description: After 267 days as prisoners of the United States legal system, America's most famous jurors were thrilled to walk out into the sunlight of freedom. But within minutes of their release, they were overwhelmed by the blinding glare of white America's fury. Here, at last - in the words of jury foreman Armanda Cooley and fellow jurors Carrie Bess and Marsha-Rubin Jackson - are the answers to the questions that the nation has been asking ever since the controversial verdict that freed O. J. Simpson, the man who many believe got away with murder. The most comprehensive work on the Simpson trial, written from the perspective of the foreman and two fellow jurors, Madam Foreman is more than a recap of ten months of sequestration, it is a social commentary. Powerfully written, this work not only gives astonishing insight into the minds of the people who made the decision to set O. J. Simpson free, but gives voice to three African-American women who, before the trial of the century, had no voice at all.
