About Equal Justice League

As a lawyer, Bryan Stevenson founded the Equal Justice Initiative to end mass incarceration and excessive punishment in the United States, to challenge racial and economic injustice, to expose racial bias in the criminal justice system.

The EJI launched a project to remember the past and confront the legacy of racial violence, terror and injustice in today’s educational system, justice and policing, housing, as well as health and wealth gap issues.

The Community Remembrance Project creates new spaces and memorials that address —along with documentaries, reports, video and educational resources, The National Memorial for Peace and Justice and The Legacy Museum— the legacy of racial injustice: from enslavement, racial terror lynchings, and segregation, to mass incarceration. These legacies have yet to be confronted.

Remembrance is necessary for healing and reconciliation. It is necessary to build a future rooted in truth and justice.
