As-Salaam Alaikum, Hotep, Ona Move and Peace to all of my beloved comrades, supporters, friends and family. I want to take this time to thank you for attending the Class-War Prisoners' 22nd Annual Holiday Appeal sponsored by the Partisan Defense Committee.

Comrades, the time has come for us as a people to unify and turn up the heat against the outrageous fabricated web of lies that plague Amerikkka's foremost political prisoner, Mumia Abu-Jamal. We must break the chains and ultimately free him from this obviously racist political frame-up.

Many of us have come from different work-related unions, labor coalitions and all walks of life to unite with this common cause. We ask ourselves time and time again how and why does this mendacious legal system continue to cover up and support these trigger-happy, gun-toting, racist, rogue police officers? They continue to place urban and suburban communities under siege where people of color and immigrants reside. Each and every hour of the day, our people are targeted and killed without just cause.

This system has a deliberate strategy of destroying families' stability. Stay mindful that not one officer on the local, state or federal level has done one day in prison for their illegal activities. We must place an end to these reckless atrocities at the hands of state and federally-funded law enforcement officers in their abuse of authority!

Because of this, we must galvanize to form a national and international labor union force/ work strike. Public transit systems nationwide should halt all service, hospital workers should conduct sit-ins and college students all over the country should organize massive walkouts to demand Mumia's freedom.

My dear father Mumia, known to the world as the voice of the voiceless, is an innocent man who was politically framed and railroaded by corrupt officials within the seedy city of Brotherly Love. Mumia needs our help now more than ever to break the chains of the racist, vindictive FOP (Fraternal Order of Police) and the biased judges within the capitalist courts.

The oppression within this blood-thirsty capitalist country derives from racism and has political corruption at its core. So many faceless prospects young and old are being railroaded at an alarming rate. Everyday people struggling to make ends meet on a daily basis from all walks of life regardless of education have seen this racism through rampant racist cops with blind filibustering politicians who sugarcoat, downplay and cover up these draconian demonic acts as being justified.

The masses must break the chains off their minds that have them believing we have a fair and just system. We must be free of the psychological illusions that biased, mendacious officials at the federal and state level allow the masses to publicly reject the status quo operandi instead of being duped that they are defenseless against the courts.

This insidious legal system will continue to murder our people for sport before the young people grow up and will continue to warehouse the elder rebellious ones within these concentration camps until we stop looking the other way neglecting our duties and responsibilities in our community. We must come together to save the life of an innocent man.

Comrades, I know all too well what it is to be a railroaded product of the system inside these federal concentration camps. Even while being held behind enemy lines for the last 11 years, I continue to remain focused and I know I will prevail. I will continue to expose the bigotry these racist prison guards and staff continue to express towards me.

They continuously attempt to condemn me to a higher level security facility. I've informed the PDC, who have consistently followed up with my attorney, Mr. Jonathan Piper, on the various vile acts these people constantly try against me.

The PDC and Mr. Piper successfully forced the warden to admit in writing that my racist case manager at the time, Walter Whalen, knowingly displayed a poster of my dear father on his office wall that he downloaded off a FOP website, stating underneath the picture (to paraphrase): "He convinced the world he is an innocent man. He is a cold-blooded killer of Police Officer Daniel Faulkner." In turn, this incident suddenly inflated my security level points knowingly and deliberately without just cause.

As you are reading this statement, I am still being harassed in prison for my political beliefs and unbreakable support for my innocent father. This excessive harassment does not in any way weaken me nor deter me from taking a stand for what is right and what is just.

Many inmates incarcerated with me have warned me in their hateful manner to "not make waves. Just go along with what they say or do and everything will be OK." My response is clear and will not falter: I refuse to sit by like a sheep going to the slaughter and accept this racially and politically motivated abuse as normal.

Because I took a stand to break a link in the chain and have held my ground on a consistent basis throughout this process, I was victorious in winning my transfer and was immediately sent to a lower level facility. Inevitably, the same format will apply to my dear father's situation and he will be vindicated of all charges.

Together we stand as one union. Do you feel that we should stand aside and allow this innocent man to be railroaded to an unjust death? The answer is NO. We will continue to be vigilant in our fight against this vile corruption that has allowed many to climb the ladder with Mumia's blood on their hands.
It's obvious that my dearly beloved father is innocent. The corrupt courts already know that, but they refuse to release the voice of the voiceless.

Well, clearly it has been proven that false propaganda continues to confuse and dupe the masses through fabricated, biased false media, a washed-up radio shock jock who happens to be an ex-cop and the obsessively vindictive FOP lynch mobs cowardly pushing a confused, ignorant widow to spearhead their bogus campaign of promoting lies through a book. This is designed to manipulate the public in their mad rush to murder a man who is accused of a crime he did not commit.

Mumia Abu-Jamal's innocence is backed by massive amounts of evidence. He has maintained his innocence for over 25 years. His fight will not stop until he is free!

Comrades, our time is NOW! We must seize the time and outdo our past by breaking the chains together! This is what those who came before us would want us to do.

Free Mumia now! We will prevail in triumph! Free all political prisoners of war now!

This statement will be read at the Partisan Defense Committee's 22nd Annual Holiday Appeal on Dec. 16, 2007.
