MIKE AFRICA JR: the May 13, 1985 bombing of MOVE

Along with the new Mike Africa Jr. interview, this video features archival footage from May 13, 1985, including an excerpt of a police video of the fire taken from across the street, where a cop is actually heard joking that: "They won't call the police commissioner a motherfu**er anymore," followed by enthusiastic police laughter.

Born in prison, Mike Jr. is the son of MOVE prisoners Mike Sr. and Debbie Africa, who are both eligible for parole in 2008, after 30 years in prison, along with the six other remaining MOVE prisoners. This video is the first in a series of videos to be released in the weeks leading up to the Parole Hearings in April.

MOVE is asking for support. Please sign a petition in support of Parole:

It would be nice to be subtitled videos in several languages to be known by many people

Great idea! If you know anyone with the ability to do this, please let us know, and we'll post it up.

Anyone?

[journalists4mumia]

Glad to hear you appreciated the new video.  I honestly got shaken up "all over again" putting this together.

What better way to make amends for this horror than to grant the remaining MOVE prisoners parole.

My Allah is testing you, and will call you to account on the Day of Judgement.

As for Muslims- they are FIGHTING and defending theirselves in the name of Allah. And they are dying as Martyrs.

Unlike the so-called Moors who have done ABSOLUTLEY NOTHING for the freedom of Black people. Pathetic!

Malcolm X was a Muslim Martyr who Believed in Allah.

Black Panthers were martyrs as well.

Have we anything heard from the so-called Moors? Hellz no!
