Faith in Action to End the Death Penalty: Raising Our Voices as an Interfaith Community

This April, Amnesty International USA is hosting an Interfaith Action Against the Death Penalty. Amnesty activists and faith-based organizations are invited to advocate to abolish the federal death penalty and commute the sentences of two Black men, Billie Allen and Rocky Myers, who are currently facing the unjust and inhumane practice of capital punishment.

Join AIUSA and faith leaders from across the United States at this event, to learn more about the human rights impact of the death penalty in the US, the critical role communities of faith play in the campaign to end the death penalty, and how your community can join this vital movement!

Speakers will include:

• Amnesty International Death Penalty Abolition Coordinator
• Reverend Sharon Risher, Ordained Minister and Chair of the Board of Death Penalty Action
• Lenny Foster, Former Director of Navajo Nation Corrections Project and Spiritual Advisor
• Cantor Michael Zoosman, Founder of L’Chaim! Jews Against the Death Penalty
• Yusuf Ahmed Nur, Associate Professor at Indiana University Kokomo, Member of the Bloomington Multi-Faith Alliance, and Spiritual Advisor
• Sister Eileen Reilly, Religious Engagement Associate for the Catholic Mobilizing Network
