Update: Arnold, acting more like an action movie star than a public official who has talked about rehabilitation, has denied clemency. You can still call or write him to express your opinion on his decision.

On Sunday, Danny Glover, Boots Riley of the Coup, Kevin Epps, Barbara Becnel (who edited the children's books) and several others spoke about why Stanley Tookie Williams should not be executed on Monday.  Then the movie Redemption was screened at the Victoria Theater.

On Thursday, Arnold held a hearing.  He could announce his decision as early as today or as late as Monday. 



It is still important to call ( 916-445-2841 ) and email ( governor@governor.ca.gov ).  More info at savetookie.org.  And more photos from the event.

Danny Glover participated in a discussion of the death penalty on NPR moderated by Farai Chideya.
