"Sketching Justice" Handbook

"Sketching Justice" Transparencies

Inspired by Jack Matsuoka's stories and sketches he made as a teenager in World War II Japanese American Concentration Camp, 8th grade students tell their stories about social injustices they've experienced, and the social justice they dream they may be able to achieve.

"Sketching Justice" covers the process of youth defining positive social action. It chronicles 8th grade students, who were initially convinced that "justice" equaled "revenge," exploring a new paradigm: that social justice could be a positive, non-violent action.

We will all marvel at the creative solutions of young people, and the challenges they face to clear their minds of the negative and violent role modeling surrounding them.
