—Addresses important issues: In recent years, the Black Lives Matter movement has raised awareness of the challenges our country faces with respect to criminal justice reform, mass incarceration (more than 2 million prisoners in the US), police brutality, and false convictions—most of which has fallen on the shoulders of people of color. —A unique memoir angle: The book's dual narrative blends the contrasting points of view of the author as a privileged twenty-four-year-old sequestered against her will in a high-profile murder case and the same author as a seventy-year-old whose age and personal insights have allowed a new understanding of how the system took advantage of her youth and white privilege to achieve its desired end; it is one of few narratives on the topic written from the point of view of a juror. —Timely themes: The recent murders of George Floyd and Ahmaud Arbery have raised a national consciousness about the ways racism is imbedded into our national psyche and in particular our criminal justice system. —For readers who liked . . . :The 1619 Project by Nikole Hannah-Jones, Caste: The Origins of Our Discontents by Isabel Wilkerson, or Somebody's Daughter: A Memoir by Ashley C. Ford
