Human Justice - Paperback

by Human and the Lights (Author)

Human Justice tells the compelling true story of a human rights lawyer's last trial in a 15-year career spent helping people living on the margins enforce civil rights and anti-discrimination laws.

Corporate values, which are only about money and nothing else, played out to their logical extreme in the case, signaling that corporatism is incompatible with a sustainable future for our species and our planet.

"This was my last trial before leaving the law to focus on leading with my heart," writes the author, who wrote the book in the four months between the end of the trial and the tribunal's verdict. "I knew before it was over that this was my last trial, as I didn't want to put another human through the abuse the corporate side piled on my friend and client."

The harmonic divide reverberating in our society is less about blue values versus red values and more about human values versus corporate values-and the corporate side is winning.

Through storytelling that reads like fiction, the author sheds light on a justice system dominated by corporations with an infinite appetite for natural resources and human souls, and calls for reorganizing society around empathy, sustainability, and love. As the author writes, human values must always trump corporate values.

With its timely message of unity and community, Human Justice is a spark igniting a shift in society from corporatism to consciousness.

A candid portrait of a justice system where corporate values reign supreme, Human Justice is a cathartic read for legal practitioners, and a guide for readers interested in how justice really works.
