Profile

The Equal Justice Society is transforming the nations consciousness on race through law, social science, and the arts. Our legal strategy aims to broaden conceptions of present-day discrimination to include unconscious and structural bias by using social science, structural analysis, and real-life experience. Currently, EJS targets its advocacy efforts on school discipline, special education, and the school-to-prison pipeline, race-conscious remedies, and inequities in the criminal justice system. EJS also engages the arts and artists in creating work and performances that allow wider audiences to understand social justice issues and struggles.

The Organization has evaluated its current tax positions as of December 31, 2022 and is not aware of any significant uncertain tax positions for which a reserve would be necessary. The Organizations tax returns are generally subject to examination by federal and state taxing authorities for three and four years, respectively, after they are filed.”

IRS990/Desc0Law and Policy: Challenging Obstacles to Equal Opportunity in Law and Policy. We continue to articulate how implicit bias and structural racism operate in our society and why the "intent doctrine" serves as an obstacle to racial justice. We continued to train judges and lawyers in cutting edge theories of discrimination law by convening social scientists and legal scholars in workshops.Over the years, we defended equal opportunity programs in public institutions filing amicus briefs or intervening directly in current litigation.

IRS990/MissionDesc0The Equal Justice Society is transforming the nations consciousness on race through law, social science, and the arts. Our legal strategy aims to broaden conceptions of present-day discrimination to include unconscious and structural bias by using social science, structural analysis, and real-life experience. Currently, EJS targets its advocacy efforts on school discipline, special education, and the school-to-prison pipeline, race-conscious remedies, and inequities in the criminal justice system. EJS also engages the arts and artists in creating work and performances that allow wider audiences to understand social justice issues and struggles.
