Making Way for Next-generation Legal Changemakers

When I was young, I thought lawyers were white, old, worked in fancy offices, and did more harm than good to communities of color.

But in order to unleash their social justice power, we must redefine what it means to be a lawyer, and make way for the next generation of legal changemakers.
