Mumia Abu-Jamal to Release New Book

Mumia Abu-Jamal to Release New Book

Even as he continues to fight to prove his innocence, the nation’s most famous death row inmate has penned a new book. “Jailhouse Lawyers: Prisoners Defending Prisoners v. the USA” is about prison inmates who have taught themselves about the intricacies of the US justice system to fight for their freedom and the freedom of others.

Mumia describes his book: “This is the story of law learned, not in the ivory towers of multi-billion-dollar endowed universities [but] in the bowels of the slave-ship, in the hidden, dank dungeons of America … It is law learned in a stew of bitterness, under the constant threat of violence, in places where millions of people live, but millions of others wish to ignore or forget. It is law written with stubs of pencils, or with four-inch-long rubberized flex-pens, with grit, glimmerings of brilliance, and with clear knowledge that retaliation is right outside the cell door. It is a different perspective on the law, written from the bottom, with a faint hope that a right may be wronged, an injustice redressed. It is Hard Law.”

    Free Mumia! The case for his freedom has so much evidence supporting him while the case against him is easily destroyed by the case for him! FREE MUMIA ABU JAMAL!

    Our Father, Who art in heaven, hallowed be Thy name. Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.

    A prayer said for Officer Danny Faulkner.

    While I will stand tall beside those that fight for freedom of the voiceless I cannot condone, nor understand, those that feel freedom should be bestowed upon individuals who steal and destroy the lives of the innocent.

    No longer must we account for accountability it would seem.

    “On December 9, 1981, at approximately 3:55 a.m., Officer Danny Faulkner, a five year veteran of the Philadelphia Police Department, made a traffic stop at Locust Street near Twelfth Street. The car stopped by Officer Faulkner was being driven by William Cook. After making the stop, Danny called for assistance on his police radio and requested a police wagon to transport a prisoner. Unbeknownst to him, William Cook’s brother, Wesley (aka Mumia Abu-Jamal) was across the street. As Danny attempted to handcuff William Cook, Mumia Abu-Jamal ran from across the street and shot the officer in the back. Danny turned and was able to fire one shot that struck Abu-Jamal in the chest; the wounded officer then fell to the pavement. Mumia Abu-Jamal stood over the downed officer and shot at him four more times at close range, striking him once directly in the face. Mumia Abu-Jamal was found still at the scene of the shooting by officers who arrived there within seconds. The murderer was slumped against the curb in front of his brother’s car. In his possession was a .38 caliber revolver that records showed Mumia had purchased months earlier. The chamber of the gun had five spent cartridges. A cab driver, as well as other pedestrians, had witnessed the brutal slaying and identified Mumia Abu-Jamal as the killer both at the scene and during his trial. On July 2, 1982, after being tried before a jury of ten whites and two blacks, Mumia Abu-Jamal was convicted of murdering Officer Danny Faulkner. The next day, the jury sentenced him to death after deliberating for four hours. The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania heard the defendant’s appeals and upheld the conviction on March 6, 1989.”

    Mumia Abu-Jamal had his rights taken away by a racist judge, who denied him the right to represent himself in his case. He was assigned an attorney that wasn’t following Mumia’s instruction and didn’t properly represent him.
    Nowadays, almost every witness that testified against Mumia have came out and said that they were unsure if whether or not they saw him commit the crime. Also, some of those “witnesses” later confirmed the running man theory
    There we’re also no tests taken to prove that Mumia handled or fired the weapon himself.
    I may not know the whole story… I wasn’t there.
    But I BELIEVE that Mumia’s rights were taken from him and that he was wrongfully convicted.
    FREE MUMIA!!!!

    AmericAnarchy, you are dead on. I agree with what you say totally.
    I, personally think that Mumia is innocent. Either way I read the book and it is very interesting. I think eveyone who likes this site should read it.

    My Brother we are at war until you are free. The prisons are full of people who have no reason for being their. The ones who should be there are the ones who put thousands of innocent people free. The Judge of Justice is coming soon and the first shall be last and the last shall be first. There is no justice us in America there is only just-us Masons and we all know who started the Klan. Read Morals and Dogma by Albert Pike. White Hooded Judges are all over this Land. Educate yourself and then spread the word, take action. Turn on the light the cockaroaches will run.
