Dear Friends,
Next Tuesday, February 19, is the birthday of political prisoner Albert Woodfox, one of the Angola Three. There will be a special meeting at SHAPE Center featuring Herbert Parnell, a former Panther from New Orleans who will share information about the Angola Three.
This is Black History Month and the Angola Three, like Mumia Abu-Jamal, Leonard Peltier, and Howard Guidry are political prisoners in the United States that are victims of the shameful and criminal incarceration of political activists; who dare challenge the status quo. We must know our history!
Don't miss this moving presentation by a personal friend and comrade of Albert Woodfox! We will also see part of a video about the Angola Three and sign a birthday card for Woodfox.
The meeting is being sponsored by the Houston anarchist Black Cross and the Texas Death Penalty Abolition Movement. Please check out www.angola3.org for more info.
"We must continue to move forward and do everything we can to outlaw legal lynching in America. We must continue to stand together in unity and to demand a moratorium on all executions. You must stay strong. You must continue to hold your heads up, and to be there. We will prevail. Keep marching Black people. They are killing me tonight. They are murdering me tonight." -- Excerpts of Last Words of Bro. Shaka Sankofa, an innocent man executed by the state of Texas, 6/22/00. www.myspace.com/nattyreb7
