The program includes SUBJECT: US INVESTMENTS AND APARTHEID and Special Reports on COAL MINERS' STRIKE, PALESTINE UN VICTORY, ATTICA TRIALS, VIETNAMESE STUDENTS, LEAVENWORTH BROTHERS, and IWLU/PUERTO RICO. Included are interviews with Thami Mhlambiso, UN representative of the African National Congress (ANC), and David de Beer, a white South African "banned" by the South African government, in which he describes his personal experience of repression. Music on the program is Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika, the anthem of the ANC as well as of Tanzania and Zambia.
