National Humanities Center's video: Steve Earle How I Came to Oppose the Death Penalty

@Steve Earle, “How I Came to Oppose the Death Penalty”

Grammy-winning singer-songwriter Steve Earle discusses the impact of witnessing his father write a letter to the Texas governor on behalf of a condemned man in San Antonio. Having already begun to reflect on the importance of political engagement and the ethics of capital punishment, Earle felt especially moved by both the book and film version of Truman Capote’s “In Cold Blood” in the late 1960s. In tandem, these experiences contributed to his becoming a passionate advocate against the death penalty.
