What Social Justice Means To Me...
Social justice to me means standing up for what you believe is right and not letting people or things around you strip you of your knowledge and what you know is right. It means not just giving up and letting those with “power” or “authority” take advantage of you. Social justice is a movement that was created from the heart to protect your rights, yourself, and also those around. Take the Civil Rights movement as an example. Community leaders, activist, and members joined together as one to fight for justice for themselves, the people, and things around them. Social justice is when a situation occurs and you have that urge to fight back to those who have tried to make you feel less of a person, or maybe even ignorant to a situation.
