Racist Roots (Film Screening + Panel Discussion)
Tuesday, April 28 — 6-7:30 PM
NR | Documentary | 25m | USA
You are warmly invited to join the NC Coalition for Alternatives to the Death Penalty 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, hear from Alfred Rivera, who was exonerated in 1999 after spending over 2 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. Free and open to the public.
Racist Roots is a project of the Center for Death Penalty Litigation.
We thank the American Spirit Grant committee for making this screening possible.
