Social Justice Revisited




LET'S REVIEW:

Social justice refers to a political and philosophical theory that focuses on the concept of fairness in relations between individuals in society and equal access to wealth, opportunities, and social privileges.


Right now, we are mainly focused on the fact that social justice favors the white population instead of the black population, even though there are thousands of very wealthy black Americans...

There is an undercurrent that flows through Americans between the wealthy and the not so wealthy....  which again favors the whites and the blacks point to:
  • privilege
  • education
  • healthcare
  • law enforcement
  • living conditions
  • available jobs
BUT....  these bitching blacks do not take into consideration:
  • white senior citizens
  • white handicapped
  • white disabled veterans
  • white christians
  • white jews
  • white heart patients
  • white cancer patients
  • white terminally ill
How do these people fair when it comes to social justice?
Why are we not including them in our bitching?
Is it because they are white?

We all have equal access to wealth...  it is just that some people want to work harder than others...   and, while there is some privilege going on, many wealthy people did it on their own without help from others with discipline and determination...

SOME HAVE THAT PERSONALITY AND OTHERS DON'T...  the government cannot change your personality through legislation and laws...  Only YOU can change YOU...

Think about your own personality the next time you think that it is all about white privilege...

AND, when you have time what about this?
Where's the social justice for all the families whose loved ones have been killed by crime and violence?
Where's the social justice for the victims of mental or physical abuse?
Where's the social justice for the victims of rape?
Where's the social justice for all the students who were bullied by other students in public education?
Where's the social justice for all the down syndrome children who were laughed at?
Where's the social justice for all the unwed mothers?
Where's the social justice for single parents?
Where's the social justice for mothers when husbands won't pay child support?

ARE YOU THE TYPE OF PERSON WHO JUST WANTS SOCIAL JUSTICE FOR THEMSELVES AND THOSE WHO LOOK LIKE YOU AND NO ONE ELSE?
