Anthony Ray Hinton was the 152nd person exonerated from death row since 1983. One of the longest serving death row prisoners in Alabama history and among the longest serving condemned prisoners to be freed after presenting evidence of innocence.

Today he works as a Community Educator at the Equal Justice Initiative, tirelessly and powerfully advocating for the abolition of the death penalty.

In conjunction with the presentation, Hinton will do a 30-minute book signing where a bookseller will be available for on-site purchases.

This event is live and in-person and will not be recorded. No registration required.
