What do think of New Jersey Gov. Christine Whitmans threats to revoke the permit for the concert?
We haven’t necessarily reached a police state in this country, although some communities certainly feel that way. What the police have been able to achieve is a kind of police sovereignty, and that’s what they’ve been exercising in their attempts to get this concert shut down. Governor Whitman’s threats to revoke their permit to play at the Meadowlands are a reflection of the all-powerful police machinery that wields considerable political influence in this country. What should people do about these threats? They should joyfully attend the concert. They should flood the arena and the area around it and send a strong message to the police and governor that they won’t be intimidated. What advice would you give to activists who want to see Mumia freed? Well, I would first encourage them to follow the support network for Mumia that’s developing and to demonstrate their support through events that are shaping up like the [Millions for Mumia] demonstration happening in Philadelphia on April
