Social Justice Awards 2022 Spring 获奖名单正式揭晓！
Social Justice Awards是由青少年非营利组织Social Justice Watcher (SJW) 所举办的写作、演讲与艺术大赛，旨在通过写作、演讲与艺术创作，引导青少年关注社会不平等现象，促使青年人思考并通过自身行动改变社会。
在前两届大赛中，赛事主题分别为席卷全美的弗洛伊德事件（George Floyd Incident), 以及在COVID-19 疫情期间于全球凸显的亚裔歧视问题（Stop Asian Hate）。我们收到来自中国、新加坡、美国、英国、加拿大、荷兰、瑞士、日本、泰国等地区80多所中学，超过300名学生的参赛作品。多位获奖者被牛津大学、斯坦福大学、芝加哥大学、西北大学、布朗大学、康奈尔大学等世界名校录取。
2022年春季，大赛新增了演讲类别，旨在鼓励青少年发声，表达自己对社会问题的见解。此次大赛，我们邀请了来自斯坦福大学、圣母大学、加州大学伯克利分校、麦克马斯特学院、英国皇家艺术学院、哥伦比亚大学、罗德岛设计与艺术学院的教授、演讲教练、设计师与艺术家担任赛事的最终评审委员。
本次春季赛事，我们吸引了近300位参赛选手，分别来自7个不同国家和地区、76所不同学校。经过紧张激烈的评审，最终结果如下。

Social Justice Awards 2022 Spring
Final Results
Grand Prize
Tianyi Xie YK Pao School
“You did an excellent job describing the diverse manifestations of gender inequality in history and the mechanisms by which such inequalities were constructed as a result of prejudices. In this regard it was quite sharp of you to point out how Roman sculptures reflected the gender biases of their society and how the Romans used those artifacts to perpetuate those biases in the future generations.”

Art

First Prize

Jiaying Fang The Hill School
“This response to the quote ONE IS NOT BORN, BUT RATHER BECOMES, A WOMAN shows a great understanding of the author's intention. The written response really emphasizes on the eagerness of women wanting to gain equal right and the painting really expresses that desperation through the pulling strings and hand movement. I love that the drawing, while depicting the social issue, remains abstracted and not representational. A good piece of art doesn't need all the details and nuances but one piece of gem to draw our eyes onto. ”
Jing Guo
Architectural Designer, Photographer, Pianist, Columbia University
Grace Zhang YK Pao School
"The hand-painting ability is well developed, the composition of the picture is very tense, and the facial annotations express a clear concept. Both paintings have a strong sense of the future, which makes me think about whether it is a real woman or a perfect artifact, which is intriguing."
Simin Qiu
Designer, IF Award winner, 40 under 40 designer 2016, Royal College of Art
Daiwei Wang Xiamen Foreign Language School
"The series of artwork “TOXIC ORANGE” is truly interesting and unique. The artist uses sport news as background to reveal gender inequality in sports field. Each piece is like an absurd story, which criticizes man-made “gender equality” in patriarchal society. Both the content and form of artwork are creative. The composition and the colors of artwork have high artistic quality."
Yi Tong

Speech

First Prize

Sophia Xu Overseas Chinese Academy of Chiway Suzhou
"What makes this a truly excellent speech is the elegance of the argument. It takes a simple fact and connects that fact to a great many issues. There is much to be said for reducing a complex world to a short and powerful argument. The speech is well organized, well research and well delivered. It is an outstanding job of creating an argument that is perfectly suited to the time available."
Richard Lesicko
Director of Forensics, Prof. of Communication
Macalester College

Second Prize

Chou Tzu-Yu Shanghai American School Pudong
"The speech is outstanding on a number of different levels. The speaker’s delivery is exemplary, her message is elegantly phrased, and the speech demonstrates considerable skill is wrestling with a topic that has a high degree of difficulty. She does a fine job of taking a rather complex bit of philosophical wisdom and crafting her insights into a very approachable piece of practical wisdom."
Richard Lesicko
Director of Forensics, Prof. of Communication
Macalester College

Third Prize

Xinyu Cui Canadian International School Kunshan
"The speaker does a fine job of dealing with the time constraints and making sure that she has sufficient time to discuss the idea that social mediais a double-edged sword. She makes use of a wide variety of proofs to establish her position (drawing from her own life, making use of concrete examples) to weave together a powerful piece of analysis."
