Building the Movement to Free Mumia
On Tuesday, December 9th the International Concerned Family & Friends of Mumia Abu-Jamal and the Philadelphia International Action Center will co-host an event featuring food and a film - Racist Injustice - on the movement to free Mumia. The program will include open discussion on what comes next. Philadelphia District Attorney Lynne Abraham, known as the "deadliest DA in the US", is calling on the U.S. Supreme Court to reinstate Mumia's death sentence, despite the mounds of evidence of his innocence. If Abraham's filing is granted that would mean execution for Mumia without even a new hearing or a new trial. We must be prepared to confront this outrage and fight to win Mumia's freedom.

mumia
Submitted by jon peppers (not verified) on Thu, 12/11/2008 - 7:53pmAs to the above comment...there IS NO mound of evidence that proves Mumia's innocense. In FACT all of the Judicial courts review, both State and Federal, have AFFIRMED Mumia was GUILTY of murder. As to the DA..their office is only supporting, and rightfully so, the decision of the JURY of which MUMIA helped pick. INFORMATION...it is the JURY, in Capitol cases(murder) as this, who pronounce sentense...NOT the JUDGE or the D.A.
