In this assignment, you will examine the important role of a specific type of group — a social justice organization. Social justice is the belief that all humans should have the same rights and opportunities. Social justice issues are often wide-ranging and diverse, but the main idea is that we all have innate value as human beings, and no person’s value is more or less than anyone else’s. From access to healthcare, goods, services, and opportunities, to safe spaces to live and work, the goals of social justice organizations aim to eliminate discrimination and create an environment where all humans are treated equally.arrow_forward
