In this excerpt, Attorney Ben Crump recounts the atmosphere within the courtroom as he advocates for the Henrietta Lacks family regarding the contentious issue of her 'appropriated' cells.

These cells, famously referred to as HeLa cells, possessed extraordinary properties enabling their indefinite replication. 

They have since played a pivotal role in numerous scientific advancements, contributing to research on the human genome as well as the development of vaccines for diseases like polio.
