Capping off a weekend of global celebrations of political prisoner Mumia Abu-Jamal’s 56th birthday on April 24, supporters gathered in Washington, D.C., on April 26. There they held a press conference, march and rally to the Department of Justice to demand that Attorney General Eric Holder launch an investigation into civil rights violations of Abu-Jamal, who remains on death row in Pennsylvania. Abu-Jamal faces the unacceptable options of life in prison or reinstatement of the death penalty, despite the many violations of his rights.
