On May 17, the Third Circuit Court of Appeals heard oral arguments in Mumia’s case and there could be a decision at any time.

If the Third Circuit Court of Appeals rules to uphold the death sentence or denies Mumia’s appeals for new trial or a new hearing, the Partisan Defense Committee and Labor Black Struggle League call:

All out to an emergency protest
Mumia Abu-Jamal is an Innocent Man!
Free Mumia Now!
Abolish the Racist Death Penalty!

The day after a decision
Kluczynski Federal Building (at the northwest corner of Jackson and Dearborn)
At 4:30 PM—on a weekday
At 12 Noon—on Saturday

Mumia Abu-Jamal is a former Black Panther Party spokesman, supporter of the MOVE organization and award-winning journalist know as the “voice of the voiceless.” He was framed up in 1982 on false charges of killing a Philadelphia police officer. Sentenced to death based on his political history and beliefs, Mumia has spent 24 years on death row for a crime he did not commit.
