This centennial episode of Under the Tree features an enlightening conversation with Stanley Howard, the legendary jailhouse lawyer and founder of the Death Row 10, a group of African American men on Illinois' death row who organized a powerful campaign from their prison cells to save their lives and to spark a new abolitionist movement decades ago. The Death Row Ten and their mothers linked up with courageous activists, intrepid lawyers, relentless journalists, and a growing wave of social protest against police violence to demand justice in their cases, and an end to the barbaric practice of capital punishment. Stanley Howard is an organizer/activist, a fighter, and the author of Tortured by Blue: The Chicago Police Torture Story.
