International March 24-27 Offensive to Free Mumia Abu-Jamal
February 12, 2018 Movement
February 12, 2018
Dear Comrades, Friends, and Mumia Supporters:
As of today we are happy to announce that the organizations below have agreed to initiate the March 27th Offensive to Free Mumia Abu-Jamal expecting, of course, the many other organizations that signed onto the International Call to join us. Though the court hearing will be until April 30, we are asking all Mumia supporters to hold rallies March 24-27 to help raise awareness about Mumia's case as well as the cases of many other political prisoners and of mass incarceration.
We have set up an event page for the Offensive to Free Mumia which people around the world can now access, at freemumia.com. We also have a form, below, on which you can submit your activities/ events/ demonstrations so that we can post them.
To date, the French Collective has announced a very important contribution to this campaign initiated by The French syndicate of Journalists of the CGT (the largest and most widely recognized French labor union). The International Federation of Journalists, which has 600,000 members in 140 different countries, is publicly announcing its support for Mumia. Attached is the union’s letter to Governor Wolf..
And, of course, the court hearing will take place on Monday, April 30 so that all eyes will be on Philadelphia that day. Bus arrangements from New York City are being planned, and people from other cities and countries have begun to let us know that they are planning to come to Philadelphia on that day as well. We have received several commitments regarding people coming from France. Also, we got word that there is some planning for an activity afoot in Senegal.
Please let us know as soon as you can about any plans you may have for events or for coming to Philadelphia on April 30.
A luta continua, and onto a successful international offensive leading up to and on Monday, April 30!
