#latestactivities Alliance for Justice: Pioneers in upholding justice and equality In the annals of American history, certain organizations stand out as beacons of progress and defenders of justice. Among them, the Alliance for Justice (AFJ) shines brightly, a testament to decades of unwavering commitment to upholding the values of equality, fairness, and constitutional rights. Origins and Mission The seeds of AFJ were sown in the turbulent year of 1971, a time when the "Powell Memo" sounded the alarm on perceived threats to the American economic system. Recognizing the call to arms for the business community to influence the courts, AFJ emerged as a bulwark against the weaponization of justice for corporate interests. Founded in 1979 by the indefatigable attorney and activist Nan Aron, AFJ was a response to the encroaching specter of far-right ideologies threatening to erode decades of hard-won progressive achievements. With a vision of a judiciary that mirrors the diversity of the nation and safeguards the rights of all its citizens, AFJ embarked on a mission to ensure that justice remains blind to influence and privilege.
