"Revolutionary love, revolutionary memory and revolutionary analysis are at work in every page written by Mumia AbuJamal ? His writings are a wakeup call. He is a voice from our prophetic tradition, speaking to us here, now, lovingly, urgently. Black man, oldschool jazz man, freedom fighter, revolutionaryhis presence, his voice, his words are the writing on the wall."Cornel West, from the forewordFrom the first slave writings to contemporary hip hop, the canon of African American literature offers a powerful counternarrative to dominant notions of American culture, history and politics. Resonant with voices of prophecy and resistance, the African American literary tradition runs deep with emancipatory currents that have had an indelible impact on the United States and the world. Mumia AbuJamal has been one of our most important contributors to this canon for decades, writing from the confines of the U.S. prison system to give voice to those most silenced by chronic racism, impoverishment and injustice.Writing on the Wall is a selection of more than 100 previously unpublished essays that deliver Mumia AbuJamal's essential perspectives on community, politics, power, and the possibilities of social change in the United States. From Rosa Parks to Edward Snowden, from the Trail of Tears to Ferguson, Missouri, AbuJamal addresses a sweeping range of contemporary and historical issues. Written mostly during his years of solitary confinement on Death Row, these essays are a testament to AbuJamal's often prescient insight, and his revolutionary perspective brims with hope, encouragement and profound faith in the possibility of redemption."Greatness meets us in this book, and not just in Mumia's personal courage and character. It's in the writing. This is art with political power, challenging institutional injustice in the U.S. while catalyzing our understanding, memory and solidarities for liberation and love. Writing on the Wall can set the nation aflameyes, for creating new possible worlds."Mark Lewis Taylor, Professor of Theology and Culture, Princeton Theological SeminaryMumia AbuJamal is an awardwinning journalist and author of two bestselling books, Live From Death Row and Death Blossoms.Johanna Fernndez is a Fulbright Scholar and Professor of History at Baruch College in New York City.Cornel West is a scholar, philosopher, activist and author of over a dozen books including his bestseller, Race Matters.
