“Throughout history, the U.S. has used its prison system to suppress any organized efforts to challenge its legitimacy.” George Jackson (Soledad Brother) The enemy kept our brother from us and behind bars for (5) years. When Brother Jamil reached Atlanta’s west end, the enemies resurfaced again. Once again, fabricated, intense federal and state investigations became a part of his life. He was well aware of what one had to endure when he or she is chosen by our people as a Black leader in America. The FBI actively investigated Brother Jamil from 1972 to 1996, and the U.S. attorney’s office never filed any charges for lack of evidence.
The Case
At approximately 10 pm on March 16, 2000, two Fulton County sheriff deputies went to Jamil’s grocery store with a warrant to arrest him.

Did these Black sheriffs actually know just how much Brother Jamil had done to revitalize the African spirits of Black families in Atlanta as well other Black communities around the country? The police said that as the sheriffs attempted to take brother Jamil into custody by knocking on the front door, a black Mercedes pulled up in front of the store, and the lone driver was ordered to exit the vehicle. The man got out, and one of the sheriffs said, “Show your hands,” and then they said the driver said, “Okay” and began firing a .223-caliber assault rifle that was (supposedly) concealed under his coat.
