"Power concedes nothing without a demand, it never

"Power concedes nothing without a demand, it never has and it never will” Frederick Douglass.

We were all shocked by the Santa Clara DA Jeff Rosen's position that he would not acknowledge his office's racial injustice and the pattern of prosecutorial misconduct & release Mr. Walker. Shaka is now faced with additional years in prison. He is 62 and has suffered stroke symptoms and two heart attacks in the last year. While it was a blow, we are regrouping and re-strategize with Shaka and his family: and we will continue to call on all of you to stand with us - and with Shaka.

Put this date on your calendar. April 20th 8:30 am.

We will be back in court. And thanks to all of you who showed early this month inside and outside the Santa Clara Court House in San Jose to stand with Shaka. You are the power of the people. Thank you for demanding justice for Marvin "Shaka" Walker. A teenager, convicted by an all white jury and sent to death row in 1979, 43 years ago.

The prison industrial complex is a machine designed to over incarcerate. The laws that have developed, the very laws that promise justice, often are written to all but extinguish the possiblity freedom. It is unbelievably hard to get folks out, even after decades.

Here are some things you can do to support him:

His next hearing is April 20 at 9 am in Dept 39 (on the sixth floor) of the Santa Clara County Courthouse at 190 West Hedding St in San Jose. Please join us!

Order postcards here. Tell Santa Clara County District Attorney Jeff Rosen that the public wants a timely resolution on this case that has already dragged out for so long. Send a letter to:

Jeff Rosen
Santa Clara County District Attorney
40 West Hedding St,
San Jose, CA 95110

Here at Prison Radio we know that bringing the voi

Here at Prison Radio we know that bringing the voices of those inside to the airwaves is a sure fire way to honor their humanity. It is a key way to maximize their agency. It is an avenue for their voices to lead the movement. So they can define their own work and to tell the truth of this monstrous misuse of public funds. Without this window, the conditions, experiences, and the beautiful resilience would be kept hidden, and kept secret. We can only build a world without prisons if we let incarcerated people lead the public discourse.

Yes, this is always a call to alms. We need some cash to literally keep the lights on. This work is complicated and expensive. We don’t have foundation funding. We need your help now more than ever. Please dig into your pockets and share with us what you can.

URGENT MESSAGE: Krystal Denise Clark, an inmate at

URGENT MESSAGE: Krystal Denise Clark, an inmate at WHV, the valley of death, is calling for attention to the mistreatment of inmates. Last week, Angela McConnell, a jlwop inmate with hopes of release, committed suicide after telling guards and inmates that she would hang herself, but nothing was done. Angela was a peaceful, caring woman who was helpful and kind to others. She was most often smiling, with beautiful long hair and a friendly demeanor. She had been in WHV for a long time, considering her young age. She was housed in segregation when she took her life. This tragedy highlights the urgent need for an investigation into the conditions at WHV. We must hold those in power accountable for their negligence. Our hearts go out to Angela's family. #InvestigateWHV

Pack the Courtroom! Thursday 8:30 am in San Jose Marvin "Shaka" Walker is Back in Court

Mumia Abu-Jamal has been waiting for 41 years for

Mumia Abu-Jamal has been waiting for 41 years for justice, and now is the time for a new trial. Shocking new evidence suggests that there was bribery, perjury, and jury tampering with the inclusion of white jurors in his trial. This evidence was recently discovered in Storage Closet No. 17 in the basement of the DA's office. Mumia's lawyers have submitted a supplemental petition to the court, exposing the constitutional violations in the jury selection process and the suppression of evidence that has been buried for four decades.

Presiding Criminal Division Judge Lucretia Clemons of the Philadelphia Common Pleas court has the power to overturn Mumia's conviction and grant him a new trial. But the clock is ticking, and time is running out. Judge Clemons needs to act now and consider the overwhelming evidence of prosecutorial misconduct in this case.

We cannot sit by and let justice be denied any longer. Mumia deserves a fair trial, and this is the time to make it happen. We need to put pressure on Judge Clemons to take action and grant Mumia a new trial. Share this urgent message and demand justice for Mumia Abu-Jamal. visit http://lovenotphear.com for more information.
