Systemic oppression conditions us to deny others’ and our own humanity. Many justice-seekers unwittingly perpetuate that dehumanization when they assume they must suffer, punish, or martyr themselves to dismantle oppression.

At Joyous Justice, we're imagining and embodying a different way. Wholeness, love, and thriving are the antidotes to the brokenness in our world in our own lives. Each week, April Baskin–with her friend and colleague, Tracie Guy-Decker, delves into theoretical and practical aspects of the pursuit of justice AND wellness.
