Troy Davis needs your help: Executive Date set for 9/21
Troy Davis is set to be executed by the state of Georgia on September 21st for a crime he may not have committed. The U.S. Supreme Court refused to hear his final appeal earlier this year. But the story remains the same - Troy Davis could very well be innocent.
Davis was convicted on the basis of witness testimony - seven of the nine original witnesses have since recanted or changed their testimony. Troy has survived three previous execution dates, because people like you kept the justice system in check! Let Georgia authorities know you oppose the death penalty for Troy Davis!
Musician Chad Stokes (Dispatch, State Radio) and The Ruff Shod Foundation have teamed up with Amnesty International and HeadCount to offer some "Music for Action." When you lend your voice to a petition to Georgia officials, send a message to Troy on death row, or write a letter to the editor, you'll receive a pair of previously-unreleased tracks -- the brand new "All My Possessions (Ode to Troy)" by Chad Stokes featuring Sierra Leone's Refugee All Stars and "State of Georgia" by State Radio - live at the Boston Pavilion!
