SOCIAL JUSTICE
Social justice is the view that everyone deserves equal economic, political, and social rights and opportunities. Social justice encompasses economic justice. Social justice is the virtue that guides us in creating those organized human interactions we call institutions.
Social justice is the capacity to manage with others to accomplish ends that benefit the whole community. If people are to live free of state control, they must possess this new virtue. Social Justice is one of America’s excellent skills and, ultimately, the best defense against statism.
The five main social justice principles include access to:
- Resources
- Equity
- Participation
- Diversity
- Human Rights
The 100 Black Men of Las Vegas believe Social Justice promotes fairness and equity across many aspects of society. For example, it promotes equal economic, educational, and workplace opportunities. It is also vital to the safety and security of individuals and communities.
