"Until the great mass of the people shall be filled with the sense of responsibility for each other's welfare, social justice can never be attained"

- Helen Keller

About this Quote

This quote by Helen Keller talks to the relevance of cumulative responsibility in accomplishing social justice. She suggests that until most of people recognize their obligation to look after and watch out for the well-being of others, social justice will certainly remain out of reach. This indicates that social justice is not something that can be achieved through specific activity alone, but instead requires cumulative initiative as well as a common sense of duty. Keller's words highlight the demand for individuals to find with each other and also identify their shared responsibility to create an extra fair culture. This quote functions as a tip that social justice is a collective initiative and that we should all work together to develop a more simply and also fair globe.
