Episode description
Today, we are re-airing one of our favorite episodes.
Bryan Stevenson (founder of the Equal Justice Initiative) is committed to ending mass incarceration and excessive punishment, to challenging racial and economic injustice, and to protecting basic human rights for the most vulnerable among us.
In this episode, Kate and Bryan discuss:
- The hope that motivates Bryan in this slow, sometimes frustrating work of justice
- What it means to be a ‘stonecatcher’ (and why it serves both the one being condemned and the one doing the condemning)
- The power of forgiveness, maybe especially toward those who don’t deserve it
CW: discussion of slavery, lynching, and other racist violence, death row
