How do you say 'thank you' to thousands, perhaps tens of thousands of people, who you don't know?

How do you communicate such thanks to these many people, some, indeed most, who you have never seen?

There comes a time - like this one, where one has to admit - I don't know how to do so; I just hope this will do for some.

From my clan of blood and spirit, I send my thanks far and wide - on the winds, like a winged prayer of Love.

Thanks to you, the forces of resistance are no longer silent; we are a leading chorus in the Song of Life. Your call echoes across continents,

The call 'Sabo must go' resonates like summer thunder from coast to coast.

Thanks to you, radicals, lawyers, academics, everyday folks, we are growing. who knew that such a deep and wide anti-death penalty presence lay silent?

Groups like the Bruderhof (who I playfully call 'The Blue People') pepper our movement with their peaceful presence; reserved

yet committed foes of the Death Lust that stalks America

My thanks to you all we are growing! We shall win!

Ona Move! Long Live John Africa!

Mumia Abu Jamal - July 29, 1995
