Scope & content

This collection contains materials related to mass efforts to free Mumia Abu-Jamal from incarceration, including posters, brochures, postcards, buttons, reports, and some letters. Items in the collection were created beginning in the late 1990s by various organizations, artists and activists, typically as part of an event such as a fundraiser, concert, protest or art opening.
