'Just Mercy' Film Available For Free To Educate People On Systemic Racism
By Jessica Dutra - @jessduitt
In the wake of George Floyd's murder, Warner Bros. has made its recent film Just Mercy available to rent for free to serve as an educational tool on "the systemic racism that plagues our society."
The real-life legal drama follows the life of human rights lawyer and social activist Bryan Stevenson (played by Michael B. Jordan) as he defends Walter McMillian (played by Jamie Foxx), a wrongfully convicted Alabama man who was sentenced to death in 1988.
