Mondo we Langa’s Birthday

On the 21st of May it will be Mondo we Langa’s birthday. He will be turning 65 and has been in prison since 1972.

Sending a card is a way to let prisoners know that they haven’t been forgotten about. A card can be sent to the states for £1.28 and takes about 5 days. Remember to leave enough time for the post to get through the prison. If you can’t afford to send a card, then we’ll be happy to forward one for you.

 

 

MONDO WE LANGA (D. RICE)

P.O. Box 2500
Lincoln, NE 68542-2500

Ed Poindexter and Mondo we Langa (formerly David Rice), have been incarcerated on life sentences for the 1971 bombing death of an Omaha policeman. Both have insisted they never manufactured a bomb, and never instructed a 16-year-old to make a 911 call to lure police to a trap which would kill one policeman and badly injure
another. So much evidence has come to light since their convictions to corroborate their story that Amnesty International and the Lincoln NAAC have called for their release, or for a new trial.
Mondo We Langa was a known member of the NCCF. (National Committe to Combat Fascism) This group consisted of Black Panther members that were working to protect the black community from police brutality. David Rice was Minister of Information in the NCCF. Rice’s political actions were a large part of why he was convicted.
