We are living in challenging and uncertain times, and I know many of us are navigating systems not designed with us in mind. But amidst these challenges, we can also find moments of joy and connection.
I am working on a passion project aimed at exploring how we can find #JusticeThroughJoy inside and outside and around the legal systems and the work we do. This project is designed to uplift our voices, our stories, and our journeys as women of color and gender queer people of color engaged in the legal world.
If you identify as a woman of color or a gender queer person of color and have studied or worked in any capacity related to the law—whether as a law student, volunteer, paralegal, attorney, administrative support, policy analyst, litigator, judge, social worker, legal aid lawyer attorney, public defender, prosecutor, translator or interpreter, or in any other role related to law and policy—I would love for you to be part of this project.
Please consider completing this Justice Through Joy: A Labor of Love (a Survey) to share your experiences. Your input will help shape the project’s understanding of how we navigate legal spaces, find solidarity, and celebrate moments of joy and justice in our work.
Thank you for being part of this journey. Together, we can create a more just and joyful world.
