On Monday morning, April 8, 2002, several supporters of death-row political prisoner Mumia Abu-Jamal had a preliminary hearing for charges against them relating to the police attack of the December 8, 2001 Philadelphia demonstration for Mumia. While some charges are not being continued, many other charges are still being levied against the protesters who were arrested and beaten on December 8. Please contact the International Concerned Family and Friends of Mumia Abu-Jamal for more information:

What a cool pic of these anarchists/protesters standing in the middle of the street and fighting for a cause!!! Too bad they did not get whacked by an oncoming car.

Due to the fact that they look like a bunch of punk ass criminals, I really doubt that they could gather any support for their cause anyway.
