"Social justice encompasses economic justice."

[mythology]

4. I think historically they have that kind of backwards

I think a growth in economic justice leads to a growth in social justice, unless done in the fashion of Reconstruction with the U.S. army treating the south like an invaded territory.

There is a reason the Civil Rights Movement came after the economic gains of blacks in WWII. It takes money to sustain things like the bus protests. People who are just at a subsistence level rarely successfully protest or revolt. It takes a certain financial stability to have something to risk.

Of course we should work on both, but I think that in general, economic justice will over time lead to social justice. Granted it's slow and hard to come by when dealing with a Republican party who seemingly has a focus on preventing both.
