What we believe.
We are social work practitioners and educators who believe that everyone has a right to a remedy when actions have harmed or violated their fundamental rights. Reparatory justice can effectively advance human rights and social, racial, economic, and environmental justice.
The ancient common law has always provided a remedy for the appropriation of labor on one human being by another. This law should be made to apply for the American Negro.
