PROVIDENCE The state judiciary is inviting Rhode Islanders to ponder what justice looks like to them in a new campaign aimed at sparking what promise to be difficult conversations about the role courts have played in systemic racism.
“Our goal is to make sure our house is in order,” Supreme Court Chief Justice Paul A. Suttell said Wednesday in the blazing heat outside the Rhode Island Public Transit Authority headquarters on Elmwood Avenue.
The campaign, called When Justice Works, launched with the appearance of placards emblazoned on the sides of buses encouraging Rhode Islanders to start thinking – and talking – about what justice means to their lives.

What a relief: Rhode Island transit hub bathrooms reopening
June 23, 2021 GMT
PROVIDENCE, R.I. (AP) To the relief of many, Rhode Island reopened public restrooms Wednesday at the Kennedy Plaza transit hub in Providence, which had been closed since the start of the coronavirus pandemic.
The Rhode Island Public Transit Authority also recently reopened to the general public bathroom facilities at the Newport Transportation and Visitors Center and the Pawtucket Transit Center.
“Reopening public restrooms at three busy transit facilities in our state is a necessary step to address public need as we re-emerge from the pandemic,” Gov. Daniel McKee said in a statement.
