Welcome to r/SocJus!

This is a community to promote social justice topics and activities, with an eye toward a positive and solutions-oriented approach to education, awareness-raising, and activism. Encouraged topics include but are not limited to issues of race, gender/sexuality, disability, workers' rights, economics, government, politics, and environmental justice.

Our mandate is to encourage constructive discourse and collaboration on social justice initiatives by rising above the petty name-calling and tribalism that so often characterizes this discussion on the web.

Ground Rules

r/SocJus is a space for constructive discussion of social justice issues. Moderators reserve complete discretion to maintain a positive atmosphere, including removing comments and submissions, and banning offenders.

The purpose of this community is to promote a positive dialogue about social justice issues. Comments and submissions primarily regarding the anti-social justice movement are not prohibited - but let's try to keep that to a dull roar in favor of focusing on good ideas, people, and works.

Commenting Rules

Slurs and hateful speech are absolutely prohibited, including but not limited to racial bigotry, sexism, ableism, attacks based on sexuality (including sexual experience, orientation, and identity), and uncalled-for personal attacks. We count on our subscribers to report violations of this rule.
Anti-SocJus terms: With rare exceptions, terms like "SJW," "tumblrina," "feminazi," etc. are nearly meaningless at this point, and not really a good look. Comments along those lines are likely to be removed.
Be civil. Disagreements should be handled with respect, cordiality, and a default presumption of good faith. Engage the idea, not the individual, and remember the human. Do not lazily paint all members of any group with the same brush, or engage in petty tribalism.
Do not call other submitters' personal stories of trauma into question. This is a community for support and solutions. Discussing different perspectives is fine, but you should assume good faith and adopt a sympathetic approach when members open up about personal hardships.
Personally identifying information violates reddit rules and may be grounds for a site-wide ban.

Posting Rules

Any article or discussion pertinent to promoting social justice is appropriate for submission.
Content warnings in your titles are encouraged for sensitive topics.
When posting an external article, please prompt the discussion by posting a top-level comment with your perspective/questions for the community/other considerations.
Do not editorialize your submission headline. Generally, articles should be submitted with their original headline. Agenda-pushing submissions may be removed and the poster asked to resubmit.
To help avoid brigading, any links to reddit comments or threads must use the .np domain.
