Margaret Kimberley · Political Prisoners are the Best of Humanity: Free Them All

The Black Is Back Coalition’s upcoming national conference, August 15 and 16, will highlight the demand for freedom for all political prisoners, said Coalition chairman Omali Yeshitela. “People have been rotting in US prisons, tortured for 50 years and more,” said Yeshitela. “When we look at these human beings who went up against the greatest power on Earth to fight for our freedom, you can’t find better human beings than that, and we have to get them out of there.”
