Just a thought about Social Justice by Penny M. Closser

In this book, the author presents a compelling argument about the urgent need for educational reform, emphasizing the detrimental effects of maintaining curricula that have not been updated in decades.

This book talks about some of the discrepancies in education between the inner city and suburban public schools. There is a difference in how people are educated between the inner city and the suburban districts. For instance, there is a definite difference in the tax revenue. Generally speaking, in the inner city, not everyone is able to make enough money to feasibly support themselves. In this instance, many of the workers are working minimum wage jobs where they may not work enough hours to be able to pay all of their bills. The taxes in the suburban districts are able to allow the children to learn the updated curriculum and give them the choices for different classes to learn about different subjects.

Just a thought about Social Justice is not just an academic discourse. It is a call to action, urging readers to consider the implications of these disparities on individuals who are often marginalized and overlooked. It challenges the reader to question the status quo and to seek ways to make a difference.

This book is an invaluable resource for those who are interested in understanding the intricacies of social justice. It provides a fresh perspective on the subject, making it an essential read for anyone seeking to broaden their understanding of the world around them.

Whether you are a student, an educator, or simply a curious reader, Just a thought about Social Justice will provide you with a deeper understanding of the complexities of social justice. It will inspire you to think critically about the societal structures that shape our lives and to take action to promote equality and justice.

In a world where social justice issues are increasingly coming to the forefront, Just a Thought About Social Justice is a timely and important read. It is a book that will challenge your perceptions, broaden your understanding, and inspire you to make a difference.

Book Excerpts

I believe I either read about this or saw this on tv. There was a politician who basically limited his food budget just to see what it was like. He limited his food budget to 3 dollars a day. He did this experiment where he limited the amount of money he spent in a day on food. He soon realized that those on food stamps were not able to eat the normal foods he ate in a day. See More

I am pretty sure that the family who is able to afford to spend money at the grocery store knows that kids like to eat. This would ensure that the bigger families would have a bigger budget, instead of the additional 150 dollars per month per child for their grocery bill. It would literally take several hours to look up the sales for the grocery store. Not everyone has the time to look up the sales online or go to the store. Not everyone has the time to be coupon savvy as well. See More

Social Justice needs to be taken a lot more seriously than just saying it. I know it is easier said than done. There is no way to make everyone happy. Until there is something done, nothing will never truly be done. There are too many debates on what should be cut from what should be considered to be benefits that most people enjoy. This can be devastating when the family has been used to getting five to six hundred a month in food stamps on their EBT card. The family may get some stuff they enjoy, but get the stuff they know they will be able to keep for a while. See More
