Lady Justice
by Daniel Bergin
For his Illuminating Legacies project, Daniel Bergin explored the Black experience in South Minneapolis neighborhoods through a series of video vignettes. Lady Justice is the second of these vignettes.
Lady Justice profiles Minnesota’s first and second African American female judges. South Minneapolis natives LaJune Thomas Lang and Pamela Alexander shared a neighborhood, a middle school, a library and high school and they shared an unwavering commitment to using the law and the bench to sustain youth and community.
