The lives and legacies of death penalty and breast cancer activist Martina Davis-Correia and her brother, Troy Anthony Davis, whose execution in Georgia in 2011 helped to reinvigorate the movement to end the death penalty.  We speak with Kimberly Davis, Troy and Martina's sister, and with Jen Marlowe, author of the book I AM TROY DAVIS. Why did Texas police search a school with helicopters after a girl miscarried in the bathroom? In the national panic over abortion, women seeking routine medical care can be treated as suspects.  We talk with blogger and women's health reporter Amanda Marcotte. And we preview the upcoming Fabulosa women's music and crafts festival, featuring great music, workshops, games, massage, swimming and more in a spectacular Yosemite venue.  We'll get all the info from Fabulosa cofounder, Judea Eden.

We make a surprise call to Mr. Fuller to get his thoughts on the murder of Troy Anthony Davis. Mr. Fuller stressed that thousands of black and non-white people are massacred routinely. Non-white people should adopt a codified, war time mentality. He reminds us that the System of White Supremacy requires that huge numbers of black people (non-white people in general) be killed around the world. If non-white people need a copy of Mr. Fuller's books, visit the website: http://producejustice.com #BlackMaleRapist INVEST in The COWS – http://paypal.me/TheCOWS Cash App: https://cash.app/$TheCOWS CALL IN NUMBER: 720.716.7300 CODE: 564943#

Dr. Frances Cress Welsing makes a special one hour visit to The Context of White Supremacy. Gus saw that many victims were in despair about the murder of Troy Anthony Davis. Sentenced to the death penalty for a crime he consistently maintained he did not commit, Davis's case attracted international attention as many believe he was wrongfully convicted and executed. A visit from the doctor should help us keep things in perspective, and continue the work of being professional counter-racist soldiers. Heads up melanated people; we have a lot of work to do.

Rebroadcast of archived show featuring Chinaka Hodge speaking about The Living Word Festival and Martina Correa who speaks about her brother Troy Anthony Davis, on death row. The warrant sets the execution between Sept. 21 and Sept. 28, 2011. The state Department of Corrections will set the actual date. Davis has been on death row for 19 years. In this interview, the execution date was set for October. It was overturned. Troy's birthday is October 9, 2011. Let's hope he sees that day. He has been at this point so many times, it is time for him to be released. However, Davis's appeals are exhausted. He is expected to once again ask the Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles to grant him clemency. The board has previously denied that request.: http://troyanthonydavis.org/   Money orders can be sent to Troy Anthony Davis #657378 GDCP c/o Georgia Department of Corrections: Inmate Accounts, P O Box 405699, Atlanta, Georgia 30384-5699.

Long Live John Africa! On a Move! Greetings to all assembled in honor of Jack Heyman, the longtime ILWU organizer and organizer for a half dozen other causes besides. Jack represents the best of the labor tradition, one not bounded by national borders or the other lines we create to keep us corralled into spaces approved by the state. I think the last time I saw him on the tube he was in London before about a million people protesting maybe the stupidest war in generations -- Iraq. Jack knows, as do we all, that our borders are a lot like prison walls that keep us divided and isolated. So he spent a lot of time and a lot of energy with his sledgehammer knocking holes in the walls. Oh, by the way, I KNOW, I KNOW that Wisconsin has him chomping at the bit. Anyway, congratulations on his retirement and, On a Move. This is Mumia Abu-Jamal. The International Longshore and Warehouse Union has defended Mumia Abu-Jamal for nearly 25 years, since 1985, including an action in 1999 which closed down all the U.S. West Coast ports demanding freedom for Mumia. This was the first port shutdown in defense of a political prisoner in the United States. Although the union did take a position to free Angela Davis in 1972 no port action was taken. And, the relationship has been mutual. Mumia has supported every strike and action of the ILWU including defense of the Charleston longshore union, support for the Inland Boatmen's Union organizing rallies at the Hornblower Ferry terminal on the S.F. Embarcadero, defense of the two young Black longshoremen victimized by police and security goons in the Port of Sacramento under the guise of Homeland Security. This is a message from Mumia in honor of retiring longshore member, Jack Heyman, who has been an ILWU organizer mobilizing support of death row and political prisoners Mumia Abu-Jamal, Leonard Peltier, Kevin Cooper, the S.F. 8 and Troy Anthony Davis; a leader in the struggles against U.S. wars on Iraq and Afghanistan and in support of Palestinian rights (shutting down the Israeli Zim Line ship in 2010 in the Port of Oakland); and international labor solidarity for the Liverpool Dockers and against South African apartheid. Jack Heyman is also a member of the Labor Action Committee to Free Mumia Abu-Jamal which organized a labor conference in 2000 that brought many union members, including a delegation of the Charleston longshoremen, into the struggle in defense of Mumia. Jack was honored on Feb. 25th for his leadership in the union and its struggles for social justice at an event which included many rank and file ILWU members, Angela Davis, Brian McWilliams, Leo Robinson, Howard Keylor, many leaders and rank and file members in the Bay Area labor movement, and activists in the causes of Mumia defense, immigrant rights, civil liberties, and Black liberation and against imperialist wars.

Today we had an exclusive interview with Troy Anthony Davis' sister Martina Correia, who has been standing for justice for her brother for 19 long years. Mr. Davis is scheduled once again, for execution Monday, October 27, by the State of Georgia if a stay is not granted. Davis turned 40 October 9, and though witnesses have recanted, and the absence of DNA prove his innocence, the 8th Amendment of the Georgia State Constitution, states it's okay to kill and innocent person as long as the courts feel he has received a fair trial. Mr. Davis is from an upper middle class black family, his dad retired military, and police officer. He graduated with honors from high school, a year after he was scheduled to graduate because he was caregiver for his sister who had MS and was paralyzed from the waist down. Since his incarceration, his dad has died--diabetic coma, the stress of a son on death row too much for him to take. Martina Correia diagnosed with cancer March 2001, has been on chemotherapy for all these years after her doctors dismissed her symptoms. It's a good thing she is a medical practitioner and knew what tests to run and where to get a second opinion once her suspicions were confirmed. Even now, Martina stated on the air this morning, it's crazy that she has to take poison to stay alive, while her brother is about to be given poison to kill him. The show opened with an interview with Chanaka Hodge, who wears multiple hats at Youth Speaks which sponsors the Living Word Festival, in its 7th year, closing weekend, October 23-25, at Theater Artaud, 450 Florida Street in San Francisco. Tickets are $5 for students and $20/25 for adults. At the box office if guests mention the password, "Race is Fiction," they get two for one passes. Call (415) 255-9035.

Featuring Martina Carrera, National Steering Committee Chair for Amnesty International's Death Penalty Program; she is also Anti-death penalty coordinator for the state of Georgia and sister of Troy Davis. Troy Anthony Davis is currently on death row in the state of Georgia. His story has garnered international support in acquittal and the call for a re-trail. In the United States it is not unconstitutional to sentence an innocent man to death if he has been convicted of a crime, regardless of whether the prosecution presented inadequate evidence. Please visit www.troyanthonydavis.org and take action now to end the death penalty.
