Nestled between two powerhouse, world-renowned artists and justice advocates—Nikki Giovanni and Jane Elliott—is a compelling two-page literary play. Absent Justice, written by Dr. Dontá McGilvery, co-founder of Sleeveless Acts, is featured in Social Justice in Action: Models for Campus and Community (2024), edited by Dr. Neal Lester, professor and founding director of ASU's Project Humanities.
In the wake of George Floyd’s murder in 2020, Dr. Lester took note of Dr. McGilvery’s short play, originally shared on social media, and invited him to contribute to the forthcoming book. This powerful collection offers both scholarly and practical insights into social justice models actively shaping communities.
To explore Dr. McGilvery’s piece—alongside works from distinguished scholars, artists, and community leaders—pick up a copy of Social Justice in Action: Models for Campus and Community (2024), edited by Dr. Neal Lester.
