TED Talks With Group Discussion
In an engaging and personal talk -- with cameo appearances from his grandmother and Rosa Parks -- human rights lawyer Bryan Stevenson shares some hard truths about America's justice system in this TED Talk, starting with a massive imbalance along racial lines: a third of the country's black male population has been incarcerated at some point in their lives.
Bryan Stevenson
is a public interest lawyer who has dedicated his career to helping the poor, the incarcerated and the condemned. He's the founder and executive director of the Equal Justice Initiative (EJI), an Alabama-based group that has won major legal challenges eliminating excessive and unfair sentencing, exonerating innocent prisoners on death row, confronting abuse of the incarcerated and the mentally ill, and aiding children prosecuted as adults. He is also the author of Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption.
Penn’s Village Operations Manager
Molly Clifford
will facilitate the discussion; in addition to that role, she is the part-time Executive Director of Prisoner Visitation and Support, which coordinates volunteer visitors at federal and military prisons across the country.
