Grant Mumia a New Trial!!!
For more than 25 years, Pennsylvania journalist Mumia Abu-Jamal has been on death row for the murder of Philadelphia police officer Daniel Faulkner.
Abu-Jamal and his supporters say he is innocent; he's gone through a long series of appeals to get the conviction overturned. Yesterday, the U.S. Supreme Court said it would not grant him a new trial.
Farai Chideya speaks with Jeff Mackler, director of the Mobilization to Free Mumia Abu-Jamal campaign.
To hear the interview on NPR that I can't listen to because the sound on my lap top isn't working:
