Happy Birthday, Jericho Movement!
Kyle Fraser, Black Agenda Radio producer
13 Mar 2018

The organization created by and for US political prisoners -- most of them Black Panthers, some incarcerated for nearly 50 years -- marks its 20th anniversary, March 24. The Jericho Movement has taken the struggle to the United Nations Human Rights Commission. “We’re trying to organize on an international level,” said co-chair Jihad Abdulmumit, “so that the world can see what’s going on with our freedom fighters.”
