World Day of Social Justice was celebrated on 20 February 2021, and this year’s theme was “A Call for Social Justice in the Digital Economy”.

Perhaps the question should be put differently: Why should we care about social justice in South Africa? After all, the concept of justice has been discussed throughout different times and locations using primarily political-philosophy lenses, approaches that often do not speak to each other.

In the words of Marian Wright Edelman, “The challenge of social justice is to evoke a sense of community that we need to make our nation a better place, just as we make it a safer place.”
