Nuh Washington – Call Me Nuh & Last Statement

Albert 'Nuh' Washington passed away April 28, 2000, at the Regional Medical Unit at
Coxsackie Correctional Facility.

Nuh (the Arabic form of Noah) was a committed member of the Black Panther Party and
was arrested on August 28, 1971 in San Francisco.

Call Me Nuh is based on an interview done with Nuh Washington in 1988 by Fiona
Boneham and Paper Tiger TV and produced and edited by Lisa Rudman and Claude Marks
in March, 2000. This was originally shown in Oakland, CA at a tribute to him on
March 21, 2000, shortly before his passing. Nuh’s “last statement” was recorded for
that same event. Each video runs 10 minutes.


Jail Muntaqim – Voice of Liberation

This 20-minute documentary was edited & produced in November 2002 by Eve Goldberg
and Claude Marks, based on an interview done in August 2000 by John O'Reilly and
Nina Dibner.

Jalil Abdul Muntaqim (formerly Anthony Bottom) was 19 years old when he was arrested
at the same time as Nuh Washington. He is a former member of the Black Panther Party
and is one of the longest held political prisoners in the world. This documentary is
a unique opportunity to visit and hear Jalil's story.


David Gilbert – A Lifetime of Struggle

This 30-minute video was edited in March 2002 by Claude Marks and Lisa Rudman, and
is based on an interview done in July of 1998 at Great Meadows Prison, Comstock, New
York by Sam Green and Bill Siegel.

This is a rare opportunity to go behind prison walls for a discussion with David
Gilbert, a lifelong anti-imperialist activist and former member of the Weather
Underground Organization. David is now serving a life sentence in prison for
activities in support of the Black Liberation Movement. He explains why he joined
the movement, what led him to go underground, and frankly discusses the strengths
and errors of the movement and the WUO.
