On the recordMarch 1, 1994
But when I was traveling in Sudan in 1989 with the late Mickey Leland, who was chairman of the Hunger Committee, he and I were there together about the famine in Sudan on the occasion immediately prior to the trip in which he tragically lost his life. He asked me to tell him the story about the day they shot up the House of Representatives, which I did much as, you know, the little 3- to-5-minute version of it. I concluded by telling him that I had later read back in the late 1970's, after telling him the story of the event, that I had later read sometime in the late 1970's that President Carter had pardoned the people who had perpetrated that event, and I had never known why.
