This book will enlighten you in a way that will sicken you and break your heart. This is the greatest country in the world…or is it? You begin to realize it is, provided you’re white and well off. The most disheartening notion is that Mr. Stevenson’s book is only filled with a few examples of miscarriages of justice compared to the thousands out there…men, women, and even children languishing in our prisons without a voice.
A powerful true story about the potential for mercy to redeem us, and a clarion call to fix our broken system of justice—from one of the most brilliant and influential lawyers of our time
Bryan Stevenson was a young lawyer when he founded the Equal Justice Initiative, a legal practice dedicated to defending those most desperate and in need: the poor, the wrongly condemned, and women and children trapped in the farthest reaches of our criminal justice system. One of his first cases was that of Walter McMillian, a young man who was sentenced to die for a notorious murder he insisted he didn’t commit. The case drew Bryan into a tangle of conspiracy, political machination, and legal brinksmanship—and transformed his understanding of mercy and justice forever.
