[icffmaj] The Attacks on Mumia Continue
The recent nomination of Debo Adegbile to the Department of Justice Civil Rights division has caused a firestorm of hate to erupt for the political right. Perpetrating the same lie that Mumia is a "cop killer" the Fraternal Order of Police has launched a full campaign to once again attack Mumia. No only has Fox news joined the band wagon, so has Philadelphia DA Seth Williams (R), PA Senator Paul Toomey (R) and PA Senator Bob Casey (D). All have used Adegbile's nomination as an opportunity to sure up their vote with the Fraternal Order of police by denouncing Adegbile's nomination due to his loose association with Mumia's case.
Despite the high profile attacks on Mumia via newspapers, message boards, and political talk shows Mumia supporters are unmoved. The tireless fight to bring Mumia home has created fortitude to withstand these attacks; which is only possible through consistent work. What can you do? Our greatest weapon against these attacks is concerted messaging to supporters and non-supporters alike. Make people aware of the facts of the case (check out Manufacturing Guilt on YouTube which provides an evidentiary synopsis of the case); hold teach-ins; respond to message board comments; notify the Campaign about articles written about Mumia and most importantly speak directly to Mumia's accusers. Please stay up to date about Mumia's case via the Campaigns websitewww.bringmumiahome.com.
