Deborah's Journal

I so appreciate your love and support in my speaking out against the death penalty. It's taken me a long, long time to come this far. It's still scary, but I think with a little practice and as receptive an audience as I had on Wednesday, I'll be less nervous.

Amazing things are happening. Partly as a result of my participation in that meeting, I've been invited to attend a one day training in death penalty abolition advocacy, held by Murder Victims' Families for Human Rights. It's in mid-September in New Orleans.

I have no idea what I'm getting myself into. I'm just doing the next right thing...and the next.
