From Progressive Omaha:
Please try to attend this important presentation on behalf of 43-years-incarcerated Edward Poindexter and Mondo we Langa (formerly David Rice.) We are continuing to educate the community to the travesty of justice involved with this case. In particular, the role played by the FBI’s infamous COINTELPRO (Counter Intelligence Program) that manipulated evidence and enabled numerous law enforcement agencies to frame and prosecute black activists in the 1960s and 1970s for crimes they didn’t commit.
Michael Richardson is a nationally-recognized research expert on the COINTELPRO and he is coming to Omaha:
The Malcolm X Center
3448 Evans Street, Omaha
July 21, 7 to 9 p.m.
We will open with a spoken-word performance by the great With Love, Felicia (Felicia Webster). We will pass the hat at the end of the program, and any donations will be given to the Nebraskans for Justice organization, the primary group that has been fighting for the release of Poindexter and we Langa.
Don’t forget these brothers. After 43 years in prison, they are still on the clock. Hope you can attend. Bring somebody with you.
Thank you,
Walter Brooks
