Christa Pike Survived Her Execution. What Would Angela Davis Say?

On Oct 1, Tennessee spent 53 minutes trying to execute Christa Pike, and failed. Most people are asking whether she deserved it. Angela Davis asks a different question: should any government have the power to decide who lives and who dies? A licensed psychologist breaks down the failed execution, Angela Davis's case for abolition, what the research says about whether the death penalty prevents murder, and why we still remember Colleen Slemmer.

Where do you stand? I want the respectful disagreement too.
