Jailhouse Lawyers Bewertungen

" . . . [E]xpert and well-reasoned commentary on the justice system . . . His writings are dangerous."Village Voice

"Brilliant in its specificity and imperative, [his] work is about why multitudes of people don't overcome. It rings so true because he has not overcome."LA Weekly

"The power of his voice is rooted in his defiance of those determined to silence him. Magically, Mumia's words are clarified, purified by the toxic strata of resistance they must penetrate to reach us."John E. Wideman
