Paris suburb names street for Mumia Abu-Jamal
http://www.macon.com/mld/inquirer/news/local/14587429.htm?source=rss&channel=inquirer_local

Hundreds of supporters of Abu-Jamal attended a ceremony on April 29 to dedicate the Rue Mumia-Abu Jamal in the city of St.-Denis.

"In France, they see him as a towering figure," said Suzanne Ross, co-chair of the Free Mumia Coalition of New York City, who was part of the ceremony.

Ross said the street is in the town's Human Rights district, which includes Nelson Mandela Stadium.

2. ...trying hard not to be anti-France.. but that's just sorry. The 'free
Mumia' crowd are rather obnoxious, anyway.
