Social justice is creating a world where everyone is treated equally, where there is no discrimination. Once I started to think about social justice, I realized one huge issue, I didn't know my rights. Knowing our rights allows us to stand up and fight back when we are being treated unfairly. Knowing our rights helps us fight for a world with social justice. I read many stories about students getting into trouble but in the end they were prosecuted unfairly so it was overturned. How are we able to fight back if we do not know what is allowed. If a student gets in to a fight at school and is getting suspended, they must know the process that the school has to go through. The student may feel that they are being treated unfair and are not able to tell their side of the story. However it is very easy for the school to say, you were in a fight now your suspended. Students have the right to due process though. If a student knows this then they are able to fight to tell their side of the story. In order for us to have social justice we need to know what rights we have.
I think that this poster is can be really helpful in improving social justice.
