Mumia Abu-Jamal: "We Are Fighting for a New Trial"

Posted on September 10, 2007. In July 2007, Margaret Prescod conducted interviews with Mumia Abu-Jamal lead attorney Robert R. Bryan, veteran Philadelphia journalist Linn Washington, book author Dave Lindorff, and others. These interviews took place in the wake of the important May 2007 court hearings on the case of Mumia Abu-Jamal.

This file is an illustrated transcript of that interview.
