Suggestions as to what YOU can do in your community:
Regarding the MOVE 9 prisoners: Urge journalists (radio, television & print) to seek interviews with the parole board and question them about denying a person parole because the person won't say that they're guilty. If the parole board starts getting questioned by the media about this issue they'll feel some heat.
Write letters to the editors of local newspapers and call in to as many radio talk shows as possible about the bombing and the ongoing imprisonment of The MOVE 9. This is something people can do all year long.
Screen video documentaries about MOVE and MOVE interviews so people get involved in action for the MOVE 9 prisoners and
