You are warmly invited to join NCCADP for a screening of Racist Roots, a 25-minute film that uncovers the deep entanglement between white supremacy, racial terror lynching, and North Carolina’s death penalty.

Following the film, you will hear from Ed Chapman, who was exonerated in 2008 after spending nearly 14 years wrongfully convicted on North Carolina’s death row.

This conversation will be moderated by NCCADP’s executive director, Noel Nickle, and will include time for Q&A.

This event is free and open to the public.

Racist Roots is a project of the Center for Death Penalty Litigation.
