“Social Justice refers to a concept in which equity or justice is achieved in every aspect of society rather than in only some aspects or for some people. A world organized around social justice principles affords individuals and groups fair treatment as well as an impartial share or distribution of the advantages and disadvantages within a society.” -Teaching for Diversity and Social Justice, Adams, Bell, Griffin, 2nd ed., Routledge 2007
