Exploring the connection between the legacy of slavery and capital punishment, this book delves into how historical abolitionism has influenced contemporary anti-death penalty movements. It highlights the radicalism of today's abolitionists by drawing parallels with past efforts to end involuntary bondage. By examining relevant literature, the author advocates for a more radical approach to abolishing state-sanctioned executions, emphasizing the importance of understanding historical contexts in shaping current advocacy strategies.
