Mumia Abu Jamal on the Occupy Wall Street Movement
Mumia Abu Jamal is a political prisoner and an award winning journalist. In a victory for prison rights advocates internationally, the US Supreme Court this Tuesday refused to hear a petition by the Philadelphia District Attorney’s Office seeking to reinstate the death penalty against him. If the Philly DA decides not to conduct a new sentencing hearing – which could raise new evidence in favor of Abu Jamal – he will continue to serve out a life sentence without the possibility of parole. Mumia Abu Jamal’s radio commentaries are heard around the world, enabling him to reach beyond the confines of prison to express his political views. He recently filed this commentary about the Occupy Wall Street protests.

The most eloquent description to date, that I have yet heard!
Mumia Abu Jamal is a ‘Born Speaker”!
Bravo to him!
He has truly tapped into the flow.
I just wish more people could hear this in it’s natural form.
I truly seems like America is on a race to the bottom, a race into Oblivian!
We need to wake-up and damn quick!
