Stevenson High School Research Paper

STEVENSON was only interested in attending the Governors’ conference because he did not like the idea of the reestablishment of the BROYLES COMMISSION. It was said that his first task that he wanted to complete was to speak to Hoover in order to convince him to meet with two members from the American Legion, which would include Illinois State Commander Lawrence J. Fenlon. Hoover was able to understand where STEVENSON was coming from he went so far to inform STEVENSON to “beware of amateur Red-hunters, citing several examples of bumbling counter-subversives who had interfered with the Bureau’s sophisticated internal security operations” (53). Many people were lobbying for the BROYLES COMMISSION to be reintroduced, but something more important came up, which was the issue of the investigation into state educational institutions. During the meeting in February of 1951 STEVENSON and many other state governors that

Seventeen year old, Edward Pierce Jr. and best friends, Bobbi Brown and James Farley are nearly done with their last year of school at Pioneer Lake High School. One week before graduation and their descent into the real world, tragedy strikes. James has committed suicide, leaving Edward and Bobbi to pick up the pieces. Could they have prevented their best friend’s death? Are they to blame? Can they handle the loss of a loved one without breaking in half?

Bryan Stevenson was born on November 14, 1959 in Milton, Delaware. His father, Howard Carlton Stevenson, Sr., had grown up in Milton, Delaware as well. His father left the area as a teen because there had been no colored high school nearby (Stevenson, 2014). He later returned with Bryan’s mother, Alice Gertrude Stevenson.

During law school, he got an internship with the Southern Prisoners Defense Committee (Stevenson 5-7), which was inspirational and made law school seem much more relevant and interesting. After he graduated, he “went back to the Deep South to represent the poor, the incarcerated, and the condemned” (Stevenson 17). He was committed to providing social justice for everyone despite the corruption. Throughout his career, he worked with many different types of minorities, all of whom were misjudged and treated harshly by society and the criminal justice system. He represented children, who had grown up in terrible circumstances, and then were prosecuted as adults. He represented women who couldn’t afford access to healthcare, and then got charged with murder when they miscarried their baby. He also worked with mentally ill people who never got the help that they needed (Stevenson 17). Stevenson realized that mass incarceration is not the right answer. Almost everyone has to capacity to be a functioning member of society if they are given the chance. Locking people up has become the answer for almost any problem a person may have. As a society, we would rather imprison someone than get them the help that they need. Stevenson fought for social justice for these people. He did this work out of compassion, duty, and most importantly,

With Stevenson’s help many young kids, the falsely convicted and the ill were able to receive justice.

To begin, Robert Louis Stevenson was born into a middle class family in Edinburgh, Scotland in 1850. He was the middle child of the family who gained most of his attention through his frequent illness (“Robert”). During the 1800s, a typical means to cure illness was travel, the Stevenson family attempted to cure roberts sickness by traveling Europe (“Timeline”). These European adventures by the Stevensons led them to many iconic European cities, from Naples to Genoa and from Rome to Innsbruck.
