Common Read 2020

Get your bookmark ready!
You are invited to join the USJ community for the 2020 Common Read, Just Mercy by Bryan Stevenson.

According to the publisher Random House, “Just Mercy is at once an unforgettable account of an idealistic, gifted young lawyer’s coming of age, a moving window into the lives of those he has defended, and an inspiring argument for compassion in the pursuit of true justice.”
First year students all received a copy of the book this summer, either at the Welcome Parade or via mail.
Faculty, staff and alumni can purchase a copy of the book here. The Pope Pius XII Library has several copies available for loan, either in print or as an E-Book.
The Pope Pius XII Library has created a resource guide to the Common Read. It includes links to books, articles, podcasts and other resources related to the themes of the book.
