Mumia Abu-Jamal #AM 8335 

Emergency Health Alert & Action

Mumia underwent a double bypass heart surgery on April 19, 2021. His doctor prescribed a cardiac diet and regular exercise for recovery.

To date, almost 3 years later, the prison has failed to provide Mumia with the required cardiac diet and opportunities for exercise. The outside yard is often closed, and he has been prohibited from walking in the day room. 

Mumia is extremely vulnerable. His severe skin condition has flared up, causing him great discomfort including painful itching 24/7. His heart and overall health are severely affected. The prison diet and limited exercise violate the standards of cardiac care and doctor’s orders.  

Keeping elders in prison is a human rights violation. Mumia is facing a life-threatening situation.

What you can do:

Please call and write these prison officials.

Call Monday thru Friday between 9AM and 4PM EST

Sample Script

I am calling because Mumia Abu-Jamal #AM 8335 and other incarcerated elders diagnosed with heart disease are being prevented by the prison from getting what they medically require for their health. 

Mumia Abu-Jamal #AM 8335  had double bypass heart surgery.

He needs: 

• A CARDIAC DIET three times a day that includes fresh vegetables and fruit, whole grains, legumes, and limited sugar, salt, and highly processed foods, and

• He must have access to do sufficient cardiac rehab exercise every day.

 Thank You.
