About the event
Join us tomorrow at 1 pm to help bring attention to the atrocity that is happening in Oklahoma this very minute. There will be live music and the community coming together to stand in solidarity for the life of Julius Jones. Below are the details. Please shareÂ
Julius Jones is an innocent Black man on death row in Oklahoma. His case was impacted by racism and his alibis were not allowed to testify, nor did he match the witness description. Julius has been on death row for over 20 years and these next two months are critical to the campaign to set him free. After being recommended twice by the parole board for clemency, the current Governor of Oklahoma has decided to disregard this and murder an innocent man.
How can you help? Across the country there were will be multiple events happening to try and get this on the media's radar to get state and federal action involved to save Julius' life. Below are several links to find out more information about the case and how to contact government decisions-makers directly.
