‘The Opposite of Poverty is’ — Bryan Stevenson Quote Tee | Wear Words Black-on-White Literary Tee — Muscle Tank

“The opposite of poverty is not wealth; the opposite of poverty is justice.” Bryan Stevenson wrote this in his 2014 book Just Mercy, drawing on decades at the Equal Justice Initiative defending the condemned and the wrongly convicted. What he watched the poor go without was rarely money so much as fair trials, real representation, equal treatment: poverty, he found, is less an empty wallet than a rigged system, and justice is what would actually close the gap.
