Judy opens this show by talking about the opening of the Olympics in Atlanta that week. She is joined by Judy Siff and Bill Crossman from Prairie Fire (PFOC) who are there to advertise and talk about the art show happening in Atlanta called Art of Political Prisoners: An International Art Show of Political Prisoners. The show had begun with the hopes of raising funds for political prisoner Mumia Abu Jamal. The show includes arts, crafts, and writing from political prisoners. They chose to have the show in Atlanta during the Olympics because of the massive numbers of spectators and PFOC's desire to educate people on the existence of dozens of political prisoners being held in the US despite the fact that the government denies that they have any political prisoners.
