Mumia Abu-Jamal has spent the last forty-two of his seventy years on Earth behind the bars of a Pennsylvania state prison, twenty-nine and a half of those on Death Row based on a dubious and extremely flawed and biased conviction for murder. Today, we explore his story and what it tells us about what Ralph calls our “criminal injustice system.” We speak to Noelle Hanranah, the founder and legal director of Prison Radio for which Mumia has done thousands of commentaries, and Professor Joy James, political philosopher, academic and author, who has studied America's carceral state. Plus, we get the rare opportunity to speak to Mumia himself, who answers our questions from prison.Joy James is Ebenezer Fitch Professor of Humanities at Williams College. Professor James has published numerous articles on: political theory, police, prison and slavery abolition; radicalizing feminisms; diasporic anti-black racism; and US politics. She is the author and editor of several books including The New Abolitionists: (Neo)Slave Narratives and Contemporary Prison Writings, Imprisoned Intellectuals, Resisting State Violence, and Warfare in the American Homeland.[Mumia's] a treasure. And I don't want to make him an isolate. I think there are a number of people who have been incarcerated for decades who study and struggle—that's a phrase people use in terms of books reaching the incarcerated, but also the writings of the incarcerated coming out of prisons. They enable us to be able to learn and study with them. If not physically in the same space, definitely with the same ethics and the same commitments.Joy JamesThe way that I see what we're struggling against—which I believe echoes what Mumia has been writing about and talking about—is very complex, overlapping systems of containment and control in which poor- and working-class people are going to be the most negatively affected.Joy JamesNoelle Hanrahan is the founder and legal director of Prison Radio, a multimedia production studio that brings the voices of incarcerated people into the public debate. Since 1992, she has produced over 3,500 multimedia recordings from over 100 prison radio correspondents, including the critically acclaimed work of Mumia Abu-Jamal.[Mumia Abu-Jamal is] facing a system in Pennsylvania and Philadelphia, which literally does not privilege the U.S. Constitution. It's more interested in finality…So they privilege procedure over merit.Noelle HanrahanMumia Abu Jamal is an award-winning broadcast journalist, essayist, and author of 12 books. Most recently, he's completed the historic trilogy Murder Incorporated (Perfecting Tyranny, Dreaming of Empire, and America's Favorite Pastime.) In the late 1970s, Abu-Jamal worked as a reporter for radio stations throughout the Delaware Valley. In 1981, Abu-Jamal was elected president of the Association of Black Journalists' Philadelphia chapter. Since 1982, Abu-Jamal has lived in state prison (28 of those years were spent in solitary confinement on death row.) Currently, he's serving life without parole at SCI Mahanoy in Frackville, PA. Abu-Jamal's 1982 trial and its resultant first-degree murder conviction have been criticized as unconstitutionally corrupt by legal and activist groups for decades, including by Amnesty International and Nobel Laureates Nelson Mandela, Toni Morrison, and Desmond Tutu.I love it when I hear or read about so-called conservatives talking about “two tiers of justice.” Justice if anything is at least three tiers— it's one tier for white people, another tier for black folks, and a third tier for the very rich. Now guess who gets sweetest deals? I mean look, it doesn't take a rocket scientist, right? If you're rich in this country, you can get every break that you can afford. You can get the best justice, the best lawyers, and they will fight wars.Mumia Abu-JamalWhen prisoners use the phone or go to the commissary—every item you buy, every call you make, it's taxed. So what about taxation without representation, in this so-called democracy, where every voice should be heard, and every person should be allowed the opportunity to vote?Mumia Abu-JamalIn prison, the most important thing, the one thing that stops guys from coming back is education. The most important thing is education. I would even say what people need is a deep colonial education, especially in prison.Mumia Abu-JamalI never succumbed to calling our system a criminal justice system—it's a criminal injustice system, because it reflects raceand class bias to an extraordinary degree. The studies have been overwhelming on this. You don't see many corporate criminals in jail these days. You don't see many prosecutions. You don't see many investigations of the corporate crime wave that takes a far greater toll in lives, injuries, and property than street crime does. But then, the system reflects the power structure.Ralph Nader Get full access to Ralph Nader Radio Hour at www.ralphnaderradiohour.com/subscribe

Imprisoned Anarchist Toby Shone This week, we're sharing audio from anarchist prisoner in the UK, Toby Shone. Toby was arrested in November of 2020 after a car chase and during 5 simultaneous raids on residences in the Forest of Dean outside of Bristol. Toby was accused of being responsible for the insurrectionary counter-info anarchist site 325.NoState.Net as well as participation in the Informal Anarchist Federation – International Revolutionary Front, authoring communiques on behalf of IAF-IRF & the Earth Liberation Front, funding terrorism and being involved in the sabotage of a cellphone tower and having information on explosives. This raid and the case were brought in conjunction with the attempted linking of a diverse array of UK anarchist projects with terrorist charges via Operation Adream, which Toby understands to be conducted in conjunction with intelligence services from the Netherlands and German. The court failed to convict Toby Shone on these charges and only succeeded in convicting him of having and distributing hallucinagens and got 3 years, 9 months. Toby was then re-arressted while out on probation for having a cellphone and attending a prisoner support event. You'll hear two audios from Toby, first him explaining his conviction and situation during his first incarceration, and then you'll hear Toby recently answer a few of our questions and updating listeners about his recent re-imprisonment in HMP Garth, far away from his supporters in the Bristol area. Much thanks to Brighton Anarchist Black Cross for supporting Toby and this conversation. More information at https://brightonabc.org.uk. Brighton ABC and Tobys supporters have noted that he's been receiving pretty spotty treatment for his cancer and not getting a healthy vegan diet and so has lost some weight of recent. Tobys mail, including letters and books haven't been making their way to him at HMP Garth. It's requested that supporters consider writing Toby a postcard, letter or email to help him through these next 8 months or so before his scheduled release and to inform his crew at forestcase (at) riseup.net of the mailing so they have a record in case it doesn't get to Toby. Notably at that website you'll see information about an upcoming International Anti-Repression Gathering happening in Brighton from March 30-31st. There's information about signing up for the event at Brighton ABC's website. Argentinian Antifascist on Resisting Milei and Red Gym, La Cultura Del Barrio Then, we were able to get an interview with Nicholas of Buenos Aires, Argentina to catch up on what's been happening since the presidential election of libertarian capitalist Javier Milei. Milei's presidentialcampaign was highlighted by his claims to subvert the status quo of Peronism - a socially liberal form of democracy with decades of complicated contexts in the 20th century. He's claimed to be an “anarcho-capitalist,” although his policies since election have been nothing short of classic neoliberalism: cuts to social welfare, hamstringing of labor union's rights to strike and picket, and doing away with common regulations of capital. While Americans have sought to understand Milei by comparing him to former U.S. President Trump, Nicholas outlines how this comparison falls short. We also talk about the role of organized anti-fascists in expecting continued clashes with the police, the social space & boxing gym La Cultura Del Barrio, and how the call for a general strike by mainstream labor unions in Argentina largely fell flat.

This gathering will happen at 6:30pm on Sunday, February 3rd by the Craven Street Bridge over the French Broad River in Asheville. Kevin “Rashid” Johnson in dire health situation Rashid, minister of Defense of the Intercommunal Black Panther Party has surpassed the 70th day of his hunger strike demanding transfer to a lower security medical facility near where he can receive comprehensive treatment for his prostate cancer and is suffering dire medical consequences as his organs begin to shut down.

Here's a sample script and numbers to use and to share/post etc: "I am calling with grave concern about the status of Kevin 'Rashid' Johnson who is participating in the Red Onion State Prison hunger strike. He must be allowed to remain close to the medical facility where he accesses treatment for his prostate cancer and congestive heart failure. Please move him back to Sussex I or Buckingham. Additionally, the use of solitary confinement in the state of Virginia is cruel and illegal. I am demanding an end to the use of this practice inside your prisons.

Elder political prisoner of Lakota, Dakota and Anishinaabe descent, Leonard Peltier, has been in prison for roughly 47 years and at nearly 80 years old after this long behind bars, his physical health is ailing. His supporters are asking people of conscience to contact US senators and representatives to appeal for medical care for his eyesight and other medical needs, including access to a wheelchair. There are lots of backgrounds on his case, but you also can hear a February 17th, 2019 interview we conducted with Paulette D'Auteuil on his case. SAMPLE SCRIPT “Hello, I'm calling about immediate medical care needed for Leonard Peltier, a 79 year-old federal prisoner. His prisoner number is 89637- 132, and he's in USP Coleman 1. We need Sen/Rep _____'s assistance. 1) First, Leonard must see an eye specialist without further delay, as his loss of vision poses serious risk of him falling, and he depends on other prisoners to perform basic life activities. 2) Second, Leonard is in constant pain and has multiple severe health conditions requiring immediate and ongoing medical care. I am asking (Sen/Rep) to request an immediate transfer for Leonard Peltier to the Federal Medical Prison Facility in Rochester Minnesota (FCI Rochester) where he can get treatment for all of his medical conditions. I also urge the Sen/Rep to advocate for elder Leonard Peltier's release so he can receive healthcare outside of prison and be with loved ones and community. Aside from Leonard Peltier being innocent of any crime, immediate release is proper and humane given his advanced age and medical conditions. Thank You." . ... . ..

This week on #Voices Radio Eric and Channing review sis of the Best of Voices from the Frontlines Classic conversations and we're proud to add a new excerpt from Eric's Conversation with Keith Lamar. Excerpt 1. Mumia Abu-Jamal In this excerpt Mumia and I discuss the concept of Menticide—wiping out a people's historical memory in order to disempower them, to demobilize them. In this case, we discuss how the knowledge of movement leaders such as W.E.B. Du Bois, Paul Robeson, and Malcolm X has has not been transmitted to a new generation of black youth, or youth of any race for that matter. Excerpt 2. Diane Fujino In this excerpt, Diane Fujino, Associate professor at the University of California, Santa Barbara discusses her recent book, Samurai Among Panthers: Richard Aoki on Race, Resistance, and a Paradoxical Life. She describes the political influences that turned Aoki into a revolutionary nationalist who joined the Black Panther Party at the very beginning. She describes how he was shaped by the Japanese internment camps, growing up in Black working class neighborhoods of Oakland, and in his early 20s by his work with socialists of the Old Left, before he joined up with Huey Newton and Bobby Seale in college. Excerpt 3. LisaGay Hamilton In this excerpt, actor and activist LisaGay Hamilton talks about the political influences on her life that evolved into her left, antiracist politics. And she discusses the difficulties of getting work in Hollywood, let alone getting acting roles that are politically progressive and meaningful, when you are an actor who is black, a woman, AND have left politics. Excerpt 4. Aris Anagnos In this excerpt, Aris Anagnos, the Greek and Los Angeles leftist and a major supporter of revolutionary movements around the world, discusses the growing crisis of European capitalism and what form that crisis has taken in Greece and why Greece and the Greek people have been scapegoated. Excerpt 5. Alex Sanchez In this excerpt Alex discusses the life and political influences that took him from being a working class El Salvadoran immigrant and former gang member to become an internationally known peace maker and executive director of the L.A. organization Hommies Unidos. Excerpt 6. Keith Lamar In this excerpt Eric is in discussion with Keith Lamar about the life and legacy of George Jackson and the relation of his legacy to Keith Lamar's struggle to survive in the hell that makes up solitary confinement. Keith reflects on movement building beyond the bars.

Mickey and Eleanor co-host this week's episode of the Project Censored Show. In the first half of the program, Mickey speaks with Dave Lindorff about the remarkable story of Ted Hall, a scientific genius who was put to work on the WW II Manhattan Project while still in his teens, then gave his knowledge of atomic secrets to the USSR, to prevent the US from being the world's sole nuclear power. Lindorff also shares information from declassified military documents from the 1940s and 1950s about US planning for a nuclear first strike against the USSR. In the second half of the show Mickey and Eleanor discuss recent attacks against press freedom in the US, from the now-well-known police raid on the Marion County Record in Kansas, to other cases of government interference with media that haven't had as much scrutiny. Dave Lindorff is a long-time investigative reporter who written on topics from health care to the Mumia abu-Jamal case. His new book on Ted Hall, “Spy For No Country: The Story of Ted Hall, The Teenage Atomic Spy Who May Have Saved the World” will be in print later this year. He's also the co-producer of a new film about Hall, “The Compassionate Spy.” His online work can be found at www.thiscantbehappening.net The News That Didn't Make the News. Each week, co-hosts Mickey Huff and Peter Phillips conduct in depth interviews with their guests and offer hard hitting commentary on the key political, social, and economic issues of the day with an emphasis on critical media literacy. The post The amazing true story of Ted Hall / Mickey and Eleanor discuss press freedom – Project Censored – September 1, 2023 appeared first on KPFA.

Affirmative Action For The Rich, 125 Years Since US Invasion of Puerto Rico, Mumia on The Erasure of Black History

Dom welcomes in Maureen Faulkner, widow of fallen officer Daniel Faulkner, who has some great news about the appeal filed by her husband's killer, Mumia Abu-Jamal. Maureen Faulkner tells us the next chapter in the saga, saying that she'll get a much needed reprieve from this torture that's followed her for over 40 years after a Judge struck down the appeal, dismissing Mumia's case. Maureen tells, though, that she fully expects an appeal from the Abu-Jamal team, which would elevate the case to Superior Court. Maureen takes us through the horrible nature of having to relive what was the most tragic portion of her life, explaining why her husband's murderer should indeed remain in jail.

Full Hour | In today's second hour, Dom welcomes in Maureen Faulkner, widow of fallen officer Daniel Faulkner, who has some great news about the appeal filed by her husband's killer, Mumia Abu-Jamal. Maureen Faulkner tells us the next chapter in the saga, saying that she'll get a much needed reprieve from this torture that's followed her for over 40 years after a Judge struck down the appeal, dismissing Mumia's case. Maureen tells, though, that she fully expects an appeal from the Abu-Jamal team, which would elevate the case to Superior Court. Maureen takes us through the horrible nature of having to relive what was the most tragic portion of her life, explaining why her husband's murderer should indeed remain in jail. Then, Dom plays back a crazy incident from over the weekend that saw Philadelphia Police Officers surrounded by a mob of hundreds of dirt bikes and ATVs, with a car set on fire and other police vehicles with tires slashed. Then, Dom plays a game with his producer Dan, asking him if he could correctly answer some random questions by Philadelphia Mayoral candidates, such as their favorite athlete and whether or not they are in favor of ‘savesies,' a longtime tradition of Philadelphians saving parking spots in a snow storm. Then, during Dan Time with Dom, Dan asks for Dom's opinion on news that a transgendered individual has been signed on to endorse Bud Light, and offers his thoughts on wrestling as a whole after the WWE buyout by UFC's parent company.

So I can just talk in generalities because I don’t know specifically what Mumia’s legal team, Sam Spital from the NAACP Legal Defense Fund, Judith Ritter, and Bret Grote from Abolition Law Center are going…

The fight to free Mumia Abu-Jamal continues with Dr. Johanna Fernandez previewing a panel discussion on Mumia this weekend.  Mumia has been imprisoned since 1982 and renewed efforts are underway to get him his freedom. Following Dr. Fernandez, former LA city councilwoman Jan Perry explains her work with the city's homeless.

This week, Clearing the FOG speaks with two advocates for the freedom of political prisoners Mumia Abu-Jamal and Leonard Peltier. Mumia Abu-Jamal is waiting to hear if Judge Lucretia Clemons will grant a new hearing on his case that includes new evidence of corruption in the legal process that led to his false conviction. On February 16, port workers will strike on the West Coast in support of an international day of action in for Mumia. Noelle Hanrahan of Prison Radio talks about his case and the carceral state. Leonard Peltier has now served almost 50 years in prison on a murder charge involving FBI agents. Coleen Rowley, a whistleblower formerly with the FBI, recently wrote to President Biden asking for clemency for Peltier. Rowley discusses the COINTEL Program, which is very much alive, and the culture inside the FBI. Both call on the public to take action to free Abu-Jamal and Peltier. For more information, visit PopularResistance.org.

Today on Sojourner Truth, we bring you voices from a virtual press conference on the case of Mumia Abu-Jamal and the recent amicus brief in the Abu-Jamal Case filed by the UN Working Group on people of African descent. The International Body Observes that Racial Bias has tainted the judicial process up to now citing new evidence of innocence and misconduct by Judges and Prosecutors. Mumia Abu-Jamal's lawyers say evidence in boxes discovered in the Philadelphia District Attorney's Office by the new DA at the time, Larry Krasner in 2019 that show his trial was tainted by judicial bias and police and prosecutorial misconduct, including: withholding of evidence, and bribing or coercing witnesses to lie. As of the airing of this show, the plea for a new trial in the case of Mumia Abu-Jamal went before Philadelphia Common Pleas Court Judge Lucretia Clemons on Friday December 16th. Judge Clemons asked the commonwealth if they could confirm that there is no new evidence in the 32 boxes that relate to Brady and Bateson claims. The commonwealth did not confirm. So now Mumia's lawyers will be making arrangements to see those boxes and Judge Clemens said she would issue her ruling in 60-90 days. The press conference held on December 13th included: Moderator Associate Professor Johanna Fernandez who has researched Mumia's case at length and is executive producer of the film Justice on Trial: the Case of Mumia Abu-Jamal, Ms. Fernandez is presently Associate Professor of History at Baruch College, CUNY; the Honorable Wendell Griffen, state court trial judge in the Sixth Judicial Circuit of Arkansas, Dr. Vijay Prashad, Executive Director of Tricontinental: Institute for Social Research, Buenos Aires, Johannesburg, New Delhi, and São Paulo; Julia Wright, founder of the Mumia Abu-Jamal Health Committee and Board of the Richard Wright Civil Rights Center in Elaine, AR., Linn Washington, Jr.-- a Philadelphia-based investigative reporter who has covered the Mumia Abu-Jamal matter since Abu-Jamal's arrest on the morning of Dec. 9, 1981, as well as Mumia's grandson Jamal Jr.

In today's third hour, Dom welcomes Maureen Faulkner, widow of slain police officer Daniel Faulkner, back onto the Dom Giordano Program after being a guest of Doctor Mehmet Oz's during last night's debate. Today, Daniel's murderer, Mumia Abu Jamal, faced another hearing as his supporters continue to try and get him out of jail, with a judge throwing out new evidence from 2019 that would suggest that Mumia was not the killer. Maureen takes us inside the hearing, telling us how she felt as multiple Mumia supporters try to release her husband's killer from prison, telling that she'll have to be back in court on December 16th.

Full Hour | In today's third hour, Dom welcomes Maureen Faulkner, widow of slain police officer Daniel Faulkner, back onto the Dom Giordano Program after being a guest of Doctor Mehmet Oz's during last night's debate.

Maureen takes us inside the hearing, telling us how she felt as multiple Mumia supporters try to release her husband's killer from prison, telling that she'll have to be back in court on December 16th. Then, after Dom plays his Money Melody of the day, Dom returns to recapping last night's debate between Dr. Mehmet Oz and John Fetterman, reading back a review from the Philadelphia Inquirer which grades Oz as a 0, as if they did not even watch the debate. In the article, a writer targets Oz's pro-fracking stance, seemingly not realizing that Fetterman too offered a pro-fracking stance in last night's debate. (Photo by Mark Makela/Getty Images)

Classification: [History]   Mummies are human corpses that were prevented from decaying. Some mummies are naturally formed, such as the bog mummies of Europe, others were deliberately formed, such as the famous Egyptian Mummies. Today, we talk about all things mummies, including the goddam Europeans eating them.   -Sponsored by- Our Patrons at http://www.patreon.com/ovpod   https://www.ovpod.ca/

Today, Dom led off the Dom Giordano Program by discussing a protest in Montgomery County over Columbus Day and more details he's learned about drag racers coming to Philadelphia. Then, Dom spends some time discussing the race between Dr. Mehmet Oz and John Fetterman, offering an update on a potential coming debate. Then, Giordano tells about a federal complaint filed against the Central Bucks School District by the ACLU, alleging that Central Bucks has created a ‘hostile environment.' Dom explains why he's against this federal complaint filed, telling of the horrific nature of books and other materials being taught in schools which this is truly about, and not harming any community. Then, Dom welcomes Maureen Faulkner back onto the Dom Giordano Program. Maureen is the widow of fallen police officer Daniel Faulkner, who died at the hands of Mumia Abu Jamal, who's in recent years become a catalyst for the political justice reform movement. Dom asks Maureen about the incident she's constantly reminded of when she lost her husband, with Faulkner telling that most recently the reminder came after Senate candidate John Fetterman hired a ‘buddy' of Mumia Abu Jamal. Also, Maureen tells about a purchase by Brown University of Mumia ‘memorabilia,' and updates Dom with what she's been doing to try and continue to hold her husband's murderer accountable.

In today's third hour, Dom welcomes Maureen Faulkner, widow of slain officer Daniel Faulkner who died at the hands of Mumia Abu Jamal, back onto the Dom Giordano Program. Dom invited Maureen back onto the show after discovering that a new staffer of John Fetterman's is a huge Mumia advocate, continuing the trend of hiring the lowest of the low for his campaign. Also, Dom reveals that Brown University plans to display the papers and workings of the criminal. Maureen offers her opinion on both revelations, lamenting that her late husband no longer has a voice and the fact that she has to continually suffer through this emotional distress.

Then, after playing Dom's Money Melody, Dom moves back into a conversation centered on politics, telling of a meeting of Washington lawmakers in Philadelphia as they try to determine issues with the USPS after multiple reports of fraud. This leads Dom into a conversation of mail-in balloting, asking how, if we know there to be issues with the Postal Service, liberals continue to double down on the legitimacy of mail-in balloting. Then, Dom offers a potential debate strategy to Dr. Mehmet Oz after John Fetterman agreed to a debate, telling what he believes needs to be the main points of emphasis for the Republican candidate.

Today, Dom led off the Dom Giordano Program by offering updates on the local Pennsylvania races for the open Senate seat and Governor of the Commonwealth. First, Dom recaps his interview yesterday with Republican Gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano, telling what he gathered in the long conversation with the candidate who rarely gives interviews to media sources. Then, Dom offers some thoughts on the race between Dr. Mehmet Oz and John Fetterman, leading him into an update on a new staffer who joined Fetterman's team who has a very close relationship with Mumia Abu-Jabal. This story triggers a listener to blame Dom for keeping Mumia's story alive, with Dom vehemently disagreeing and explaining that the Left continuously pushes for the release of the felon. Then, Dom swings over to a discussion centered on the Biden administration push to forgive student loans, playing back a portion of his Labor Day speech in front of the labor unions that allegedly support the edict. This leads Dom and his producers Dan and Jim to have some fun with some mumbling from President Biden. Then, Dom plays back an interview from his Labor Day show yesterday with Doug Mastriano. First, Dom asks Mastriano about his repeated proposals for debates against Attorney General Josh Shapiro, in which the Senator demanded for fairness in debates which Shapiro seems hesitant to accept. Then, Dom asks for Mastriano to take listeners inside the behind-the-scenes of the recent Wilkes-Barre, PA rally with former President Donald Trump, with Mastriano explaining how much Pennsylvanians seem to love and support the campaigns and platforms of both he and Trump. Then, Dom asks Mastriano for some of the differentiators between his campaign and his opponent, with Mastriano telling of his stance on school choice in light of a completely changing narrative around public education. Also, Dom and Doug delve a bit into Mastriano's military background, and discuss the way that the Left has demonized Mastriano as an extremist. (Photo by Spencer Platt/Getty Images)
