Join people from across our state in Raleigh on the 17th anniversary of NC’s last execution and to demand a future with no more death row. We’ll gather inside at Pullen Memorial Baptist Church for a short program that will include reading the names of the 43 people executed in NC since 1984 and spoken word. Then we will march about a mile to Central Prison, where we’ll hold vigil in protest of state-sponsored killing. There will be some shuttles between locations for those who don’t want to march and to facilitate parking. This is a free event and everyone is welcome, but please register to help us plan and so we can contact you with any updates.

Outside Central Prison on Tuesday, we held vigil t Outside Central Prison on Tuesday, we held vigil to mark 20 years without an execution and to say let the last execution be the last. We're so grateful to everyone who joined us.
Today is a monumental day for North Carolina. It h Today is a monumental day for North Carolina. It has officially been 20 years since our state's last execution. Tonight, we're gathering in Raleigh to honor this milestone. 

We’ll be joined by Rabbi Sandra Lawson of Carolina Jews for Justice, Rev. Esther Hethcox of First Presbyterian Church in Durham, death row exonerees, murder victim family members, faith leaders from many traditions, and others whose lives have been directly touched by the death penalty.

We want to fill the sanctuary of Pullen Memorial Baptist Church and the walk to Central Prison with people who believe 20 years should become 30, 40, and forever. We hope you'll be one of them.
