This video contains raw footage shot for “Five Day Bicycle Race,” a project comprised of live in-studio commentary and taped edited coverage of the 1976 Democratic National Convention in New York City. Produced by independent videomakers calling themselves The Image Union (including many members of TVTV and Videofreex), it aired on Manhattan Cable for three hours per night for five days during the convention. In this video, Vietnam War Resistor Fritz Efaw is interviewed about fleeing the country after being drafted, his current work in gaining amnesty for others like him, and how avoiding the draft affected his family back in the states.
