FATAL JUSTICE
The Victims of Capital Punishment in the United States
MOVING FORWARD
You've read their stories. Learned their names.
Acknowledging the humanity of death row inmates is the bare minimum.
STOP THE CRUELTY
We want a world in which no one must lose their life for justice's sake. Where death and justice are never viewed as synonyms. Where "criminal" is never the first descriptor used for a human being.
Here's how you can help us achieve that goal.
