LFJ is piloting our Community Justice Sites programming at the SPLC’s Road to 60 Summit in Mississippi. Our Community Justice Sites are Freedom Schools and Citizenship Schools for everyone. When we “learn for justice,” we center learning to inform our action for liberation and justice in our communities. 

Justice. Equity. Diversity. Inclusivity. These are the foundational principles of a thriving, multiracial and inclusive democracy. Such a democracy is essential in building a more just future for all our children. And to build that future, we need inclusive education to develop understanding of these foundational principles.

This election season, we ground ourselves in supporting the work to increase power and capacity for a multiracial, inclusive democracy in the South and across our nation. In our Fall 2023 magazine, Angela Glover Blackwell, founder in residence of PolicyLink, and Margaret Huang, CEO and president of the Southern Poverty Law Center, shared their thoughts on the transformational possibilities of that democracy.

Learning for Justice is a community education program of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) that cultivates and nurtures dialogue, learning, reflection and action from those most proximate to and impacted by injustices in the South. By centering learning to inform action for liberation and justice, LFJ will complement the SPLC’s work to increase power and capacity for multiracial, inclusive democracy.
