Reasonable Doubt Review: A Steamy Law Drama with Serious Ethical Questions

Becoming a lawyer in the United States is an exhausting, expensive process, which is one of many reasons people of color have been locked out of the industry for so long now. Roughly 5% of all lawyers, as of statistics gathered in 2020, are Black, and the demographics that are seeing the highest increase in new lawyers are still white men. Women are coming to the field in increasing numbers, but there has been little change in the number of people of color. To progress in a field where not only the numbers are against you as a person of color, but also the ideologies, sometimes it takes some sticky moral decisions to progress further up the ranks. Hulu’s newest streaming release, a legal drama called Reasonable Doubt, showcases one Black woman’s struggles as she navigates the industry in a top position.
