This conference brings together leading scholars, attorneys, and activists to assess the state of U.S. social justice movements. The movements of the 1960s set ambitious agendas for eliminating social inequalities and achieving a just society. Those efforts have continued on many fronts and also have evolved in new directions. However, since the latter 1970s, with the increasing power of conservative and right-wing forces at the national level, social justice movements have shifted to some extent toward a defensive and reactive mode.
