Lou Hartman talks with Karen and Joe Mulloy about the work of the Southern Conference Educational Fund in Pike County, Tennessee, the hazards of strip mining, their work with poor people in Appalachia to fight coal corporations, and the opposition they have received. The Mulloys were arrested for sedition a year previously, and though the charge was thrown out of court, Joe was ordered to enter the army. When he refused induction, he was sentenced to 5 years and a $10,000 fine. His case was on appeal at the time this interview was recorded.
