Facing Death: A Conversation with Keith LaMar

Keith LaMar has spent more than 30 years on death row for crimes he says he did not commit. With his execution date set for January 13, 2027, and his final legal options dwindling, Keith speaks candidly about betrayal by his own attorneys, the indifference of the courts, and why he believes the public may be his last chance at justice. But this is also a conversation about life—about what it means to hold onto your humanity, to love, and to create, even in a place designed to strip all of that away.
