Book Study: Just Mercy

The Truth and Reconciliation committee will hold its next event on Bryan Stevenson’s book Just Mercy on Wednesday, March 23, at 7:00 p.m. Maria Florentina, a criminal defense attorney who works on post-conviction cases in Maryland, will give a presentation about criminal justice reform via Zoom.  If you would like to attend this event, please contact Tracy Boyd at tlboyd23@gmail.com.

John Grisham writes of Stevenson, “… Bryan Stevenson … is very much alive and doing God’s work fighting for the poor, the oppressed, the voiceless, the vulnerable, the outcast, and those with no hope. Just Mercy is his inspiring and powerful story.”  Isn’t this what we are called to do as Christians: fight for the poor, the oppressed, the voiceless, the vulnerable, the outcast, and those with no hope?

It’s never too late to read the book and watch the movie in your own time. When purchasing the book, consider supporting Black-owned businesses.  Here is a link to Black-owned independent book sellers.
