Day of Fighting Injustice - 2024 - Part II

                      Since the creation of this blog in 2010, its counter of visualizations doesn't work and the same is happening with my YouTube channel since its creation in 2020. For no reason,  I'm being  harmed in so many ways and for more than two decades. Why can I not have a YouTube channel and blog with their counter of visualizations working like everyone else? However, now all the world is demanding justice and equality. The Brazilian institutions including from the federal, state and city government must do more to increase political inclusion, fairness, responsiveness to public demands. Once again I'd like to thank everyone doing this worldwide movement stronger than ever, using their time and internet to raise awareness to injustices happening around the world. I'll be forever grateful to those helping with their solidarity. If you want to know my channel, watch my videos, https://youtube.com/@lucianofietto4773?si=kzZQtwV_02bTPVYA. Despite rumours that I wouldn't be a candidate, I'm now a candidate for city councilor and my number is 77650.    This post is a summary of two article. The first was published at https://humanrights.albion.edu/2022/12/20/fighting-injustice-with-human-solidarity/.

                         We live in a world full of injustices. When we encounter them, it can be hard to know how to respond. Injustices comes in many forms, and so there are many ways to fight against it. Sometimes, there are relatively simple steps one can take to fight against injustice, steps that do not take much time. This includes speaking up when you hear a derogatory comment. While this may be simple. it can still be challenging to do and have a powerful impact on others. Sometimes talking to someone about their language is not enough. Not everyone is open to these conversations. And, often the problems goes far beyond bigoted comments. Comments may be joined with harmful actions and even policies. These all contribute to the creation of a culture of injustice. A culture that you very well may be told is impenetrable. You can't listen to the voice telling you change is impossible. Throughout history we have seen the impossible come to pass. We have seen change be implemented. We have seen how one person can spark a movement, and how even the most insurmountable obstacles can be tackled. You can make a difference, and change is possible. So how do you fight for change when you witness an injustice? First, you have to have three things: hope, grit, and joy. Without hope for a better future things will never change. You must advocate knowing that a difference can be made and let that drive you. You must also have grit. Advocacy can be like driving on a long and rocky road scattered with fallen trees and other obstacles. It will not always be easy, and there are sure to be many challenges along the way. So you must be enduring, adaptable, and patient. Third, you have to find joy. When traveling on that long and difficult road it can be hard to find joy in your work, but it is much easier to reach your destination with it. You have to take care of yourself, both physically and mentally, to be able to keep working for change. Looking for and holding on to the joy in your work will help with that, It also can open your mind to new, effective, and creative means to spread your message. Now, given you have hope, grit, and joy, what specific steps can you take to advocate for change?   1) One option is to communicate with decision makers. These are your elected officials and other people in positions of power.   2) Another option is to organize and/or attend a protest, demonstration, or rally. Protests can bring attention to an issue, educate others, and garner support. When organizing a protest, make sure your purpose is clear. You should also generate solidarity and craft a unified and inclusive message.   3) You may also use more creative means to spread your message. They are powerful, and generate empathy.                                                                                                   The fight for justice in the face of injustice is a never-ending battle that require courage, perseverance, and a strong sense of morality. In the context of wrongful convictions, the need for justice is more pressing than ever, as innocent people continue to be imprisoned or even executed due to systemic flaws in the justice systems. In this section, we'll explore the different ways in which individuals and organizations are fighting for justice and discuss the challenges they face in their quest for a more just and fair society. Advocacy and awareness campaigns are crucial tool in the fight for justice. These campaigns aim to raise public awareness about the issue of wrongful convictions, and to mobilize public support to prevent future miscarriages of justice. Legal advocacy and litigation are also important tools in the fight for justice and reform. Lawyers and legal organizations can work to exonerate wrongfully convicted individuals, challenge unjust laws. Activism is also important tool in the fight for justice. Local communities can work together to raise awareness about wrongful convictions, and hold persons accountable for their actions. The fight for justice in the face of injustice requires a multi-faceted approach that involves advocacy and awareness campaign, legal advocacy and litigation, legislative advocacy and activism. By working together and using a variety of tools and strategies, we can create a more just and fair society that values the rights and dignity of all individuals. Activism is important because it empowers individuals and groups to challenge the status quo and bring about change. It is a way for people to use their voice and make their opinions heard. There are many examples of social activism throughout history. One of the most well-known examples is the civil rights movements in the U.S. Advocacy serves as a powerful tool to shed light on the injustices faced by those unlawfully confined. Through  advocacy, individuals can amplify the voices of the victims, raise public awareness, and rally support for their cause. By harnessing the power of advocacy, the plight of those in unlawful confinement can be brought to the forefront, compelling authorities to take action. Fighting for justice isn't easy, especially when it comes to witness tampering. This despicable act can have a significant impact on the outcome of a trial, however, there are ways to combat witness tampering and fight for justice. One way to combat witness tampering is to implement stronger legal protection for witness. This cloud include providing witness with anonymity or protection from retaliation. By making it more difficult for individuals to tamper with witness, we can help ensure that justice is served. Another challenge is the resistance that innocence organizations may face is from the justice system. Prosecutors and others may be resistant to admitting that they made a mistake or engaged in misconduct, and may fight efforts to overturn wrongful convictions. Innocence organizations must be persistent in their efforts.
