food was beautiful. I wanted flavors, in there you don’t
get any flavors.”

Last day of Julie Green: At Home with Family exhibition

In 2017, after 25 years wrongful conviction, exoneree
Patrick Prince had a delicious first meal at Little Goat
Diner.
Black individuals are seven times more likely to be
wrongfully convicted of murder than whites. First Meal
is a collaboration with exonerees and the Center on
Wrongful Convictions at Northwestern University.

“(Police misconduct) played a role in more than half of
the 2,400 exonerations documented nationwide over
the last three decades. For Black men wrongly
convicted of murder, the proportion was 78 percent.”
In 2019, I painted “Huwe Burton Said Truth Freed Me,
Music Kept Me Sane While I Waited”; the reply
became the title. I copied Burton’s beautiful
handwriting in this detail. had a first meal
of vegan squash lasagna at Red Rooster in Harlem and
is now a marathon runner, activist and emcee.
At age sixteen, Huwe Burton was forced to make a
false confession of murder of mother and was
incarcerated for twenty years.
Burton, shown in red, had vegan squash lasagna at
Red Rooster in Harlem. - Julie Green

For his first meal, the exoneree had a Burger King Whopper and threw up. Juan Melendez spent 17 years on Florida’s death row.
