We did it! An absolute honor accepting this #AnthemAwards yesterday for our collective work on #commutetherow last year—which took 37 people off the federal death row—along with Madeo Studio and Mission Wired. Thanks to everyone that supports our mission!

NEW: We released a report exposing how death penalty cases are often plagued with errors and misconduct that lead to wrongful convictions. Black defendants are more likely to be sentenced to death for a crime they didn’t commit because of the systemic racism baked into the death penalty.

We are finalists for two Anthem Awards, along with our partners from MissionWired and Madeo Studio and were selected from over 2,000 submissions across 42 countries! Stay tuned for updates as we attend the ceremony in New York City tomorrow night. www.anthemawards.com/about-us/
