wanting someone dead should never come with the right to kill them. it doesn’t matter if we think they deserve it—we shouldn’t get to decide who lives or dies, and the death penalty should not exist.

Florida carried out 19 executions this year — about 40% of the U.S. total. Many faced mental illness, poor legal defense, or histories of abuse. With the governor holding sole authority over warrants, advocates warn the system is moving at a dangerous pace.

Just finished this episode. I remember seeing Jeff interviewed after the first nitrogen hypoxia execution a year or so ago. It was horrifying to hear his description of that event again. Jeff should be honored for his work. I can't imagine how hard it must be. #abolishthedeathpenalty

We have one day to save Tremane Wood's life and stop the State of Oklahoma from killing a man who did not kill anyone during the crime he was sentenced to die for. A letter from the Faith Leaders of Color Coalition Director details how we can help.

Why is this ok? Murdering is not ok! US military strikes another boat in the Caribbean, killing 3. If they are bringing drugs we arrest and we go through the legal
System. WTF said it’s ok for America to murder people just because they can? This is not right.

We couldn’t do this advocacy without the work of the Death Penalty Information Center, so consider signing up for their email alerts. Amnesty International and state organizations such as Alternative to the Death Penalty are also worth the follow.
