00:01Tell me everything that happened.
00:06The first time I visited death row, I wasn't expecting to meet somebody the same age as me.
00:10From a neighborhood just like ours. Could have been me, mama.
00:13But what you're doing is gonna make a lot of people upset.
00:17You always taught me to fight for the people who need the help most.
00:21Your life is still meaningful, and I'm gonna do everything possible to keep them from taking it.
00:26You don't know what you're into down here in Alabama?
00:28When you're guilty from the moment you're born.
00:31Guard!
00:32Mr. McMillan.
00:33We done here.
00:35Mr. McMillan, please.
00:40I was just about to give up when I got a call from a Harvard lawyer looking to start a
00:44legal center for inmates on death row.
00:47I was in before he even offered me the job.
00:51You the lawyer?
00:52Yes, ma'am.
00:54Thank you so much for driving all the way out here.
00:56Most lawyers barely make time to call.
00:59I can't believe you talked to all my people and say you're gonna fight for me.
01:03I did.
01:03That mean a lot.
01:05If you go digging in those wounds, you're gonna be making a lot of people very unhappy.
01:11When people care about a thing that much, they'll do anything to get what they want.
01:16When I first learned about all this, it was like looking at a river full of drowning people and not
01:22having any way of helping them.
01:27You ain't quit, miss?
01:29No, sir.
01:33Each of us is more than the worst thing that we've ever done.
01:36That made me who I am.
01:39I know what it's like to be in the shadows.
01:44This is my dad.
01:45He do nothing wrong.
01:48It's never too late for justice.
01:52You're the only one who cared enough to fight for me.
01:57If we can look at ourself closely,
02:01we can change this world for the better.
02:06We all need grace.
02:09We all need mercy.
02:15I got my truth back.
02:16You gave that to me.
02:18Ain't nobody gonna take that from us.
