We are told stories about our history, about government by the people, about equal opportunity. We are told that America is exceptional. Many merely accept these stories, but others, in advocating for justice and equality, find them lacking credibility when put to the test. The truth is that justice in America is not necessarily for all, that it must be fought for by many, often against strong headwinds.We can fight and fight and fight, or we can give up. Lisa and Adam Burke, after years of struggle, decide to give up. But giving up doesn't mean living with injustice. Escape is an option; the question is, to where? Contrary to the stories we are told, there might be other places where justice, if still imperfect, is possible.
