A veteran Philadelphia journalist who has been covering the case of Mumia Abu-Jamal for over 25 years, Washington, Jr. was recently interviewed by Abu-Jamal-News.com where he talks about the long history of media bias towards Mumia. http://phillyimc.org/en/2007/05/39473.shtml For the first time in the United States, Journalists for Mumia has published a newly discovered crime scene photo from December 9, 1981, that clearly documents police manipulation of the scene. View this photo on page five of this PDF version of our newspaper that has just been released: Because the 1981 crime scene photo taken by Pedro Polakoff is copyrighted, please do not reproduce the photo. The two feature articles of our first issue, written by Journalists for Mumia co-founders Michael Schiffmann and Hans Bennett, are expanded versions of articles by Bennett that appeared in the November 2006 edition of Z Magazine and other publications. Mumia’s Battle in the Courtroom presents the facts directly relevant to the May 17 oral arguments. In contrast, Race Against Death presents the explosive new evidence in Schiffmann’s book with the same title that can only be presented at a new trial for Abu-Jamal. Our cover story is a new interview with attorney Robert R. Bryan, and we are also featuring a new article by respected Philadelphia journalist Linn Washington, Imus Isn’t the Only Issue to Address which details the most recent FOP intimidation of Abu-Jamal supporters. Our next issue will focus on both the movement in support of Abu-Jamal and the current right-wing campaign to execute him. Stay tuned and please visit our new website. Sincerely, po box 30770, Philadelphia, PA, 19104 |
