Inside: Voices from Death Row

By George T. Wilkerson (and others)Publisher: Scuppernong Editions ISBN: 1732932867Genre: Personal Essay, Creative Nonfiction Price: $20.00

Member and writer George T. Wilkerson is featured in this recent anthology highlighting voices from NC's Death Row.

All of us are more than our worst crime, but less than our highest ideal. Inside: Voices from Death Row takes us on a journey into the hearts and minds of four men on Death Row brave enough to share the truth of the American criminal injustice system. At times hopeful, at times heart-breaking, this poignant exploration of what it means to be human sets out to prove that while we are shaped by our past, we are not defined by it.
