October is to think about:
Social Justice means equal rights, wealth and opportunities for everyone.
Question:
What should we do if we see someone is not being treated in the way that
we would like to be treated?
If we want a fair, compassionate future then we
need to challenge social justice issues such as
racism, poverty, gender discrimination and
climate injustice.
Social justice issues are often connected, so we
need to stand up for everyone, and not just
speak out about the issues that affect us
personally.
We are much more effective at achieving social
justice when we work together as we can learn
from and support each other, understand how
these issues connect, and use our different voices
to help everyone to be heard.
Question:
How can we use our voices to help others to be heard?
Ways of promoting and practice Social Justice
Rebooting social justice through protest. Many people attend protests or marches to speak out about social justice
issues, and use placards (hand-held signs) to share their message.
Design a placard to draw attention to a social justice issue of your choice.
Examples of where social injustice happens:
Climate change
Refugees
Racism
Food poverty
Gender equality
