Mumia: Long Distance Revolutionary (2012)
Superb film about Mumia Abu-Jamal - the person, NOT the case.
"Mumia: Long Distance Revolutionary" is an excellent depiction of Mumia Abu-Jamal as the brave activist, eloquent journalist and admirable human being he truly is. Unlike previous documentaries about Mumia Abu-Jamal, which focus primarily on his case, Stephen Vittoria's film focuses on the life and work of Abu-Jamal himself -- and in so doing, shows the real motive of those who have tried to silence him forever. Mumia Abu-Jamal is one of the finest minds of my generation -- a brilliant writer, commentator and media critic who was targeted for a hit by the Philadelphia police for reporting on police brutality, railroaded to a murder conviction for surviving the cops' attempt to kill him, and condemned to die in prison for his dissident politics. I urge all people who believe in the American promises of freedom of speech, freedom of expression and freedom of association to watch "Long Distance Revolutionary." This great film deserves the widest possible audience – and Mumia Abu-Jamal deserves to be free NOW!
