Join Amnesty International this Friday to view Death Penalty Documentary DEADLINE

[MMcLean at aiusa.org]

You're invited to join Amnesty International USA's Program to Abolish the
Death Penalty
THIS FRIDAY JULY 30th, 8 p.m.
to view the feature-length documentary film DEADLINE, addressing capital
punishment in the USA.

About the film:
On January 2003, Republican Governor George Ryan granted blanket clemency
to all 167 people on death row in Illinois, commuting their sentences to
life without parole. With astounding access to special clemency hearings,
the death row prisoners, exonerated men and Governor Ryan himself,
directors Katy Chevigny and Kirsten Johnson bring us directly into the
emotional and legal storm surrounding Ryan's decision.
