10/31 Film Showing: Justice on Trial: The Case of Mumia Abu-Jamal

From The Free Mumia Abu-Jamal Coalition (NYC) :

The Free Mumia Abu-Jamal Coalition, in collaboration with the Riverside Church Prison Ministry, is very happy to announce that we will be showing the excellent new film produced by Johanna Fernandez of Baruch College and Educators for Mumia and directed by Kouross Esmaeli, Justice on Trial: The Case of Mumia Abu-Jamal.

Packed with exciting new interviews with Mumia's sister, Lydia Barashango, and journalist Linn Washington, the film presents the recently discovered evidence that totally challenges the prosecution's version of what happened on December 9, 1981, and thus exposes the lies perpetrated by the prosecution in collaboration with the police in their determination to kill Mumia.

A panel discussion about the film and the new evidence of Mumia's innocence will follow the approximately one hour film. Producer Johanna Fernandez will participate in that panel. The other panelists will be announced shortly.

Because of limited space, we ask that you call 212 330-8029 and leave your name and phone number if you are sure you are planning to attend. We will be keeping a list which will give those who made reservations priority.

DATE: SUNDAY, OCTOBER 31
TIME: 1 PM
PLACE: THE RIVERSIDE CHURCH, ROOM 411

This film showing and many others to follow is part of our intense campaign building up to November 9, when the Third Circuit Court of Appeals will hear arguments for Mumia's execution.

FREE MUMIA! ALL OUT TO PHILADELPHIA'S COURT HOUSE ON TUESDAY NOVEMBER 9, AT N00N AT 6TH AND MARKET STREET! LET'S STAY THE HANDS OF THE KILLERS! NOW IS THE TIME, SISTERS AND BROTHERS, TO COME OUT FOR MUMIA. WE DID IT IN 1995 AND 1999. LET'S DO IT AGAIN NOW!

For justice,and for the freedom of all our political prisoners,

The Free Mumia Abu-Jamal Coalition (NYC)
