The case of the so called Angola 3 hits Washington DC tomorrow, as three US lawmakers lend their support to the trio's two remaining members still held in solitary confinement.

Congressmembers John Conyers, Bobby Scott and Cedric Richmond are holding a briefing on solitary confinement, followed by a screening of the documentary, In the Land of the Free, about the Angola 3.  Advocates are increasing awareness in anticipation of what might be Albert Woodfox’s last appeal later this year.  FSRN'S Steven Mather reports from London, where Robert King, the only freed member of the Angola 3, recently traveled to promote the screening of the documentary in the UK.
