July 3rd is the 40th anniversary of Mumia’s unjust conviction, a clear frame-up by a corrupt police occupation. We are in court with a new legal appeal based on recently discovered and suppressed evidence in his case. We are continuing the 40-year struggle to win his freedom. This is a struggle that overturned his death sentence, won his release from solitary confinement, gained him hepatitis C treatment, heart, and eye surgery, and more recently restored treatment of his severe skin condition. Now we need to continue this struggle to overturn his wrongful conviction and incarceration!!

We will be gathering on the corner of 17th Street and Union Square East (Park Avenue South) in Manhattan starting at 9:30 AM on Sunday, July 3, 2022, planning to depart at about 10 AM to travel to and from a major rally in Philadelphia for Mumia Abu-Jamal!!

At the current time, due to the ongoing public health crisis, we plan to only fill every other seat on the vehicles (buses and vans) going down that day. We also ask that everyone plan to get a COVID test 2 to 5 days before the trip, in solidarity with each other, and plan to remain masked while in the vehicles. We are therefore asking for a $50 donation to cover the costs of arranging the event transportation. If the public health situation changes by early July, and we are able to safely fill the vehicles to a larger degree, we will be offering partial refunds of this amount proportional to the increased attendance, or you can choose to donate this difference to our struggle.

Scholarships will be available for anyone who needs help affording the trip. No one who wants to go to this rally to support Mumia Abu-Jamal should hesitate to participate because of finances. We have many supporters who are always glad to help finance these scholarships.
