The National Death Row Inmate Restitution Art Show consisting of art work by death row inmate artists seeking to make restitution, "opens" to the web-surfing public on a website devoted to promoting healing between offenders and victims: http://www.restitutioninc.org Cyberspace visitors to the art show receive a commemorative print of original art work for each $20 tax deductible donation. The donations are being distributed to a list of victims and charitable organizations such as Doctors Without Borders and P.R.O.U.D., a North Carolina organization that works with at-risk children. "Although the inmates receive no financial benefit from making restitution, the emotional and spiritual benefits are profound. In an effort to promote a more peaceful society, these inmates seek to heal themselves by using art to make restitution," says Betsy Wolfenden, executive director of Restitution Incorporated, the non-profit that organized the cyberspace art show. Restitution Inc. promotes healing between offenders and victims. One death row inmate, Michael Fullwood, established a college fund for his daughter after killing her mother 15 years ago when his daughter was just an infant. Proceeds from note card sales made from Fullwood's art work support his daughter's education. When his daughter found out about her college fund, she communicated with her dad for the very first time. Another section of the website called "Victims Forgive" contains stories written by family members of murder victims who strive to find healing and forgiveness in the aftermath of tragic violence. Inmates who have committed violent crimes ranging from rape to murder also offer their apologies on the website to those they have harmed. __________ earthradioTV.com - Alternative News Forum for ecology, politics & consciousness.
