On this day in 1976, the Supreme Court gave the de On this day in 1976, the Supreme Court gave the death penalty a green light, and the modern machinery of state-sanctioned execution was born.

In Gregg v. Georgia, the Court reversed its earlier decision in Furman v. Georgia and ruled that capital punishment could be constitutional if applied "fairly."

Nearly 50 years later, we know the truth. It's still racist, arbitrary, and unjust.

The death penalty often impacts people who face si The death penalty often impacts people who face significant barriers to being fully seen and heard in the legal system, including people with intellectual disabilities and serious mental health conditions. 

Timothy Richardson is one such person. He lives with an intellectual disability and has spent more than 25 years on North Carolina's death row. 

As we honor Disability Pride Month, we're taking a look at a system that often fails to see disabled people fully. Disability justice is an essential part of the movement to end the death penalty.

Visit the link in our bio to read more about Timothy's story and learn how people with intellectual disabilities and mental illness are unfairly sentenced.
