Political Prisoners in the U.S. - "Let My People Go"

Thank you for joining this segment of The Struggle Continues.  This week we talk with our first time guest, Orie Lumumba, about Political Prisoners.  Yes, we expose yet another dirty little secret of the U.S.!

Lumumba has worked extensively with many of our people whose terms of incarceration and protracted detainments are, however neatly and mysteriously packaged and presented to the public, politically motivated!  Come learn with us as we define the classification of prisoners, e.g. social, political, death-row etc.  Join our exploration and analysis of, what this program coins as, the "Recidivism Racketeer:" who gets released; why are they released; how long before their expected reincarceration; and, the silver bullet, how does this impact and effect others who should be released.

Let's support and join forces with Lumumba as he instructs us on how we can help to hasten the release of all Political Prisoners and enusre that their basic human needs are met in the interim.
