The activists, who dare not use their full names, were sponsored by Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch on a seven-city tour to network with their U.S. counterparts and confab with government officials. As their conversation with This Way Out's LUCIA CHAPPELLE continues (to conclude next week), they talk about the one aspect of their struggle that has made international headlines [intro music from "Get Up, Stand Up" by PETER TOSH]. . . . . . . . 7:50 [www.jflag.org] SEGMENT #3 - "TWO" I.D. by comedian MARGARET CHO [:15] + With tongue in cheek (excerpts from "The Muffin Song" and "Battle Hymn of the Intolerant" from SCOTT FREE's "THEY CALL ME MR.
