Video Description
REMEMBER TO SUBSCRIBE! → https://bit.ly/2CwckC3 - This is a chilling portrait of the final days on death row of Wanda Jean Allen, a mentally disabled African-American woman condemned to die in Oklahoma for the murder of her girlfriend. The filmmaker focuses her camera not just on the convict but also on the families involved, resulting in a broad, gripping, and tragic piece of Americana. Wanda's diminished intellectual capacity made many question if capital punishment had been justified. Did bias and stereotypes in Oklahoma—a conservative, puritanical State that has seen a surge in anti-LGBTQ legislation over the years—also play a role in Allen's conviction and sentencing?
