[Imc] Fwd: MUMIA COURT APPEARANCE CONFIRMED!

[Robert Dunn]

Folks, it appears that Mumia is going to get his day in court. However it is 
unfortunate that Leonard Peltier is still being denied justice.

Can the IMC do a feature on the Mumia case and on political prisoners for 
the WEFT radio show. I would be willing to do something on Leonard Peltier.
In solidarity,
Robert
