-and-down movement isn’t as strong as the side-to-side, which generally causes more damage in a strong earthquake. In my 19-story apartment building, I live on the 12th floor, where the temblors (aftershocks) are es-pecially strong. I have a wall in my apartment that alerts me whenever there is an aftershock. It starts creaking as it moves back and forth.

The Torre Alto Rio Building serves as the most glaring example of the destruction in Concepción. It broke into two pieces, and both pieces are horizontal on the ground. Ac-cording to a paper, “February 27, 2010 Chile Earthquake Reconnaissance Team Investiga-tion,” published by the Earthquake Engineer-ing Research Institute, there are four build-ings that completely collapsed in Chile and 50 buildings that needed to be demolished.

There are streets in Concepción that are closed because of build-ings that have collapsed on themselves, or in one case, the upper levels of a 20-story building are pan-caked on one side. Many of these buildings are still sitting in destroyed states because there is so much work to be done and not enough demolition com-panies to do it. Also, some of the buildings are right in the middle of down-town, so it’s a difficult task trying to tear down struc-tures without endanger-ing houses, buildings and

people around them.It seems as though every sidewalk and

road is being re-cemented. And construction is happening on every street corner and in ev-ery building.

I live in the downtown part of Concepción, but when I venture out to the surrounding suburbs such as Hualpencillo, the evidence of destruction is even more obvious. The hous-es are much shorter (two stories at most) and closer to the water. The damage is probably because of poorly built buildings that, to me, look more like wood huts with tin roofs.

Volunteers help rebuild houses, and they roam the streets getting donations from pe-destrians. If you want to donate money to the relief efforts visit UnTechoParachile.cl.

In Tuesday’s letter to the editor, “Fire Lock-sley, so we can rebuild the team,” communi-ty member Sam Oden called for head football coach Mike Locksley’s resignation. Readers at DailyLobo.com debated the point:

by ‘Dave’Posted Tuesday“Look, it takes four years to build a program.

Like it or not, you don’t want to set a precedent of firing coaches after one season. I mean, look at the youth on the team. Those guys will gain experience and skill over time. So if people aren’t knowledgeable enough to realize that it takes time to implement a new program (you don’t want him sticking with Rocky’s scheme do you?), then they’re not football fans.

By the way, I’m from Wisconsin, and they went through it before Barry Alvarez was hired. Barry went 1-10 his first year, 0-8 in Big 10 con-ference play and went on to win three Rose Bowls during his 16 years at Wisconsin. He fin-ished with a record of 118-73. Sure, Locks is a jerk, but so was Woody Hayes.”

by ‘Ryan’Posted Tuesday“I honestly feel sorry for the players that have

to put up with having Locksley as a coach. He’s on a six-year contract, making $750K annually. Why the hell is my University investing $4.5 mil-lion in this? Especially when they ‘can’t afford to buy’ more than one pair of latex gloves per biol-ogy lab student.”

by ‘Loboboy’Posted Tuesday“The bozos are a very expensive hoax. It’s time

to pull the plug on the entire football program.”

by ‘regina’Posted Tuesday“If we fire Locksley, they are just going to

have to pay some guy even more, taking even more money from the University.”

by ‘Dick Spade’Posted Wednesday“UNM is lucky to (have) Locks. He brings

national attention to the UNM Athletic Depart-ment. His boys on the field give it the old college try: 72-0 at Oregon. It could have been worse, say 100-0. UNM is doing the world a favor by keep-ing Locks on the payroll. As they say in Texas and Oklahoma, sh*t (Schmid) happens!”

by ‘Lobo’Posted Wednesday“Locksley is definitely a high-tempered

coach who constantly feeds the media b.s. to make himself feel better about his lack of coach-ing. The players are constantly being tormented and threatened about losing their position on the team! A real coach finds ways to make the players want to play their role on the team, but not Locksley. Players don’t practice how they play; they play how they practice. Hint, hint.”

The UNM Parking and Transportation Services is launching a program to make alternative transportation more accessible.

Danielle Gilliam, program coordinator for the Trans-portation Demand Management Programs, said UNM is considering implementing bicycle boulevards on cam-pus, likely dropping the speed limit to 18 mph.

“Parking and Transportation are advocates for bi-cycles on campus. In our brainstorming ... we’ve been working on this for a while, and would like some feed-back on it,” Gilliam said. “The idea of making a part of Redondo a bicycle boulevard would entail traffic calm-ing and putting up branded signage to notate that this is a shared road space.”

Michael Pollikov, University planner and head of the bicycle program, said adding bike lanes to Buena

Vista Avenue and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Avenue east of I-25, and installing mid-block pedestrian and cyclist activated crossings at Buena Vista Avenue, Central Av-enue, Lomas Boulevard and Vassar Drive are among the improvements.

Pollikov said these efforts are geared toward reduc-ing student and faculty members’ dependence on cars.

To date, ABQ Ride’s free bus pass program has been the most successful program, and students have taken advantage of the system, Gilliam said. The transporta-tion department recorded nearly 1 million rides during the 2009-2010 school year.

UNM also partners with ZipCar, a car-sharing pro-gram that allows people to rent cars by the hour. Zip-Cars memberships are available for $35 a year, or can be rented daily for $8 per hour. That includes gas and insurance. There are three cars available on campus, one by Coronado Hall, one at A Lot and one behind Scholes Hall.

Gov rejects Prop 8 appealby Lisa Leff

Associated Press

SAN FRANCISCO — Califor-nia’s governor does not have the legal duty to appeal the recent ruling that overturned the state’s same-sex marriage ban, a lawyer for Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger said Wednesday.

In a letter requested by the Cal-ifornia Supreme Court, counsel Andrew Stroud said the governor, “like any litigant, has complete discretion over his own litigation strategy, including whether or not to appeal an order.”

The letter came in response to an effort by a conservative legal group to force Schwarzenegger and Attorney General Jerry Brown to challenge a federal judge’s Aug. 4 ruling that declared the voter-ap-proved ban unconstitutional.

The Pacific Justice Institute has

petitioned the Supreme Court to order the two officials to appeal Chief U.S. Judge Vaughn Walk-er’s decision to the 9th U.S. Cir-cuit Court of Appeals. The institute brought its motion on behalf of Joshua Beckley, a San Bernardino pastor.

A midlevel state appeals court rejected a similar request last week without asking for Brown or Schwarzenegger’s input. But the high court invited them to weigh in on before it makes its decision.

The institute maintains the at-torney general and governor are required to defend all state laws, including those passed by voters.

But Stroud said California law does not allow citizens to turn to the courts if they are unhappy with a lawful decision that is within a state official’s purview.

“Here, the governor exercised his discretion and decided not

tow file an appeal,” he wrote. “Al-though Beckley may not agree with the manner in which the governor chose to exercise his discretion, he cannot compel a different result through this action.”

Writing for Brown, Deputy Attor-ney General Tamar Pachter called the institute’s emergency petition “too little, too late.” Pachter noted that the attorney general also re-fused to defend the ban, known as Proposition 8, in Walker’s court because he agreed with the two gay couples who sued to strike it down that it violated their civil rights.

“Petitioner’s last-minute in-vocation of a constitutional crisis notwithstanding, the attorney gen-eral’s decision not to appeal in Per-ry v. Schwarzenegger from a judg-ment he agrees with is an ordinary and sound exercise of the discre-tion secured by law to his office,” Pachter wrote.

GOING BEYOND BLOCKBUSTER by Chris Quintana [email protected]

� e Guild is often sold as the only place to see “Indie” � lms around town, while other theaters just play blockbuster fodder for an easy buck.

Well, those people have nev-er heard of the Southwest Film Center.

Located in the basement of the SUB, the � lm center, headed by stu-dent Alexander Payne, strives to bring quality cinema to UNM that would otherwise go unwatched.

“I want to take this education I have gotten at UNM and try to give it back to the � lm community as whole,” Payne said. “� is is a re-ally excellent place to see � lms you won’t see anywhere else and just for fun. Film should be fun.”

And the student group does its best to reach that goal.

Recently, Payne screened “� e 400 Blows,” a de� ning entry in the French New Wave Movement. Later this year, Payne and assistant man-ager Carly Weiner plan to show “Nic-otine Bees,” a documentary about nicotine-based pesticides and their e� ects on bees; “� e Audio Visual Show,” which features live music in-terlaced with the � lm; and “Bride and Prejudice,” a Bollywood favorite.

� e aim is simple, Weiner said: O� er as much as variety as possible. “We usually show at least one documentary,” she said. “We show at least one current for-

eign � lm, a classic, a cartoon — just whatever we can get hold of. We’re pretty eclectic, and I think some people wished we showed more one genre than another. … But I feel like every-body can look at the schedule and � nd a movie they want to see.”

Of course, that desire to spread � lm lore comes with a cost. � e group is often mistaken for the Mid Week Movies crowd, a di� erent entity.

Payne, who has been going to the center since he was a child, said the process between the two is radically di� erent and based on the appeal of blockbuster � lms.

“Most of their work is already done for them,” he said. “We have to advertise for a lot of un-known � lms. We really want to de� ne a separate identity from Mid Week.”

Weiner said the center’s biggest goal is to establish trust with its clientele. “I feel people are like that with the Guild. Maybe someday people will be like, ‘I want to go

Matt Groening once said the mark of a good animated character design is that it’s easily identi� able by its silhouette.

� is is true of the Simpson family, the Planet Express crew and every character in “� e Adventures of Prince Achmed.”

“Achmed,” widely regarded as the � rst full-length animated feature in � lm history, tells the story of an Arabic prince who must � ght an evil sorcerer to save his sister, the woman he loves and his father’s Caliphate.

� e action commences when the wizard creates a magic, � ying horse and presents it to the emperor for his birth-day celebration. � e emperor o� ers the wizard gold in exchange, but the wizard declines. � e emperor then o� ers him any treasure in his kingdom. When the wizard pushes the king to assure him that any treasure can be his, the emper-or swears “by the Prophet’s beard” that any treasure is available. � e wizard, of course, chooses the emperor’s daughter,

and when her brother Prince Achmed steps in to save her, the wizard puts him on the � ying horse, which carries him o� to mystical lands, and the ad-venture is on, carrying the prince to battle with demons and an encounter with Aladdin and his genie.

First released in 1923, “Achmed” does not showcase Pixar-level animation. � e � lm was technologically impressive for its day, however, and the animation is frequently beautiful. All characters are shown only in silhouette on sparse or non-existent backgrounds.

� e silhouettes are artfully rendered. Director Lotte Reiniger designed a cohesive world with characters that come to life.

� e animation style may remind some of a less-colorful version of early South Park. � e characters were cut from paper and attached to strings, which the director pulled to animate them. � is style could come o� as crude (and may, in fact, come o� this way to some viewers spoiled by the wonders of modern animation) but is saved by rich character designs. � e king, the prince, the princess, a witch, the wizard, Aladdin and various monsters are instantly recog-nizable and each has a distinct style. A short scene where a court musician plays a � ute is es-pecially incredible — the way his � ngers dance over the � ute will impress even the most jaded modern animation fan.

One drawback of the old-school animation is that the frequent � ght scenes are unintentionally funny. � is is easily forgivable, however, given the age of the � lm and the

The striking silhouettes in “The Adventures of Prince Achmed” represented a great technological achievement at the time. The � lm, released in 1926, was the � rst full-length animated feature in theaters.

trust these guys,’” she said. Weiner said most of their “reg-

ulars” are not a part of the UNM community.

“We have been working real-ly hard to get more of the student body interested,” she said. “We have found most people just don’t know about us. Once they find out us they are like, ‘Wow, that’s really cool. I had no idea that there was something like that on campus.’”

That’s not to say the center isn’t growing.

Payne said for the first time local producers and national filmmakers are contacting the center asking it to play their films, as was the case with “Nicotine bees.” Before, Payne and Weiner relied on calling pro-ducers who were difficult to get a hold of.

“That hasn’t really been some-thing that’s happened with the film center,” Payne said. “We are becom-ing more and more well-known.”

Plus, the center has plenty of oth-er amenities such as a reel-to-reel projector that allows for screening of vintage films that other theaters can’t compete with it. And the cost-conscious should note the $3 stu-dent tickets.

“You can get out of here with popcorn, candy, soda and a ticket for less than the price of a ticket at Century (Theatres),” Weiner said.

beauty of the character designs.Animation fans are actually

lucky to be able to see this movie at all. The original print of the film was destroyed during WWII, but a sec-ondary print was recovered, miss-ing the title cards. The recovered print was also in black and white, which meant during the restora-tion, the slides had to be re-colored and the title cards re-drawn, follow-ing instructions found alongside the print.

The restoration is skillfully done, with interesting colors (one per scene, plus black for the characters, trees, etc.) lending a unique feel to each location the film takes place in. This film is rarely screened any-where and is presented here by the Southwest Film Center in the SUB.

The dialogue is sparse, of course — this being a silent film, it’s only expounded in title cards. The plot is basic, but that’s not really the point. The animation and the character de-signs are more than enough to carry the movie.

“Achmed” points toward a bright future for the Southwest Film Center and is a worthy opening animated feature to its season.

� e newest religious student group doesn’t represent a religion at all, but a “way of life,” according to its founders.

Brittany Arneson, secretary of the Student Dharma Association, said Buddhism is more of a phi-losophy or a lifestyle choice than a religion.

“We listed it with the religious groups because we thought that’s where students who want what we o� er would look for it,” she said. “I’m Christian, actually. Buddhism has helped me become closer with my God. � at’s why we say we accept anybody. It really does not matter.”

Buddhism is about quieting and focusing the mind rather than believing in a speci� c doctrine, Arneson said. She said Buddhist practices can help in all areas of life, including concentration in school.

“� is semester for me is a lot dif-ferent. I can focus a lot more,” she said. “You can pay attention to your teachers without focusing on, ‘What do I have to do after this?’ or ‘What happened earlier today?’ You’re just there. You’re very present.”

Dharma Association Vice Presi-dent Adam Quintana said Buddhist practices help a person focus on the moment.

“It helps me pay attention in school,” he said. “If you’re always thinking while the teacher’s talking, you’re not really paying attention to what they’re saying.”

Quintana said Buddhist be-liefs and practices are centered on meditation.

“� e entire philosophy of Bud-dhism is compacted into this one practice. … � ere is no stress when you’re in that state of mind,” he said. “We create peaceful emanations.”

Meditation is the art of clear-ing the mind and paying attention to the present moment, said Chris Livingston, the group’s jikijitsu, or meditation leader.

“It’s a lot about relaxation, actu-ally. � e point is to unclutter your mind to where it’s not busy and anxious all the time. You’re breath-ing, and your only focus is in and out breaths,” he said. “It’s kind of like yoga, but you’re not taking po-sitions. We only take the traditional sitting position.”

UNM students who frequented the Albuquerque Zen Center started the group, Arneson said. � e center is on Gar� eld Avenue and Yale Bou-levard. She said the group occasion-ally meets at the Zen Center, and the leaders of the center will lead med-itations for the Student Dharma Association.

� e group will teach stress-reducing meditation practices,

Arneson said.“I think the biggest thing we will

be o� ering UNM students is the fact that it helps with stress relief, like to a ridiculous point,” she said.

Some � rst-time meditators � nd it di� cult to sit still for extended pe-riods of time, Arneson said.

“� e biggest problem for people that are getting into meditation for the � rst time is the amount of time (you sit.) People can’t control their head for that long, which is sad,” she said.

But the Dharma Association isn’t all silent meditation.

It will also have social meet-ings for students to meet other like-minded people. Livingston said the basic meeting will consist of a “sit,” where members will sit and medi-tate for 20-30 minutes. But there’s more technique to meditation than simply sitting, he said.

“� ere’s more of a discipline to it. It’s about clearing your mind of all thoughts. … And then it’s about not having an ego. Your sense of self is just an illusion,” he said. “� e idea is to develop compassion for others.”

Besides having more compas-sion and � nding it easier to pay at-tention in school, Livingston has found at least one other bene� t of meditation.

“I’m really into playing guitar, and I noticed the meditation really helped with that,” he said.
