Mumia's legal appeal, which proves that he did not get a fair trial, is being reviewed before the highest court under the U.S. Supreme Court; Oral arguments will be held in the next few months.

The City Council of Philadelphia and the State of Pennsylvania Senate and Assembly passed resolutions this past May insisting that France withdraw the naming of a street after Mumia, and that Mumia no longer has any right to appeal, in direct contradiction of his being granted the right to do so before the Third circuit Court of Appeals. Remember the executions of Shaka Sankofa, Stanley Tookie Williams, Hasan Shakur, Frances Newton and others. Let's act now to organize to save Mumia's life before it is too late. 24 years on death row is an injustice Mumia is a national and international leader in the fight against war, racism and all forms of repression and exploitation. A serious threat on Mumia's life is a serious attack on all of our struggles.

Endorsers include: International Concerned Family and Friends of Mumia Abu-Jamal, NY Free Mumia Coalition, Harlem Tenants Council, International Action Center, Patrice Lumumba Coalition, IFCO/Pastors for Peace, Iglesia San Romero/UCC, Campaign to End the Death Penalty, FIST - Fight Imperialism, Stand Together-youth group and others
