Cultivating Justice
Collette Hillier
Advocate for your rights and participate in your freedoms! In no nonsense language, Cultivating Justice breaks down America's Constitutional rights by telling unforgettable true stories of young people who grew our legal landscape. This book gives practical and legal significance to case examples, inviting people to continue to define justice.
Guided by Lady Justice, who cuts to the truth with her sword, is blindfolded against prejudices, and weighs the inequities in her scales, this book shows us that one voice can make a difference. It provides hope in American jurisprudence instead of despair, empathy instead of anger, and a course of action in place of apathy.
"Succeeds in vividly personalizing the U.S. Constitution. I wish I had this when I was teaching."
-Lisa Ankenbrandt, Retired Educator
"This eye-opening book tells real-life stories of youth fighting for their rights. Read over my school lunch breaks, it helped me realize the power of my own voice."
-Kai Masny, Arroyo Grande High School Student
"...an inspiring discussion of U.S. court cases that everyone should read, especially now. It is a great reminder of how our legal system allows ordinary citizens to challenge power and seek justice and why it is so important that we do so."
-Kathryn Eppright, J.D., Professor, Cal Poly
