Manifesting Justice: Wrongly Convicted Women Reclaim Their Rights by Valena Beety
challenging
informative
inspiring
slow-paced
I enjoyed some parts of this book, while other parts felt unnecessarily dragged out. It might not help that I was teaching a unit on mass incarceration to my students, reading Bryan Stevenson’s Just Mercy with them, while I was reading this on my own, because ultimately it felt sort of like a not-as-good Just Mercy. The book is important, the work is important, but the way it was written could have been more compelling, I think.
