 Refreshments. \n\nMumia Abu-Jamal is an award-winning journalist & innocent 
 Pennsylvania 26 year death row inmate. Framed by a racist criminal 
 "justice" system in a 1982 trial that has been repudiated by Amnesty 
 International, the European Parliament, the California Labor Federation, SF 
 Labor Council, AFSCME, SEIU, ILWU, NUPW, Alice Walker, E.L. Doctorow, 
 Nelson Mandela, Norman Mailer, Angela Davis, the past French President 
 Jacques Chirac and the Detroit, SF, Berkeley city governments, Mumia's case 
 is rapidly approaching it's legal conclusion. He has defeated repeated 
 attempts at his execution by state authorities. After presenting to the 
 courts and to millions around the world the irrefutable facts proving his 
 innocence, his appeal for a new trial (that can only lead to his freedom) 
 is pending. A decision is imminent. While the state presses for his murder 
 by lethal injection we fight for his freedom. His struggle for fundamental 
 human and democratic rights, for civil liberties, and freedom is the 
 struggle of all those who cherish social justice. For additional
