FLOOD THE GOVERNOR OF PENNSYLVANIA WITH FREEDOM-POSTCARDS FOR MUMIA ABU-JAMAL.
ANGELA DAVIS calls for action:
FLOOD THE GOVERNOR OF PENNSYLVANIA WITH FREEDOM-POSTCARDS FOR MUMIA ABU-JAMAL
The '1 million roses'-campaign was 1 of the keys that opened my prisoncell in 1972, when 100 of 1000ths of people sent postcards to me, to express
their solidarity and demand my freedom, while i was in jail, facing possible death sentence.
My 2 years in prison were tough enough on me.....now try to imagine someone living there for more than 34 years! "A BRIGHT SHINING HELL", is
how Mumia used to refer to the tiny concrete bathroom he had to stay in for 22 hours every single day for nearly 29 years, while he was on deathrow.
At the end of 2011 his deathsentence was definitely found unconstitutional.....which even in strictly legalistic terms means, he should never have
been in this dark place to begin with. That alone should be enough for the Governor of Pennsylvania to pardon him.
Much is pointing to his innocence; he never received a fair trial and was not allowed to demonstrate his innocence in court.
Now he faces another kind of death-sentence; a life-threatening illness(active hepatitus C), for which he is not receiving the needed treatment in
prison, cause it's too expensive, so the prison-authorities rather see him dying.
Mumia and many other prisoners started a courtcase, demanding adequaat treatment; the outcome of this case is still unknown.
If he wins, he has made a precedent for the other 10.000 sick prisoners waiting for the right treatment.....
THE GOVERNOR OF PENNSYLVANIA HAS THE POWER TO GRANT FREEDOM TO MUMIA ABU-JAMAL !
so people, find cards in your local hang-out or come to the benefit on thursday 9 of june in joe's garage, where cards will be available or send a
postcard by yourself demanding adequaat treatment now and ofcourse FREEDOM for all political prisoners.
