Annual meeting

Dear Friends,

This is a reminder that we will hold the Annual Meeting of the Tallahassee Citizens Against the Death Penalty on Tuesday evening, May 20th at 7:00 p.m. in the Westminster Room of First Presbyterian Church on Adams and Park.

Elections will be held and there will be a brief presentation by Jeanne Rewa of Equal Justice Works and Mark Elliott of Floridians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty.  They will discuss plans for organizing efforts in North Florida.

Along with the ACLU, we are presenting “Freedom to Live,” a 30 minute film of compelling stories of people personally affected by America’s capital punishment system.  The film offers a unique window into its unfairness and inhumanity. “Freedom to Live” also demonstrates that when people get involved, lives can be saved.

As of today, Saturday, there is no word on the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision on the possible execution of Mark Schwab.  We will keep you posted.

Chair, TCADP
