School of Transnational Law
Movie Night Comes Back!
法律图书馆丨电影展播
Movie: Just Mercy
Site: STL Law Libray
Date: November 25, 2021
Time: 7:00 p.m. to 9:30 p.m.
It is a movie about based on the true story of an African American death-row prisoner Walter McMillian, and his 28-year-old attorney Bryan Stevenson.
Those movies lines are the best introduction of the movie itself:
[T]his (Alabama) is where thousands of enslaved people were shipped in and paraded up the street to be sold.
. . . .
And now, this black boy from Delaware walks into their courtrooms and expects them to admit they convicted an innocent black man.
. . . .
This case becomes more than the trial of just a single defendant.
It becomes a test of whether we're going to be governed by fear and by anger, or by the rule of law.
