Amnesty International has updated its petition on this matter, and we are told it sends an email directly into the White House as people sign it. This is NOT a DPA action, but we urge you to click here to use this new avenue on this campaign.
As Martin Luther King Day approaches, we note that the first three executions of the year are of Black Men. It's time to take action to counter this racist death penalty system:
Click here to sign and share petitions for Marion Bowman in South Carolina, Steven Nelson in Texas, and Demetrius Frazier in Alabama. Click each man's name to read more about their cases and join the call to halt their executions.
Steven Nelson did not kill anyone. This is another Law of Parties case where the actual killer is free, but the co-defendant who did not participate in the murder faces execution.
A conversation about the next scheduled Texas execution with Steven Nelson's spiritual advisor, Rev. Dr. Jeff Hood, and Steven's partner and campaign manager, Noa Dubois. This will not be on zoom. Watch LIVE on the Death Penalty Action X, You Tube or Facebook platforms starting at 1pm CT, today, January 15.
