The story of a 19th-century Saratoga Springs man kidnapped and sold into slavery re-entered the national consciousness with the 2013 Oscar-winning film 12 Years a Slave. More recently, the legal community created an award to honor the memory of the lawyer who represented that man as he fought to regain his freedom. An Albany County justice recently became the fourth jurist to receive the award at a ceremony in Glens Falls.
