Rise & Write: Facing Injustice – Finding Strength, Action, and Hope
Good morning. Injustice can be one of the most difficult things to witness or experience—whether it’s in society, at work, in relationships, or in personal struggles. Knowing that something is wrong but feeling powerless to change it can leave you frustrated, disheartened, and exhausted. However, even when the road to change is unclear, there are ways to channel your energy, find resilience, and take meaningful steps forward.
Today, let’s explore how to live with the weight of injustice without letting it break your spirit, and how to work toward a better outcome—even in small ways.

Think of a historical or personal example where injustice was overcome. What lessons or inspiration can you draw from it?
🎯 Finding Peace Without Giving Up Hope
