Sister Helen Prejean sits in the French Memorial Chapel at Hastings College before her speech as part of the Lilly Vocation and Values Lecture. Prejean is best known for writing "Dead Man Walking," about an inmate on death row in Louisiana. From her speech she commented: "Eighty percent of all executions are in states that practiced slavery. Do you think race has anything to do with the death penalty?"
