Long Answer

1. Stevenson wants to show to the reader exactly “what killing someone actually involves” (90). Readers see, in great detail, what an act of capital punishment entails. Exposing them to these raw and horrifying details is meant to instill a sense of repulsion in the reader. (Chapter 4)

2. Both Stevenson’s clients and Stevenson himself display resilience as they suffer through the trials and tribulations of an unfair, racially biased justice system. Despite bomb threats and other acts of hostility from the surrounding community, Stevenson refuses to shut down his work with the Equal Justice Initiative.
