Join the celebration for All Things Censored by Mumia Abu-Jamal, edited by Noelle Hanharan.
Come hear:
Leonard Weinglass Lead attorney for Mumia Abu-Jamal
Noelle Hanrahan Award-winning investigative journalist and director of the Prison Radio Project
Michael Tarif Warren Noted criminal defense attorney
Will Villainova Hip-hop artist whose hit single, “Devils in a Blue Dress", exploded on the airwaves in the wake of the Amadou Diallo verdict.
C. Clark Kissinger Refuse & Resist! National Council. Clark has written widely on Mumia’s case and is a contributer to All Things Censored.
All Things Censored is Mumia’s biggest book to date with more than 75 writings, many freshly composed by Mumia with the cartridge of a ball-point pen–the only implement he is allowed in his death-row cell. All Things Censored, with an introduction by Alice Walker, also includes an audio CD with the essays banned on National Public Radio, along with commentary from Ossie Davis, Ruby Dee, Assata Shakur, Martin Sheen, Howard Zinn, Sister Helen Prejean and more.
All Things Censored is coming out at a most critical moment in the whole case of Mumia Abu-Jamal. With the petition for a writ of habeas corpus now in the federal district court, Mumia’s legal struggle is now measured in months, not in years. The next ninety days are decisive. This is when the government will be taking the temperature of society to see what they think they can get away with. With one voice, we must demand: The evidence must be heard!
All Things Censored will bring Mumia’s eloquent voice even farther and wider. Join with us to celebrate this important new book.
“Take a moment to listen to this rare and courageous voice, speaking from a place we all fear to know.” — Alice Walker
