The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life, Freedom, and Justice
Anthony Ray HintonBecky Calzada@CoreyLISD @kickingitwithak I listened to Just Mercy before watching the movie. It was an eye-opening view of the criminal justice system in our country. I would also recommend The Sun Does Shine: How I Found Life & Freedom After Death Row by Anthony Ray Hinton. He was a character featured on Just Mercy.
