Help us build the Justice Conversation community by sharing the understanding that Justice is realized through Love. There are many ideas below of ways to participate, but also let us know about yourself and let’s share a community together. Use the contact form at the bottom of the page to reach out.
Readers
- Send us related news articles, (click here for examples)
- Recommend books, fiction or non-fiction, for children or adults (see children’s booklist, see adult booklist)
- Write a book review for us. Tell why you recommend the book and how it relates to concepts of justice, love, restorative justice, collaborative law, or the right to remain human.
- Come across a poignant sentence as you’re reading that seems related to concepts on this site? Send us a quote for our quotes page.
Writers
- Send us your personal narrative of any experience you feel relates to this site. It might be an experience with the justice system, with being the victim of a crime, with trying to bring about a just outcome, with coming to see someone more clearly that had been ignored or condemned, of overcoming or trying to overcome not being seen or heard. The stories we’re looking for are honest about personal difficulties as well as an openness to justice as love. For example, a story could share a challenge that came up in a situation where restorative justice was being attempted. It could be about how a victim comes to forgive their attacker, or it could also be about how someone wants to forgive but cannot. The unifying theme is justice and love, but be honest about ways that can be difficult as well as how it can work.
