As Mumia was facing an execution , August 17, 1995, I threw myself into the work with a major initiative of getting the Congressional Black Caucus to call for a stay of his execution. Eventually replaced Safiya as she went on to build Jericho. Coordinated the largest event the FMAJ organized to that point in 2000 event at AME Zion Church. NYC became the center of work, supporting ICFFMAJ in Philly. Eventually worked with MOVE on a major child custody case of theirs, with my testifying as a psychologist for MOVE. Became closer with MOVE and later with Sundiata Sadiq who became co-chair with me. The range of the FMAJC ‘s work became huge as Sadiq introduced me into extensive work in NY State prisons: Green Haven, Sing Sing, Sullivan, etc. It was no longer just Mumia work.

From Suzanne: "Mumia work in the early 90’s through Safiya Bukhari. As Mumia was facing an execution , August 17, 1995, I threw myself into the work with a major initiative of getting the Congressional Black Caucus to call for a stay of his execution. Eventually replaced Safiya as she went on to build Jericho. Coordinated the largest event the FMAJ organized to that point in 2000 event at AME Zion Church. NYC became the center of work, supporting ICFFMAJ in Philly. Eventually worked with MOVE on a major child custody case of theirs, with my testifying as a psychologist for MOVE. Became closer with MOVE and later with Sundiata Sadiq who became co-chair with me. The range of the FMAJC ‘s work became huge as Sadiq introduced me into extensive work in NY State prisons: Green Haven, Sing Sing, Sullivan, etc. It was no longer just Mumia work. I felt blessed working with Safiya, Pam, MOVE, and later Sundiata Sadiq. Became a strong advocate for MOVE’s leadership in the face of its many detractors."

Political Work: Vietnam and Other Topics Subject The topic of the resource Ross, Suzanne Description An account of the resource In this recording, part of a larger video memoir project, lifetime activist and educator Suzanne Ross speaks more her involvement in organizing against the U.S. war in Vietnam and other topics related to international solidarity. From Suzanne: "Chronology of my Vietnam work, starting in 1965, when the US aggression was very intense, through 1986, after the Vietnamese victory in 1975, when I went to Vietnam hosted by the Vietnam Friendship with the Peoples of the World Committee for a two week visit with Tony Russo, who had released the Pentagon Papers with Daniel Ellsberg in the 70’s. I learned so much from the Vietnamese, about strategy, about the power of the people’s struggle, convinced that they were going to win, when we in the US were worried that they were losing. And perhaps most importantly about international solidarity. The kind of solidarity Cuba offered to Vietnam (and Congo, Bolivia, and Angola) was very inspiring. What Vietnam meant to activists in this country, setting an example of revolutionary morality when there was none of that in this country. The history of internationalism had some of its roots decades back in the International Bandung Conference for African and Asian nations. Though I knew about the Conference back when it occurred I came back to it with the publication of Mumia’s and Stephen Vittoria’s trilogy Murder Incorporated, a book about anti-imperialism just written in this last decade."

Political Work: CISPES and El Salvador Subject The topic of the resource Ross, Suzanne Description An account of the resource In this recording, part of a larger video memoir project, lifetime activist and educator Suzanne Ross speaks more her involvement in the Committee in Solidarity with the People of El Salvador during the 1980s. From Suzanne: "I worked in CISPES 1981–1985 and played different leadership roles in that period. The U.S. was trying to stop the revolutionary movement and progressive forces from overthrowing the control the right-wing forces had over the government. The Farabundo Marti National Liberation forces (FMLN) a coalition of five organizations, led this struggle and were responding to the right wing’s assassination of Archbishop Romero, the rape and murder of five progressive US nuns, and the killings of hundreds of young revolutionaries. The organization led demonstrations in New York, particularly at the Salvadoran Consulate in Manhattan, in Washington, with a huge demonstration on March 27, 1982, and offered support to the Salvadoran struggle however it could. At one point, when the US decided to train Savaldoran troops in the US, we promptly organized a bus filled it with our members and allies and drove down to Fort Bragg, the site of the training, and went on the site chanting against this escalation of the US intervention. From the beginning of my work with CISPES in 1981 it was exciting to have huge numbers of young people involved, willing to do things militantly and on the spur of the moment. Our street presence was impressive. I was concerned about the all-white composition of the organization and the Salvadoran leadership’s lack of understanding of the role of the Black movement and other movements of color in political work and movements in the US. This meant focusing primarily on the white peace movement and, I felt, particularly neglecting the movements of people of color. This was the picture in NYC and to a large extent the national picture as well. My relationship to CISPES ended in bitter conflict with my leaving the organization over this last issue. This conflict became most dramatic and heated over the Jesse Jackson presidential campaign."
