Stevenson should run for public office. He is someone who really supports the underrepresented, poor people in our country. The prison system, esp the private prison systems in the southern US, systematically apprehend and prosecute people to the fullest of the law often disregarding evidence of innocence. Learning the devastation of juvenile and adult lives brought tears to my eyes. Stevenson has committed his life to bringing justice to those falsely accused or given sentences in excess for crimes committed. He pushes back on our system that incarcerates people of color out of proportion and for minor or trumped up offenses. He works tirelessly and seems like a saint. Could not put this book down.
