INJUSTICE
THROUGH
MY EYES
To me, injustice is what happens when people are harmed, ignored, judged unfairly, denied equal treatment, or protected less because of who they are. Justice means truth, accountability, dignity, and equal protection.
Question what is unfair.
What this project asks
What does injustice look like when it happens in real life?
It can be loud and obvious, or quiet and built into everyday decisions. This site looks at several forms of injustice and the values I believe should replace them.
Equal treatmentThe same basic dignity and protection should apply to everyone.
AccountabilityPower should never place a person or institution above consequences.
A voicePeople who are harmed should be heard instead of dismissed or silenced.
