Social justice to me is ensuring the protection of equal access to liberties, rights, and opportunities to those fortunate, and those less fortunate. To me it’s being able to go places no matter the community and not being judged based upon your ethnicity or social class. Many people have a different perception on the world may look but I truly envision the world being a place for everyone. Typically, the world consist of ideas used to benefit one type of ethnic group but is progressing as the years pass.

Some obstacles we face in trying to acquire social justice is trying to make everyone happy. When a law is made to try to benefit those that have been left out, people who don’t want to have others that look like them have the same rights gets mad in a way. I used this example because many people don’t realize that the way the world is set up is for minorities to fail. With social justice, when you apply it to the structures of society, it helps determine what is just within society's institutions and associations.
My vision on the struggle is to one day overcome it by working together. Throughout my lifetime I wish to see more resources in low income neighborhood, and see more jobs for low income families. Without knowledge how can we be aware and know take caution? Not being able to do more things at school because of lack of funding is a major disadvantage because we can't really can’t experience what other schools in different neighborhoods have access to. My role in the struggle is to be a positive influence on youth in the community. By doing so I will be creating a small community garden. I want to become a social worker because I know there are kids like me in the community that needs guidance. That’s why I will be targeting low income communities because those are where the social justice problems are
