Stand with Mumia on his first day in Federal Court

In response to a request by Mumia's legal team, Ferderal District Court Judge Yohn has granted permission for the defense to file a supplement brief on the issues raised by the recent Supreme Court decisions on the Effective Death Penalty Act (the two Williams v. Taylor cases).

On that critical day Mumia will be in the Federal District court at 9 am on Sixth & Market Street in Philadelphia.
We must be with him in Philadelphia in the thousands.

The date will be announced. Be on the alert. Keep in touch.
