Jalil Muntaqim is a Black Panther incarcerated for 44 years as part of the covert FBI program known as Cointelpro. This illegal pogram was exposed by a 1971 raid on an FBI office in Media, PA and the Church Commission hearings in the US Senate in 1975. Jalil's 9th parole hearing will take place in mid June. The parole board focuses primarily on the nature of the "crime" instead of the ability of the prisoner to reintegrate into society. Pls join us to support Jalil's request for parole.
