The conversation explores everything from exonerations and prosecutorial responsibility to bite mark analysis and other forms of debunked forensic science that nevertheless shaped convictions for decades.Together, Raven and Valena examine the intersection of advocacy, storytelling, and justice — and the responsibility that comes with bringing these deeply human stories to the public forefront.“Manifesting Justice” is available in audiobook, hardcover, and Kindle formats.Advocacy.
