An Affinity for Angels

Reginald S. Lewis’ play poses the question: If killing is wrong for individuals, then why is it permissible for the state? Written by a death row inmate, An Affinity for Angels is an imaginative play about a group of middle school children who wrestle with the moral and immoral implications of capital punishment.
