Not too many people are still thinking about this, but I forgot to mention my column (which you can find on my timeline), “Alabama savagely gas-tortured a 7th man to death,” was also published in The Tuscaloosa News & The Gadsden Times on Friday. The next gassing-execution date hasn’t been set. Yet.

🗣️ The Montgomery Advertiser—Alabama’s oldest and best newspaper—doesn’t have a presence (yet) on #Bluesky which is too bad. ICYMI this is my most recent opinion-essay just published by The Advertiser concerning last week’s execution in Alabama. Thank you. www.montgomeryadvertiser.com/story/opinio...

Hello. “In the course of inhuman and barbaric events, good people have a duty to insist that other humans not engage in, and not perpetuate those events.” Alabama’s 7th—and America’s 8th—nitrogen-gassing-execution torture is set for next Thursday.

🗣️Hello. ICYMI: The 7th nitrogen-gassing-execution torture in Alabama is scheduled on October 23rd—in 10 days.

Over the weekend, in Alabama’s best newspaper, The Montgomery Advertiser—and, in The Gadsden Times and The Tuscaloosa News—I published “Alabama savagely gas-tortured a sixth man to death.”

🗣️ ICYMI, this piece was published online today in Alabama—in the Gadsden Times, the Tuscaloosa News and the Montgomery Advertiser—and it’ll appear in The Advertiser’s Sunday print edition. Find a 🆓link on my timeline, or google up a copy. Alabama’s 7th nitrogen-gassing-execution torture is on 10-23.

🗣️ Hello. In case you missed it, today I published “Alabama savagely gas-tortured a sixth man to death” in The Montgomery Advertiser, The Tuscaloosa News, and The Gadsden Times.

October 10, 2025, the global community marks the 23rd World Day Against the Death Penalty. Even if you believe in the #deathpenalty, while I’d urge you to reconsider, I hope you can at least agree gassing human beings to death is wrong. This weekend, I’ll publish another essay—in Alabama—about this.

🔊 Last Thursday, Alabama savagely gas-tortured a sixth man to death. On October 23rd, three weeks from today, Alabama has a seventh gassing. Weird how more attention isn’t being paid to that. In June, I called it, the gassings, “the descent of mankind.”

In case you missed my column“Alabama nitrogen-gassing unwanted by victim’s son,” it’s just been republished in Alabama’s best and most historic newspaper, The Montgomery Advertiser.

🚥 Give thanks🙏🏽every time @soundsofthecaribbean.com. Yes, Scientist & I are working very hard together to finish our book about Scientist’s legendary career. We hope to have some news we can announce about that massive endeavor sometime in 2026. And always, always listen to @soundsofthecaribbean.com!

Per my last post—and much of my recent timeline (please see that)—Alabama has another nitrogen-gassing execution Thursday, the state’s 6th. Now in case you missed it when originally published, here are an additional “5 reasons why Alabama shouldn't gas human beings to death.” 🆓link: archive.ph/yOPJs

Update on America and Alabama’s next nitrogen-gassing on 9-25: The son of the victim—11 when his mom was killed—published an oped yesterday saying he doesn’t want his mom’s killer executed. “My life has been very hard. I hope that Gov. Ivey will see her way to granting me this measure of comfort[.]”
September 13, 2025 at 12:04 AM
Today, I published “'Shoot me, hang me, just please don’t gas me” in Alabama’s best and also its most historic newspaper, The Montgomery Advertiser—and in its sister newspapers in Gadsden and in Tuscaloosa. It’ll be in print tomorrow. If you want a 🆓link: www.montgomeryadvertiser.com/story/opinio...

It’s really refreshing to see so many people on social media talking about how gassing humans to death is wrong, since Alabama’s next gassing is on September 25th. Carry on.

🗣️ ‘Nuff respect every time @soundsofthecaribbean.com! The interview of Sister Nancy was my 63rd interview of a #reggae legend/star for @reggae-vibes-nl.bsky.social! If you missed it, see the post below. I’m going to keep interviewing, but first have to finish my book with/about Scientist! #reggaesky

Interesting headline.

🚥ICYMI. Just trodding through. I’ll see you when I see you. Link: www.reggae-vibes.com/articles/202...

Perhaps more people should start thinking on it since—as of today, with the state’s recognition that the August 21 gassing won’t go forward as scheduled—that is “officially” when the country’s next nitrogen-gassing will be?

🚥 Some people were wondering what songs Sister Nancy sang yesterday when she headlined at #Reggae on the Mountain. #reggaepaparazzi has you covered. Blessed love to all the reggae fans.

🚥For the real #reggaesky fans, here’s a sliver of my exclusive Sister Nancy media/content from today at Reggae on the Mountain. Look for the rest of it to be published @reggae-vibes-nl.bsky.social in the Netherlands in a few weeks. One love. ❤️ 💛 💚
