i felt a pain in my heart for again. i had to question never so much but again sometimes you didn't want to talk about the past but there were so many questions. oh how could you survive something like they're. not coming would you fix a broken. wrong i tell people what to do ok. yeah oh. for that picture it was actually in the living on the same couch but. i think it was grandma maybe grandpa i just think find it in very simple terms they

letter q if the power goes out we will hang you and if the rope break by god some will take out on the trail should. be. good for the few of the bands who jordan would stay here so he said in the chair would spare his family now we get the big one the stuff we come back was it said their stuff as it were we got to be here he didn't look. all right we're back he still did. that when. albert were here and he still didn't move i suppose. it would take all that louisville until he killed albert. look at that we're looking at that word from a look at oh my god what we got two people trying to elicit false as. this is over this is really easy just to drink out of his beer. i mean. you were sleeping

really good. memory everything. is things i destroyed all my brain cells ended up. and most of them for the prison show on t.v. if he used a nine point one he reckoned i only nine point five and galveston i am pleased to announce here in the show is the witness to innocence the texas freedom to or we've got eight exonerations in town tonight who have all been wrongfully convicted sent to death row and then exonerated and ron you are from a seed new mexico know i was on death row now makes you i just have to be passin through the state wrong place wrong time you're just cruising down on your motorcycle we never stopped in new mexico we cruise right through it the murder it happened a week before we even got there

a cop had killed this guy and they they've actually framed us to cover up for the cop who we let this in a sense we're all exonerated people from death row we've all been on the road we know what it's like down there right but we're the people that are true to our word we're told we're going to leave there we're going to do something about this what we're doing and the way we do this is we do all over and we try to end the death penalty. but when i went to death row i wasn't arrested i was rescued i would either died then tilled shot or i would've killed somebody because of biker wars back and forth back and forth people killing each other. i went to eleven funerals in the club killed by other other clubs. then when i got out i didn't talk about it a lot of people go they go right to the press and they start talking the media all over stuff i did my head anyone anything to do it i got to get my life and tracked

i have to work and i have to start my life over. along without help. i worked eighteen hours a day i didn't want to talk to people i didn't like everybody knows my face so i hid at work i didn't ever give a thought to the other guys i thought i didn't know who is the other guys that were innocent on death row. are. i'll practice my talking my speech in here are generally watching t.v. with nobody around i like the politician much like to speak right now i don't. i've never given the same speech twice never.

let you know. that you're a lot of the stuff you cut. when i was real little we learn how to do it to hear you have a sack on your back or we're going to texas so with a minute. before i was eighteen i was trying to get arrested over twenty five to thirty times when i went off among them . and turn eighty. when i haven't heard. go to your room. and i had. a robbery case that i was probably guilty that. i was convicted him given of five lifeson. and that's when i began to work oh my separate began to change. and denounce my past and join the political movement

a prison movement and then in nineteen seventy three nov twenty seventh i came as i was accused of leading up rival poor people's guy murdered to kill whatever and that for the next nine years i had to fight for my life. first of all let me. say thank each and every one of you all for being here tonight to see i'm here tonight not because of the system but in spite of. i'm here in the night because you were there for you know just like you. got the call. that the time when i was convicted i wanted for trial in my second trial i was going to get it and since it died that's at court will be somebody that they say we will hear he passes without his black media so whatever this was he ever gives me said it walking a good game with his head i would have to try with no more. why should i have been

more apprehensive. i don't care if you slept on a curtain to stand up against racism or stand up against social injustice the stand up against all. that i don't know what all you're going to school some of you are going to school to be lost but i just want to put one more recipe into your resume . take a because you don't have to be difficult but take up the call for social justice and i'm going to share with you my for when you take up the cause for social justice it's called if you want. a better teacher and a better guy a problem with. my name is right my name is really take the test i didn't come here to mess with you i just come here to bring witness to.

the death yes. in some cases you know i did but. i did it now because i met too many people that were innocent and were on death row . and almost died. an innocent person. and the reason the way we get the word out and that's the way he is you gotta teach who got to educate the public to change their mind get a change opinion we always had hope but you know it's there i got a calendar on a wall i'm putting x.'s in the squares i know when i'm going to die basically one time when they come fast we walked into the church i was nine days from execution. we said that race or barbers are here to add our voice to you but your record

remember is one day could be your brother your father your son or your daughter. or you if you say you cannot bring them back we're. going to. i'm so happy to be here i'm so honored to be able again to open this meeting and share this time with our family. this is the first time here. and you know is there any. change. at which you with this one. right off. your.

death reza spooky place hear other people crying and i people killing themselves you want to kill yourself everyone sure that you're a monster everyone's positive that you're a monster and you deserve to die. when you use the term. not you know it's different from your term in a sense but how if you're a good father you know i jury right you've got your formula. and we survive you now but you survive that's right you survive that's it that's the way to look at it but we don't we're very we were just. the special thing about going to susan's was it just being with someone else and been through this it was like a veteran training meeting they get to talk to each other. nobody else in the world

belongs to this club like they do hundred fifty six of them. i said. one of the best part of the gatherings ok is after everything's done and we go up in and we pick some room usually is my room we party we bring cases of beer and liquor and we bring it into the room and we're not a camera anymore and we could talk over just exonerates we get together and talk and everything like that we're drinking have a good time people are passed out on the florida smoking dope i mean out the window we have a good time. yeah ok i am i looked out my yeah yeah i am i i. look out me down but

i'm glad i think about it that when we first come together i will see. that. album not everything i have got from one part. of the outfit he wrote i know it out and you know why why our there have. never been until march. you know the rest that we take a. year to stay thirteen years before we realize that you were susan you think you're going to kill you on a day that bad very different than. i remember when i got out at that prison it took me i could've walked out of the courtroom i do want to go. after eleven years i say go back up to. i couldn't believe i have to be here and. i have a feeling i can get from on it definitely up there in chile but i'll probably have

to spend the rest of my life in prison because of where their scripts but i'm guessing. they could kill me that person if i had any type of coup or how i was going to be are treated be treated interview i've gone before i go make them kill. who takes it very. he make wonderful friends and and actually did did well for several years and then. he suffered from from post-traumatic stress disorder. really seriously dead and he just started have and he started having problems again

and then he started on beer and he came here he drank it. one time he was here and first thing you do is going to bear when he got up in the morning and i said greg you know it seems to me that you have. you're never completely sober. and he said that's exactly the way i wanted to be. a lot of people when they leave prison they think they're free they're done they don't know something horrible followed them off to death row not supposed to manage stress disorder they don't know what it is they've heard the term they i don't have that i'm fine i don't feel anything they don't understand all the symptoms at durham they don't understand that they're having nightmares that they're having flashbacks and standing anxiety attacks the depression is the worst depression is

yours that's what basically what drives people to drugs and alcohol one thing and early on he said after he was down there he said now. i want you all to can can you your lives and don't worry about me so that carrots. i'm here today to talk a. great. i've been known great over

ten years every time we got together and witness innocent we was always happy to see each other. and greg was full of life greg was the greatest speaker in our nation i often tease great after hearing him speak. as a great one of the greatest speakers in our nation you are the best you look at me to judge you not so bad to self. only greg to respond like. in the last i would like to say. to you all if by some unfortunate circumstances if you all of feeling sorry for people like me and greg hart. go. somewhere i read the most happy is a peoples don't necessarily have the best of things they just make the best of what

comes their way happiness comes to go from struggle both in fight or to those who have served. the most brightest future what i will be based on a forgiven or forgotten. i am with you and you are with me we are deeply honored that you gave us the opportunity to come here not to say goodbye but to say i see you later mr willard.

i think. is it a get out there you go be out that's what we do here we've been bout. the ads out there that.

we know why but we human beings we black people born in america and we must oppose this and fight that. this is not a bad day and right is not about food where note is about is about the world. we make america a better place we go make the world a better place. to know. china's property. fields become cities. rivers water

parks forests. mostly empty. brings international before the illusion of a thriving metropolis and the mix of an invulnerable economy. china is a dream a witness documentary at this time on al-jazeera. the most memorable moments with al-jazeera was when i was on air as hosni mubarak fell with the crowds in tahrir square talking. as. if something happens anywhere in the world how does iraq is in place we're able to

cover this like no other news organization. were able to do it properly. and that is our strength. in the heart of the amazon the libyan family has put their lives in peril to harvest brazil nuts. but it's getting the congo to the capital is an even more dangerous challenge. risking it to the libya. at this time on al jazeera. al-jazeera where every. time we see the rain

forests of the city we continue on our current way we won't have whole race within twenty thirty forty years from now so your sense lay trying to recreate the ecosystem but under controlled conditions the my goal is still the gallup poll still has a cause for the decline of the great barrier is still sizeable but we've got to stop now and we need to get everyone behind the solution tag no at this time on hold as iraq. i'm. about you. know some of it i like. protests in kenya off to parliament passes a new law seen as paving the way for the president's re-election.
