How to implement Social Justice in the classroom
        In my eyes, Social Justice is incorporating the real world with your classroom. It is promoting real interaction with people and discussions in order to help a problem. Before this happens, they need to learn how to have an argument which is a statement of facts to solve a problem. There are not many other opportunities where students are able to discuss and persuade in a safe environment outside of the ELA classroom; As an English teacher, it is important that we realize the important task that we are dealt to teach these students. 
        To begin with, students need to be able to discern fact from fiction. This incorporates a lot of research which adds to their skills. Aside from persuasion, it is also vital that we teach student how to listen to one another. This may be purely to notice a mistake in the other person's facts or to notice fault in their conclusion. One step above this, in my opinion, would be actively listening to see if their stance changes. This creates the environment of being co-learners rather than adversaries. You need to foster an environment that is conscience so students will be able to step back and look at a single problem many different ways. Once this community is established, bringing in real life issues that affect the students now would be the next best step. 
         It is vital to remember that the goal is to solve and issue and irradiate any inequality that may exist. By implementing Social Justice, you're not only challenging students to build their arguments and see from multiple points of views, but you're preparing them for a future outside of school. You're teaching them academic and critical skills that are necessary to resolve real differences in the world.
