“Without Struggle There is Nothing”–Mumia Abu-Jamal Speaks From Death Row About His Case, Prison Reform and ‘Jailhouse Lawyers’
We speak with author, journalist and death row prisoner, Mumia Abu-Jamal. Speaking from his Pennsylvania jail cell, Abu-Jamal calls the recent Supreme Court recent decision to deny his appeal to overturn his conviction “Kafkaesque.” He goes on to say, “The fight goes on…without struggle there is no progress…without struggle there is nothing.” Abu-Jamal’s new book is, “Jailhouse Lawyers: Prisoners Defending Prisoners v. the USA" published by City Lights Books, City Lights Books
