North Carolina lawyer Henderson Hill discusses the state's Racial Justice Act, which allowed death row inmates to challenge their sentences by presenting statistical evidence of racial bias in jury selection and sentencing. Hill walks through the court findings that documented such discrimination in specific capital cases, then explains how the legislature repealed the Act shortly after those findings were issued. The interview is part of Stephen Bright's Yale course on capital punishment, race, poverty, and disadvantage, and functions as a case study in how procedural and political responses to proven discrimination can undercut the remedy itself. Hill speaks from direct litigation experience, giving the conversation the texture of a lawyer explaining what happened in the courtroom rather than a general overview of the law.
