John DudaWE WILL NOT BE SILENCED: Maryland Anti-Death Penalty Activists Speak Out! 7/24/2008 @ 2640 (Baltimore, MD) (2008)

As the Maryland Commission on Capital Punishment prepares to gather public testimony and analysis of the state's use of the death penalty, legal action by the American Civil Liberties Union has revealed a campaign of illegal and unconstitutional infiltration and surveillance of the anti-death penalty movement by the Maryland State Police.

On Thursday, July 24, four activists from the Maryland abolitionist movement who were named in the Maryland State Police reports obtained by the ACLU spoke out about their experiences and what it means for the effort to abolish the death penalty in Maryland.

Speakers:

* Max Obuszewski - Baltimore Campaign to End the Death Penalty, Baltimore Pledge of Resistance
* Terry Fitzgerald - Baltimore Campaign to End the Death Penalty
* Mike Stark - Campaign to End the Death Penalty board member
* Dave Zirin - political sports columnist and Campaign to End the Death Penalty member
* Amy Fusting - MD Citizens Against State Executions
* David Rocah - ACLU of Maryland
