Writing on the Wall

By Mumia Abu-Jamal

Edited by Johanna Fernandez, Foreword by Cornel West

Mumia Abu-Jamal’s latest book compiles, for the first time, more than 100 of his previously unpublished essays spanning the 30 plus years of his incarceration.From his first Christmas in prison to his Goddard commencement speech that sparked the Pennsylvania law SB508, or ‘Silencing Act’—now, because of a lawsuit led by Prison Radio, declared an unconstitutional restriction on freedom of speech—Mumia’s words educate, move, and inspire all who encounter them, forever reminding us that creating a just world is possible if only we, like Mumia, have the courage to fight for it.
