Summary

Can memorials transform thinking? Have you ever felt something change inside you looking at a sculpture or walking through an especially powerful exhibit? Can representing injustice lead to collective understanding? Maybe. From the 9/11 site to the hills of Montgomery, Alabama, people are finding ways to confront past horrors and visitors are leaving with a Never Again spirit that just might save us. Join us for this special episode in our Rupture and Repair series with one of our country's most thoughtful and impactful leaders, civil rights attorney Bryan Stevenson (author of Just Mercy).
