Representing Justice Contest Winner!
We have a winner for our Representing Justice contest! Congratulations to Cynthia (and her aspiring artist-judge daughter, Ashley) for this winning portrayal of Justice!! Swiftly delivered from the gavel on-high, Justice is found for this particular criminal with what we can only guess will be a hard times sentence to follow. As we celebrate Women’s History Month, be sure to check out Judith Resnik and Dennis Curtis‘s Representing Justice: Invention, Controversy, and Rights in City-States and Democratic Courtrooms for the history of the feminized Lady Justice and how various images of justice have contributed to our understanding of modern democracy.
