Bryan Stevenson is the director of the Equal Justice
Initiative in Montgomery, Alabama. EJI’s mission is to help people on death
row, incarcerated children, and those without a voice. Just Mercy tells the
stories of the people who have been wrongly accused, those who can’t speak for
themselves, and those who are affected by our broken justice system.
This is the best book I read all year. Bryan Stevenson is a
wonderful storyteller, and I often forgot that this is nonfiction. He is obviously
passionate about what he does and is trying to make a difference. Just Mercy
was an inspiring read.
If you like this book, you might also like The Other Wes Moore by Wes Moore.
