Tribute to Tookie

TRIBUTE: Stanley Tookie Williams, 1953-2005 
 
premiered on December 13, 2007 
 
Hollywood Black Film Festival - June 8
Boston International Film Festival - June 12
San Francisco Black Film Festival - June 15

"TRIBUTE: Stanley Tookie Williams, 1953-2005, a provocative and moving documentary examining condemned prisoner, Crips co-founder and Nobel Peace Prize nominee Stanley Tookie Williams, who was tortured to death on December 13, 2005, by lethal injection at San Quentin. It took him 35 minutes to die. TRIBUTE includes filmed scenes from a staged reenactment of that botched execution. The reenactment—as well as TRIBUTE—were produced and directed by writer Barbara Becnel and producer Shirley Neal, longtime friends of Williams. It was based on their real-life experience in that death chamber. TRIBUTE also includes controversial eulogies by Snoop Dogg, Tony Robbins and Louis Farrakhan—speaking at Williams’s memorial service—and never-before-seen footage of his ashes scattered by Becnel and Neal in South Africa, as he wished."
Director, Producer: Barbara Becnel
Director, Producer: Shirley Neal

When a cause comes along and you know in your bones that it is just, yet refuse to defend it--at that moment you begin to die. And I have never seen so many corpses walking around talking about justice.
