As deputy director of the Southern Center for Human Rights and head of its Impact Litigation Unit, Atteeyah Hollie ’10 leads transformative legal work across Georgia: challenging inhumane prison conditions, working to end extreme sentencing, and defending the right to counsel. Hollie returns to the Clinical Program at UC Berkeley Law annually to speak to students in the Death Penalty Clinic, sharing lessons from the frontlines and inspiring the next generation of social justice advocates. She has a deep gratitude for the place that shaped her into the lawyer and leader she is today. “Clinics give you a grounding in the real impact of the law — on people’s lives — and they give you the tools to make a difference. Not just to build skills, but to advance the work.” Find the full story at the link in our bio. #UCBerkeleyLaw #BerkeleyLawClinics #DeathPenaltyClinic #HumanRights #AlumniSpotlight
