The ANSWER Coalition is co-sponsoring this important event for Mumia Abu-Jamal:

Come to D.C. to demand a civil rights investigation in the case of Mumia Abu-Jamal

Thursday, November 12

 11am: Press Conference at New York Avenue Presbyterian Church
(1313 New York Avenue, Washington, D.C.)

March to the Justice Department

1:30pm: Delivery of Letters to Attorney General Eric Holder at the Justice Department (Pennsylvania Ave. between 9th and 10th Sts. NW)

We demand that the Justice Department conduct a civil rights investigation into the 28-year conspiracy—organized through police, prosecutorial, and judicial criminal misconduct—to railroad Mumia, an innocent man, to death. As U.S. Attorney General, Eric Holder, has the duty to monitor and remedy racist and corrupt practices in law enforcement and to safeguard our civil rights. He can challenge the Philly DA’s outrageous pursuit of Mumia’s execution and Governor Rendell’s promise to sighn the death warrant. A civil rights investigation could lead to Mumia’s release!
