In a trial that may be unprecedented anywhere in the world, an Egyptian court recently returned 528 death sentences to many supporters of the Muslim Brotherhood.
 In what is seen as the latest attempt to destroy the group, the military government held the mass trial over two days in the city of Minya.
 Amnesty International’s Mid-East and North Africa Deputy Director, Hassiba […]

 The mystery of Malaysia’s flight 370 has become the latest tool of corporate-media manipulation and over-saturation.
 Instead of reporting on facts and investigations, we get a plethora of speculation — rumor and frankly, fear-mongering.
 Why?
 The answer is obvious: ratings.
 Most cable news networks have received a doubling of their regular ratings.
In the old days, newscasts reported on what happened and occasionally why.
 Today, […]

 Dear Sisters and Brothers;
Dear Members of DC-37, Local 372;
Dear fellow workers!
 As I thought about what to say to you, a thousand thoughts flooded my mind.
I wondered about your children, and for some of you, your grandchildren. What do they know about Mama’s work, or Grand pop’s union?
 Do they know, even by broad strokes, the history of how workers suffered, […]

 With the annexation of Crimea to the Russian Federation, U.S. politicians have gone coo-coo, raising Cain about it, likening it to Hitler’s seizure of Poland, with Americans snarling about violations of International Law, and ‘land grabs’.

 BULLIES OF BABYLON
[col. writ. 3/7/14] © ’14 Mumia Abu-Jamal

The U.S. Senate rejection of U.S. Department of Justice nominee, Debo Adegbile for the post of head of that agency’s Civil Rights Division is, more than anything, the triumph of fear and lies over reason and fact.
 Adegbile, by all accounts, is an able, skilled litigator, who had been an exemplary candidate for the post.
 But the Broad […]

 The lands we arrogantly named the Middle East (one must wonder, Middle East of what? Europe?) are in disarray and disaster today, largely because of the greed, hubris and yes, white supremacy of Europe and America.
 Iran today suffers from painful sanctions, while those who ripped Iraq apart, who drove the forces of ethnic, sectarian and religious rivalry into furies […]

Black History 1
[col. writ. 2/13/14] © ’14 Mumia Abu-Jamal
 Every year, Black History is celebrated, from coast-to-coast.
Great Black names are recalled, their exploits praised, and February, the shortest month, staggers to an end.
 But what shall we say today?
 A month may come and go, but for millions of young Black people, they’ll know less and less, year by year.
 That’s because they have no idea about their history, […]
