=================================

JUSTICE FOR TROY DAVIS AND MUMIA ABU-JAMAL

NAACP: JOIN THE CAMPAIGN FOR A CIVIL RIGHTS INVESTIGATION OF THE CASE OF MUMIA ABU-JAMAL. WE MUST ACT NOW BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

In 2004, the NAACP voted unanimously (with one "nay" vote) to "reiterate its support of the international movement for a new and fair trial for Mumia Abu-Jamal." Yet the organization has done nothing since that time to ensure justice for Mumia. This April, the US Supreme Court ruled on Mumia Abu-Jamal's 27- year struggle against injustice and racism in the courts: no new trial, no hearing, no opportunity for the mounds of evidence of Mumia's innocence to be presented, no recognition of the widely denounced violations of Mumia's constitutional rights, especiall, of racial bias.

RESULT: Mumia will get either EXECUTION - WHAT THE STATE OF PA. IS SEEKING - OR AT "BEST," LIFE IN PRISON WITHOUT PAROLE, DESPITE HIS INNOCENCE.

Eric Holder and the Justice Department have the power to review Mumia's conviction and officially air the evidence that can overturn it! The NAACP, as the oldest civil rights organization in this country, has to live up to its promise of 2004 and to its historic mandate.

CIVIL RIGHTS INVESTIGATION NOW!
