PRESS RELEASE
Mutulu Lives On In The Hearts of the People!
Transition Announcement of Dr. Mutulu Shakur.
The New Afrikan People’s Organization and the Malcolm X Grassroots Movement are deeply saddened to announce the transition of our beloved comrade and co-founder, Dr. Mutulu Shakur on Friday, July 7th, 2023.
Born Jeral Wayne Williams on August 8th, 1950, he was a loving father and grandfather, revolutionary acupuncturist, human rights organizer, and former political prisoner of war. Mutulu’s life was transformative to the many people he organized, healed, mentored, and inspired. Dr. Mutulu Shakur taught us that “people struggle for liberation because they love [the] people.” He will always be remembered for his continued commitment to an independent and socialist New Afrika and for his battle cry, Straight Ahead!
Information regarding a public service will be forthcoming.
