Summary & Review: Just Mercy by Bryan Stevenson: Equal Justice Initiative, American Judicial System, Systemic Corruption, Mercy for the Vulnerable

In a lawyer-memoir as thrilling as real-life John Grisham, author and lawyer Bryan Stevenson chronicles his life story founding the Equal Justice Initiative, through which he provides free counsel to death row inmates and fights for criminal justice across the Deep South and beyond. With hard-hitting evidence, Stevenson argues his case that the American judicial system is extremely biased against the poor and mentally ill, educating readers on this bias and building support for the poor, incarcerated, condemned; the most vulnerable of the sufferers.
