Political Prisoner Radio - Free Hugo Pinell w/ Sis. Kiilu Nyasha

Former Black Panther and journalist Sister Kiilu Nyasha joins the program to discuss the case of Hugo L. A. Pinell, nicknamed "Yogi Bear". Mr. Pinell was coecred into a plea bargain for a crime he maintains he did not commit. "In 1964, a white woman accused me of rape, assault and kidnap. I was 19 years old. I turned myself into the authorities to clarify the charges against me which I knew to be falsified. The deputies beat me several times because the alleged victim was white, and the Public Defender and the Judge influenced my mother into believing that I would be sentenced to death unless I pled guilty. At their insistence and despite my innocence, I pled guilty to the charge of rape, with the understanding that I would be eligible for parole after 6 months. When I arrived at the California Department of Corrections, I was informed that I had been sentenced to three years to life." - Hugo L. A. Pinell Mr. Pinell has been incarcerated on the prison plantation for nearly half a century and the majority of that time has been in solitary confinement.

 I will ask again, should the Black community fight back against police brutality by boycotting Christmas if those who want our votes do not put Federal legislation addressing the issue on the table?
