Ethical Culture Societies and many other religious groups have a mission of working for social justice. Sometimes the term is defined broadly to include justice for future generations and non-human species—but even then, does it cover everything worth striving for? In this platform, Perry Beider,  president of the Washington Ethical Society, will argue that the ideal society envisioned in Ethical Culture depends critically on social justice, but encompasses other ethical goals as well. Our work for justice may be more coherent, and perhaps even more effective, if we recognize the broader whole of which it is a part.
