2. Fourteen Days in May
Hey everyone! This week we cover a true crime documentary, listener discretion is advised.
Fourteen Days in May (1987), a documentary that recounts the final two weeks before the execution of Edward Earl Johnson. Edward is an American prisoner convicted of murder and attempted rape and imprisoned in the Mississippi State Penitentiary. He protested his innocence and claimed that his confession had been made under distress and the coercion of a police officer and investigator. This documentary argues that the criminal justice system and the death penalty maintains that capital punishment is disproportionately applied to the Black individuals convicted of crimes against whites. Listen in as we cover this documentary, share Edward’s story, and speak on the embedded racism and classism within the criminal justice system and surrounding the death penalty.
