Challenge injustice from "summary" of Across That Bridge by John Lewis
To challenge injustice is to stand up against the wrongs that we see in the world. It is to speak out when we witness discrimination, oppression, or inequality. It is to refuse to accept the status quo when it is built upon a foundation of injustice. Challenging injustice requires courage and conviction. It means being willing to go against the grain, to swim against the current, to be a voice in the wilderness crying out for change. It means being willing to face backlash, criticism, and even danger in the pursuit of what is right. But challenging injustice is not just about speaking out - it is also about taking action. It is about standing up for what we believe in, even when it is difficult or unpopular. It is about using our voices, our votes, our resources, and our influence to effect change in the world around us. To challenge injustice is to be a part of a long and proud tradition of activism and advocacy. It is to follow in the footsteps of those who have come before us - the civil rights leaders, the suffragettes, the freedom fighters - who have fought tirelessly for a more just and equitable society. It is to carry on their legacy and to continue the work that they began. Challenging injustice is not easy, and it is not always comfortable. But it is necessary. It is essential if we are to build a world where all people are treated with dignity and respect, where justice is truly blind, and where equality is not just a lofty ideal, but a lived reality. So let us be brave, let us be bold, and let us stand together in the fight against injustice.
