In this segment of By Any Means Necessary, hosts Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by Jitu Sadiki and Leon Jordan of the Coalition to Free Ruchell “Cinque” Magee, to discuss the ongoing campaign to secure the release of the “longest-held political prisoner in the US,” the role of racism in the legal frame-ups which first saw him incarcerated at age 16 for having a relationship with a white girl, and his connection to the failed attempt to liberate George Jackson from the Marin County Civic Center in 1970.
