Adams, Bell and Griffin (2007) define social justice as both a process and a goal. "The goal of social justice education is full and equal participation of all groups in a society that is mutually shaped to
meet their needs. Social justice includes a vision of society that is equitable and all members are
physically and psychologically safe and secure."

Sourcebook. Edited by Maurianne Adams, Lee Anne Bell, and Pat Griffin.
You can’t teach what you don’t know, and you can’t lead where
you won’t go.
