Watch this historic and important program, as we lay out the legal, political and moral grounds for political prisoner, Mumia Abu-Jamal, to be released from prison after almost 42 years or given a new trial.
During a hearing on Dec. 16th, 2022, Judge Lucretia Clemons said that she would allow 60-90 days for further examination of critical evidence in Mumia’s case. As we near the moment where a decision may be made, it’s crucial for our community and concerned citizens – including activists, clergy, educators, scholars and more – to gather and build so that the truth is told and Judge Clemons understands that she must do what is right.
