Emergency Demonstration & Meeting / Stop the Execution By Medical Neglect of Mumia Abu-Jamal!
Rally at Adam Clayton Powell Jr. State Office Building
163 West 125th Street
Friday, April 10, 2015, 5:00PM – 6:30 PM
Followed by a March and an Indoor Meeting
The life of brilliant journalist, intellectual, revolutionary, and political prisoner Mumia Abu-Jamal is in great danger. Pennsylvania set two execution dates for Mumia in the ’90’s despite his innocence. Only the international movement stayed the hands of the executioner.
Now removed from Death Row, Mumia is once again subject to attempted execution, this time through medical neglect and malpractice. With no history of diabetes, and subsequent
to having three blood tests only weeks earlier, on March 30, Mumia went into diabetic shock.
He was hospitalized with life-threatening high blood sugar, but two days later was transferred back to the same prison that failed to diagnose or treat him even though he was still very ill. His diet is dangerous and his health is deteriorating. Once again, only massive pressure will prevent his death.
WE NEED TO KEEP UP THE PRESSURE!!!
Demand that Mumia be granted: treatment by specialists of his choosing who are outside the Dept of Corrections, an appropriate diet, and daily visits by family, friends, and attorneys.
