Just Mercy by Bryan Stevenson is a powerful book that dives into the realities of the criminal justice system and the injustices marginalized communities face. Through the perspective of Bryan Stevenson, the author, the book provides a compelling account of his experiences as a lawyer fighting for the rights of those unfairly condemned. It sheds light on the flawed humanity of the system and the struggle for justice in cases where racial bias and socioeconomic disparities play a significant role. Just Mercy not only exposes the harsh realities of wrongful convictions and the death penalty but also highlights the importance of compassion, understanding, and the pursuit of true justice in our society today.

Another piece of  information was the imagery words in Just Mercy that pointed out important scenes

Lastly, in Lesson 20 I wrote about how implicit bias is a big factor
