Prison Radio

Dear Friend,

In his piece on the release of Julian Assange, Mumia exposes the dark underbelly of imperial war and state violence. He reminds us that truth-tellers like Assange are labeled enemies of the state not because they committed crimes, but because they revealed them. Mumia himself is a living testament to this: a journalist, author, and political prisoner who has endured decades behind bars.

Mumia’s voice is powerful, but without platforms like Prison Radio, his message might never reach beyond prison walls. For over 30 years, Prison Radio has recorded, produced, and distributed the voices of incarcerated individuals—voices that have been intentionally silenced by a system built to dehumanize and oppress. We exist to amplify these voices and bring their stories into the public consciousness, challenging unjust systems that rely on secrecy and silence to perpetuate harm.

Mumia’s words, captured in the heart of the prison industrial complex, resonate far beyond those walls. His commentary on Assange is just one of many examples of how political prisoners like him bring critical perspectives on state violence, mass incarceration, and global injustice. But to continue sharing these stories, we need your support.

This is where you come in:
