SANE/FREEZE works through national and grassroots citizens' action to promote nuclear disarmament.
Sam Day, Susan McFlan, Bernie Novan and Seldon Osbourne are all participants of The Continental Walk for disarmament and social justice. They're taking part in the walk to make the public aware of how much money is put into military and nuclear weapons. As a group, they feel strongly about not wanting people's lives and their worlds to blow up around them.
Comedian and activist Dick Gregory joins Studs Terkel to discuss his new book “Dick Gregory's Natural Diet for Folks Who Eat: Cookin' With Mother Nature.” Gregory talks about his experiences fasting for both political and health reasons, and he comments on hunger in America, the power of the navy bean, and changing trends in eating. The two discuss the peace movement and Watergate, and Gregory shares his experience as a black man in the military. Gregory believes that how you treat yourself and your body reflects how you treat others.
