The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life and Freedom on Death Row by Anthony Ray Hinton, Lara Love Hardin

challenging emotional hopeful reflective sad tense medium-paced

4.5

A necessary and heart wrenching read. The last 20% was especially moving, especially as Hinton challenges the complicity of everyone wrapped up in the “justice” system. One of my favorite lines was when Hinton astutely points out that everyone is either part of the death squad or those banging on the bars. In other words, either you fight the death penalty or you are complicit in it. A much needed call to action.
