Theo Shaw poses for a photograph outside of the Louisiana State Supreme Court, where he works as a clerk for Chief Justice Bernette Joshua Johnson, in New Orleans, Friday, Nov. 2, 2018.  Shaw was one of six black students arrested in the small Louisiana town of Jena in the beating of a white high school student. Unable to post bond, he spent months behind bars but always maintained his innocence. Shaw eventually made the law his life’s work and has gone on to intern and work at various legal aid groups and graduated from law school this year.  (AP Photo/Gerald Herbert)
