  • ATLANTA, GA - SEPT 16, 2009: Former president Jimmy Carter visited Emory for his 28th annual Carter Town Hall meeting for Emory University's 1,300 freshmen. The freshman are required to attend the yearly ritual, in which Carter responds to seemingly random questions written by the students. This year's meeting took place against a backdrop of Carter's comment the previous day, quoted by Fox News, that Congressman Joe Wilson's outburst during President Obama's recent speech to Congress was "based on racism."

<br />
The questions at the Emory event said as much about Carter as it did about the students, many of whom spent the Q&A period texting on their cell phones. The opening question of the evening was what he thought of Kanye West's outburst at the VMA Music awards. Carter responded that he thought it was uncalled for.<br />
<br />
Midway through the hour-long session, he took a question about Obama and racism and responded, "When a radical fringe element of demonstrators and others begin to attack the president of the United States as an animal or as a reincarnation of Adolf Hitler, or when they wave signs in the air that say that we should have buried Obama with Kennedy, those kind of attacks are beyond the bounds of the way presidents have ever been accepted, even with people who disagree [with them]. I think people who are guilty of that type of personal attack against Obama have been influenced to a major degree by a belief that he should not be president because he is African-American. It's a racist attitude."<br />
<br />
The final question addressed how he upheld his obligations to  his family when he was president. "My family took care of me," he responded, and with that he left the stage and immediately went to Rosalynn Carter, his wife of 57 years, took her hand and exited.

  • ATLANTA, Georgia - September 15, 2011: Kung Li organizes boxes containing more than 600,000 signatures in support of clemency for death-row inmate Troy Davis in the reception area of the Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles at the James "Sloppy" Floyd Building in Atlanta.<br />
<br />
Death-penalty opponents and civil rights leaders this morning delivered more than 600,000 petition signatures to the state Board of Pardons and Paroles asking officials to grant clemency to Troy Davis, the long-time death-row inmate who's maintained he didn't kill Savannah police officer Mark MacPhail more than 20 years ago. More than 40,000 signatures were collected in Georgia.<br />
<br />
According to Amnesty International, a human rights group which has helped raise awareness about Davis' case, nine individuals have signed affidavits implicating another man for the officer's killing..."Mark MacPhail is a hero and we grieve for his mother and family," the NAACP's Edward DuBose said at a morning news conference. But "too many people have come forward and said Troy Davis did not kill MacPhail."<br />
<br />
The five-member Georgia Board of Pardons and Paroles, which meets Monday, is most likely the last hope for Davis, who's scheduled to be executed on Sept. 21. A majority vote by the board will decide whether Davis' sentence is commuted or if his execution will proceed.

  • ATLANTA, Georgia - September 21, 2011: Jared Heur of Amnesty International updated the crowd from the stage as the evening progressed but little news of Davis' fate was forthcoming.  "We have the ability to change things," he said reflecting on the fact that so many Troy Davis protests had sprung up worldwide that Amnesty had lost count. "They have wanted to kill Troy Davis 3 times and each time they have backed down. Right now they are trying to figure out how they can justify killing an innocent man."
