In May of 2024, our Executive Director, M Cathy Harmon-Christian embarked on a new project: to re-member back into our community all those lost to executions in Georgia since 1976.
By their very violence, executions dis-member people from our society. They seek to eradicate a person based on something they have done or were accused of doing, from the fabric of society.
We, at GFADP, fundamentally stand against such dis-memberment.
We know that every person, no matter what they have done, are part of our community of humanity. Like 70% of the world's countries, we know that we can hold people accountable if they have committed harm without murdering them.
And so begins our re-membering.
