Dr. Al-Fatah Stewart has been held in the Rikers Island correctional facility in New York City for the last 43 months without trial. Because his legal counsel has been absent from his court appearances, Stewart has been held without the right to a speedy trial that the constitution guarantees. He recorded this message from Rikers Island in October 2022.

Anyone wishing to support him should email aboutthepeople1312@gmail.com.
