Praise for The Fear of Too Much Justice: No one has more experience with the racism that infects our legal system than Steve Bright, and no one has worked more relentlessly to expose and eliminate it. Read this book. It will inform and infuriate you in equal measure, and equip you to join the long struggle toward justice. -Thomas L. Dybdahl, author of When Innocence is Not Enough The Fear of Too Much Justice is an elegant, meticulous, and inspiring book about the brutal reality of injustices in the American criminal justice system and changes that must be made to save individual lives and our collective humanity. With their searing analyses and palpable compassion, Steve Bright and James Kwak open our minds, touch our hearts, and move us forward. -Janet Dewart Bell, co-editor of Race, Rights, and Redemption and author of Lighting the Fires of Freedom As the face of the Southern Center for Human Rights for more than three decades, iconic civil rights attorney Steve Bright has been waist-deep in the injustice of the criminal justice system since the 1970s. With co-author James Kwak, he powerfully catalogues the system's ills, and offers insightful remedies to help us overcome the fear of too much justice. -Marc Bookman, author of A Descending Spiral Finally, a book that takes Justice Brennan's famous line to its logical conclusions, calling into question every aspect of the way that we criminalize and punish in the United States today.
