Mumia Abu-Jamal.

White taxpayers have been housing and feeding this violent, insane-looking coon for over 35 years.

Just make a Mississippi wind chime out of him and be done with it.

CBS Local:

Former death row inmate Mumia Abu-Jamal is due in court Monday morning. He’s asking a judge to set aside previous convictions so he can go through the appeals process again.

Abu-Jamal is serving a life sentence for the 1981 murder of Philadelphia police officer Daniel Faulkner.

His lawyers say Abu-Jamal’s rights were violated during appeals, citing the bias of then-state Supreme Court Justice Ron Castille, who previously served as Philadelphia’s district attorney.

Daniel Faulkner.

Former death row inmate Mumia Abu-Jamal has been hospitalized, but his lawyer says prison officials won’t tell him why.

Attorney Bret Grote said Monday that his client is in the critical care unit of a Pennsylvania hospital.

Abu-Jamal is a former Black Panther serving life in prison for the 1981 murder of white Philadelphia police Officer Daniel Faulkner. His conviction was upheld through years of appeals, but he has gained international support for his claim that he’s the victim of a racist justice system.

The widow of a slain Philadelphia Police officer shared her thoughts on a Vermont college’s decision to select the man convicted of killing her husband as their commencement speaker.

“The only thing I would want to hear from Mumia Abu-Jamal is him admitting and confessing to my husband’s murder,” said Maureen Faulkner. “Shame on them. They could have another commencement speaker that would give these students wisdom before they start out in life.”

Students in the fall 2014 graduating class of Goddard College selected Mumia Abu-Jamal, 60, as their commencement speaker. Abu-Jamal is serving a life sentence at the Mahanoy State Correctional Institution in Frackville, Pa. for the 1981 murder of 25-year-old Philadelphia Police Officer Daniel Faulkner.

“Thirty-two years later the Faulkner family, my family and I, have to endure the pain of him being able to speak in public and having rights,” Faulkner’s widow Maureen told NBC10. “Having a murderer, a radical, and someone who hates America to speak with them I think is so wrong.”

Goddard school officials said Abu-Jamal’s remarks were prerecorded and the short video will roll during a ceremony Sunday. Abu-Jamal is a 1996 graduate of Goddard and also hosts a radio show that airs on WGDR-WGDH Goddard Community radio every Sunday.

“Choosing Mumia as their commencement speaker, to me, shows how this newest group of Goddard graduates expresses their freedom to engage and think radically and critically in a world that often sets up barriers to do just that,” Goddard College Interim President Robert Kenny said in a news release Monday.

Since his conviction, Abu-Jamal has gained supporters from around the world, including several celebrities, who claim he was innocent of the crime and the victim of a racist legal system.

“This man has been in prison for 33 years,” said Mark Taylor, a professor and founder of Educators for Mumia Abu-Jamal. “The case against him has not been established and this is a man whose voice has much to give. In many ways he is our Nelson Mandela. Mumia, to be shut down by the police now, is facing a situation of great injustice and the students at Goddard College have displayed great wisdom in inviting him to give their commencement address this Sunday.”

Taylor also told NBC10 Abu-Jamal has released other pre-recorded speeches and books which have been used in college classrooms.
