4.0

This is a very powerful book, in which the author looks at different points of view -- the boys who grew to be men during their time in jail, the judges, the attorneys, the NAACP, the Communists, the two accusers, the different groups of people in Alabama. Read in the light of the murders of Trayvon Martin and Jordan Davis, one realizes how far, in some ways, we still have to go.
