Now we know, and the administration is perfectly aware, that no such thing is produced. That nothing at all is produced. We wanted to do something a little different when we found out that Di and Kelly couldn t make it and since our June date was close to Father s day, we decided it would be good for women to step up to the mic and share their poetry about the men in their lives, said Staajabu, co-coordinator of the series. We expect to have a lot of fun. We always have a good audience and a good time at Poetry On a Saturday Afternoon at Carol s, she said.
Admission is free and children and elders are welcome.
There will also be an update on the case of Mumia Abu-Jamal plus refreshments and door prizes. As we reported in the last newsletter, the final court papers must be submitted by the prosecution no later than June 23, and we expect Federal Judge Yohn to soon thereafter fix a date for the hearing in Mumia's case. But if the powers that be do not feel sufficient pressure, and Judge Yohn feels safer following the road of least resistance and continuing the frame-up, then this hearing could actually spell DOOM for Mumia's legal case. Public pressure on Judge Yohn is still needed, aside from being present in Philadelphia. You can compose a letter using that form that will be printed out on your behalf, and included in a large pile of such letters that will be brought to the judge as the proceedings begin.
