A truly just society is one in which all people have the resources to lead secure and fulfilling lives and the histories, cultures and experiences of diverse groups — especially those who have been historically marginalized — are respected.

The goal of social justice, therefore, is to ensure democracy in practice: “To create a society in which everyone has access to the resources and opportunities to develop their full capacities, and everyone is welcome to participate democratically with others to mutually shape social policies and institutions that govern civic life.”

Native American Heritage Month provides an opportunity to celebrate the diversity of Native cultures and communities. To honor Native peoples, we uplift their honest histories, significant contributions and contemporary experiences.
