Of
racism and violence,

THE DEATH PENALTY.
The
National Black Catholic Apostolate for Life affirms that human life is
a
unique gift from God.
All
human life is sacred and inviolable.
Because
we believe that every human person is created in the image and likeness
of God, we
have a mission to defend human life in all its stages and in every
condition.
As
Black Catholics we call for the end of the death penalty, because
it offers our communities “the tragic illusion that we can defend life
by taking life.”
