TRUE JUSTICE: BRYAN STEVENSON’S FIGHT FOR EQUALITY

Produced and Directed by Peter Kunhardt, Teddy Kunhardt, George Kunhardt

This feature documentary focuses on Bryan Stevenson’s life and career – particularly his indictment of the U.S. criminal justice system for its role in codifying modern systemic racism – and tracks the intertwined histories of slavery, lynching, segregation and mass incarceration. Highlighting watershed moments involving cases and clients, TRUE JUSTICE offers a rare glimpse into the human struggle that is required when the poor and people of color are wrongly condemned or unfairly sentenced, and explores the personal toll it has taken on Stevenson and his colleagues.

It also shares the story of the opening of Equal Justice Initiative’s heart-wrenching memorial in Montgomery, Alabama, dedicated to the more than 4,400 victims of lynching. The memorial stands as part of a larger project of seeking truth and reconciliation.
