He has been in prison for over 40 years for a crime he did not commit for his outspoken defense of black people of people who are struggling against the US government against gentrification and he was framed and he was set up at a time when the the Philadelphia Police Department and government was rampant with KKK members and and white council members but now it is a very even more critical time for Mumia because he is 67 years old and he has incredible health problems that were developed inside. And it's important that you all know that Mumia is innocent and that we will rally around his freedom with him having his heart surgery and then with his chain shackles on his hospital bed. And it's important to talk about Mumia as a journalist because you know his skill as a journalist first of all was recognized at one point he was you know the head of the Philadelphia Association of Black Journalists I mean this isn't a war-winning journalist but he was also uh he was one of the few people in Philadelphia who was doing sympathetic coverage of the Mu family who was under siege by the racist Philadelphia Police Department and you know and they would move of course would go on to be bombed those who weren't bombed would were railroaded into prison he had to move nine you know they were eventually released after years and things like this but Mumia was shining a light on what was happening with the Mu family and as a result was shining a light on the long-running issue of racist police terror inside Philadelphia and so we also have to understand the connection between racist police terror and the suppression of political dissent that the police are in place to do as well.
