Urgent Update On Mumia Abu Jamal, Dec 8, 2011
Submitted by copwatch on Thu, 12/08/2011 - 12:00amOn Wednesday December 7, 2011 District Attorney of Philadelphia, Seth Williams, accompanied by Maureen Faulkner, announced at a press conference that he was not pursuing another hearing to reinstate the death penalty for Mumia Abu Jamal.
This means that Mumia is now sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.
There is already talk about him now being moved into general population.
Some people may celebrate this as a victory but MOVE is not under any illusions about these treacherous officials, we ain’t fooled one bit by their deviousness. We see this latest decision for exactly what it is- A devious tactic to kill Mumia in a so-called different way.

[If you're a student, the whole summit is free; if you're not a student, the whole summit is free anyway- at least I've always just gone- no ticket collectors, etc.]
Ramona Africa is the Minister of Communications for the MOVE organization. She is the only adult survivor of the 1985 bombing of MOVE's house in Philadelphia by the Philadelphia police and Feds, which burned down 62 houses and killed everyone inside the MOVE house- animals cared for by MOVE, six adults, and five children.
Pam Africa is of the MOVE organization and is the Chairwoman of the International Concerned Family and Friends of Mumia Abu-Jamal.
Both Ramona and Pam are tireless in their struggle to expose this system, kindle revolution in the people, free the MOVE 9 (political prisoners since 1978), and free Mumia Abu-Jamal.
