Brian Stevenson, Attorney and Law Professor, has a beautiful attitude. He has dedicated his life to defending the people our society tends to ignore, the prison population. He believes that we are more than the worst thing that we have ever done. He sees the humanity in everyone, even those who are too vicious to live in society.
He says that mercy is what you give to others not because they deserve it, but with the hope that it will come back to you.
Grace is power. Love is justice. You measure the health of your soul by how you treat the poor and condemned. His dedication has opened up my awareness. He is a rare and deeply empathetic person, humble and authentic.
