MUMIA: A series of major victories in the past two months in Mumia’s case call for review, analysis, and follow up strategy. Mumia is now getting the Hep C meds, and his case has been reopened in the PA courts for possible voiding of the entire PA Supreme Court rejection of Mumia’s appeal. If won, a new trial or release would be legally possible.  In the meantime, thousands of PA ­prisoners can now use Mumia’s treatment as basis for ­demanding it for themselves, and PA has ruled that all
MEDI­CAID recipients are ­entitled to the Hep C cure.

MOVE: A historic three-day conference on the MOVE Organization took place in Philadelphia from May 5 through May 7 on the history, ideology, and beliefs of MOVE. MOVE 9 members called in from the PA dungeons where they are being held, more than a dozen members and supporters spoke on their experiences with MOVE, and many lessons were shared that have major ­implications for movement building strategies.
