Dead Prez's M1 on Mumia Abu Jamal and Luqman Abdullah on Solitary Confinement in PA Prisons: Conversations

Welcome to On the Block, a radio show that looks critically at our criminal justice system.



On today’s show, we will listen to special east coast edition of Block Report Radio in which JR Valrey interviews M-1 of the Hip Hop group Dead Prez on the significance of the movement to free Mumia Abu Jamal.

Then, we will hear from Luqman Abdullah on his report at a special hearing on solitary confinement in the Pennsylvania Prison System that was convened by state representative Ron Waters.

All of that coming up On the Block on WPEB 88.1 FM, Philadelphia.

Special Thanks.
