Abstract
The goal of The Care of Justice is to theorize what role, if any, compassion has in how Americans approach achieving racial justice to support the health and viability of the United States democracy. The project utilizes the Brown v Board of Education Supreme Court decision as a founding ideal and principle of achieving racial justice in the educational structure. Through further analysis, the degree of racial education disparities suggests that the intentions of the Brown v Board of Education decision have in the long term failed due to the political interests that led to the decision. The work of Care of Justice proposes that to ultimately achieve racial justice, compassion must be a part of the political approach of citizens who want a healthy and sustainable democracy.
