-UPDATE ON CAMPAIGN FOR A CIVIL RIGHTS INVESTIGATION- Keep those letters coming, and continue to call the DoJ every Thursday (see link for phone number and also where to send in petitions). We find that delivering the petitions/letters is the most dramatic and public way of doing this so please do not send them in on your own. Send them to the PO Box listed. All indications are that it will take a lot of determination, hard work, and seriousness to get the DoJ to budge. We will continue the grassroots work, and we are honing are legal arguments based on strong and expert advice. We are determined to do what is necessary. We appreciate the tremendous support people have given this campaign. About 75 people from New York City managed to get down to 33rd and 8th Avenue at 5 AM (!!!) on April 26, and many had to skip work at this difficult economic moment to get on that bus. Others came from Albany, Pittsburg, and even France (Mireille Fanon Mendes-France (daughter of Frantz Fanon). Philly folks stopped in Maryland to pick up as many people as they could when the NY bus broke down. We waited for the others to arrive a few hours late, and then marched together with great spirit to the DoJ, where strong statements were made by participants when we got there. (See the video footage of all of this.) Those who couldn't come contributed in other ways: gave money to subsidize people who could not afford to pay, did outreach work, prepared our breakfast/lunch food, or designed banners for us. People showed their love for Mumia and their commitment to the struggle to free him in whatever way they could. Our movement is strong, very dedicated, and truly inspiring. Ona Move! A luta continua!
