What Is Justice? | Civics Explainers

Explore the meaning of justice and its vital place in our constitutional democracy in this original digital video from GBH Education’s Civics Explainers. Learn how the Framers conceived of justice, influenced by their historical context, and how they embedded this principle in the founding documents: the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. Students will deepen their understanding of this complex principle through a real-world example and reflect on the extent to which the United States should be considered a just society.
