- This audio recording features an interview with Joseph E. Lowery and Nicaraguan Assemblyman Ray Hooker. In the interview, Joseph E. Lowery and Ray Hooker discuss the policies of Ronald Reagan, foreign relations, and the Nicaraguan government. Lowery emphasizes the hope of getting Reagan out of office, using the U.N. Assembly to share knowledge about the issues in Nicaragua, and sponsoring hearings with religious communities to address the Boland Amendment, casualties of war, Black communities, religious freedom, and the education of health and agricultural needs. In the recording, Lowery is heard to speak and then a translator repeats his replies in Spanish; Hooker's replies are translated from Spanish to English.
