In Just Mercy, Stevenson shows us the inhumanity of the U.S. prison system. Today, we will discuss the road to dismantling that system with a leading abolitionist and One Books spring speaker: Andrea Ritchie. Andrea Ritchie has over 30 years of experience in organizing, litigating, writing about the criminalization of women of color and LGBTQ people in the U.S. After last year's pandemic and economic recession collided with police violence, Ritchie explains why recentering the defund movement on the needs of these marginalized groups is more important than ever.
