Houston Protest of 200th Rick Perry Execution
The 200th execution under Gov. Perry is now scheduled to take place on June 2, 2009.
This appalling milestone will be marked by protests around the state.
In Houston, the 200th legal lynching protest will be held at The Old Hanging Tree on the corner of Rusk and Bagby in downtown Houston from 5:00 until 6:30.
A press conference will be held at 5:00.
Following the press conference, there will be an open mic so all can register their
outrage at another day of infamy for the state of Texas in its quest for executions.
This protest is being organized by the Texas Death Penalty Abolition Movement.
If your organization would like to co-sponsor this protest in Houston, contact the Texas Death Penalty Abolition Movement at abolition.movement@hotmail.com.
