Mission and Program Overview

Mission

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 Equal Justice Society is transforming the nation's consciousness on race through law, social science, and the arts.

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.
