Mumia: Long Distance Revolutionary (2012)
Mumia as you might not know him.
Although i thought I knew a lot about the case of Mumia Abu-jamal, i knew that he was innocent. I knew that he was framed by the DA, mayor and the Philadelphia police department. I knew that his trial was a travesty with the judge a member of the FOP and quoted having made racist statements about Mumia. I knew that witnesses had been threatened and coerced. Like i said, I knew a lot. I knew he was innocent and that someone else even confessed to the crime. I learned a great deal about the man Mumia and not just the political figure. Mumia's brilliance and insight has flowered behind prison walls and through tremendous disadvantage. I thank the director, Stephen Vittoria for his sensitive work in taking on this controversial story. I have seen it in theaters and own the DVD.
