‘It’s now or never’ We must free Mumia!
By Larry Holmes posted on April 2, 2021
These slightly edited comments were given during the March 18 Workers World Party webinar, “Mumia Abu-Jamal
: The Only Treatment is His Freedom!”
A quarter of a century ago, in the summer of 1995, Mumia was facing an execution date. That date was Aug. 17, [the birthday of Black Nationalist leader, Marcus Garvey]. We had one mission for the movement to stop the execution. And through mass mobilization, through a lot of unity and a lot of coordination, we helped stop that execution. We did it.

Since then, it’s been a long quarter of a century, almost 26 years. We have raised a bold, never ending, sometimes frustrating and disheartening struggle to free comrade Mumia, our political prisoner in jail, who was almost killed fighting for the freedom of the Black nation.
