Mumia Still Gravely Ill-Free Mumia Now!




 
Mumia Still Gravely Ill
 

The life of class-war prisoner Mumia Abu-Jamal is in imminent danger. On March 30, verging on a diabetic coma, Mumia was rushed to an intensive care unit. His health has continued to deteriorate and prison officials have cruelly withheld needed medical treatment and adequate nutrition. Weeks ago, a CT scan showed abnormal lymph nodes which could indicate lymphoma.
As the Partisan Defense Committee noted in its 13 April statement (reprinted in WV No. 1066, 17 April), “The grotesque treatment of prisoners is exacerbated many times over for those, like Mumia, locked away for fighting against this racist capitalist order.” The PDC has contributed to Mumia’s medical care, and urges others to do the same.
