Bryan Stevenson Nailed It!

Adrian Alexander 5/10/2110:27 AM

Hi everyone.

If you missed the Feature Address of Picower Institute's symposium on Early Life Stress and Mental Health, you missed a treat.

Bryan Stevenson blew everyone away with his flawless talk on racial injustice and how this has shaped the American judicial system to the devastation of persons, many of whom have suffered childhood and generational trauma.

It was one of the most powerful opening talks of any conference I have ever heard!

We shared excerpts of his talk using Twitter (until his powerful account of a meeting between an elderly black woman and a white man over the history of a lynching victim caused water to well up).

You can read the thread of those excerpts here -
