An audience-packed room at Riverside Church in New York City on April 3 heard Mumia Abu-Jamal’s new legal team speak on the political and legal significance of the almost 30-year campaign to free this world-renowned political prisoner unjustly housed on Pennsylvania’s death row.
The lawyers who spoke were Christina Swarns, director of the NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund’s Criminal Justice Project, and Judith Ritter, professor at Widener Law School.
Pam Africa of International Concerned Family and Friends of Mumia Abu-Jamal and Suzanne Ross of the Free Mumia Abu-Jamal Coalition (NYC) also made presentations.
