Frequently asked questions on the topics of injustice and fairness

Use these quotes to fight injustice of all kinds!

When we observe injustice, we must Do something about it instead of resigning. Sayings such as "that's cruel" or "that's unfair" are of no use to anyone if we do nothing about it ourselves or even remain part of the cause of the injustice for longer. For example, if we are fed up with the fact that the Rainforests cut down and indigenous peoples and thousands of animal species are losing their homes, then above all we should stop eating meat in order to put an end to this injustice. It is important to always understand the connection between our own actions and such problems - and then do better.
