Why Jews Love Justice: Stories of the Criminal Justice System

“I want to be remembered as someone who used whatever talent she had to do her work to very best of her ability. And to help repair tears in her society, to make things a little better through the use of whatever ability she has…” —Ruth Bader Ginsburg. 

In this powerful video, we explore the meaning of justice—through ancient Jewish texts and the lived experiences of two men wrongfully imprisoned for decades.

Exonerees Bilaal Wilson and John “Yahya” Moore, who both spent nearly three decades in prison, share their stories of survival, resilience, and legal battles against a broken criminal justice system. From childhood incarceration to wrongful convictions, these men shine a light on the deep flaws in our courts and the prosecutors who too often seek wins over truth.
