Two hours before this radio show, US declared a cease-fire overseas in Vietnam. As explained in the show, the signing of the peace accord in Paris has started Vietnamese liberation, the release of prisoners, and the ending of the draft. However, there were still foreign military actions in Cambodia and Laos. Audio tracks of Jane Fonda’s speech were played to commemorate this monumental time in history. She explains that this loss for America should be a learning experience. After 34 B52s are shot down, Nixon finally feels he needs to negotiate an end. At the end of her memorable speech, Fonda urges Vietnam to have, solidarity, unification, gratitude, and a choice of politics.
