What to the Slave is Your 4th of July?

In this country, what does the word

 "Freedom" even mean?

America is involved in a war for empire

in the Middle-East.

Has it made people any safer? 

Any more "Free"?

We are free to pay $4.20

a gallon for gasoline.

Millions are free to lose their homes

 in the current housing crisis.

 

 

In Philadelphia-2008-

Freedom takes on a bizarre definition.

On May 5th- Fox News captured disturbing

video of more than 15 police beating, clubbing,

 and mauling 3 young Black men during a traffic stop.

This video is a rare glimpse into the routine behavior

 of the Philadelphia Police Dept- who have a long history

 filled with corruption and brutality.

 

 

The framing of Mumia Abu-Jamal is an example of this systemic corruption. 

 

·                    When Mumia was arrested the Philly PD beat him within an inch of his life

·                    The Philly PD mishandled crime scene evidence, tampered with evidence, and outright fabricated evidence

·                    The Police and prosecutors worked hand in hand to both coerce and suppress eye witness testimony

 

There is literally a mountain of evidence that demonstrates police and prosecution misconduct, and that shows Mumia was framed- found at www.mumia.org

 

Today Mumia still sits on death row- his case in the final round of legal appeals.  Mumia has remained one of this systems most vocal critics- and they want to kill him for it.  We must not allow them to take such a precious voice from us!

 

When:  July 4th, high noon (12:00pm)

Where:  The Constitution Center  5th & Market St.- Philadelphia

Why:  To Free Mumia- Demo followed by an organizing meeting
