The Social Justice Game
A Game About Cents & Sensibility
The Social Justice Game: A Game About Cents & Sensibility ®, represents an educational parody of the game Monopoly, and more generally, of capitalism. This educational (or ‘serious’) game helps players experience systemic inequity in an embodied way. Unlike Monopoly, which assumes a level socioeconomic playing field, The Social Justice Game more closely reflects actual inequities under the current American economy. It leverages players' prior experience playing Monopoly by forcing them to pit their own expectations of 'fairness' against the economic pressures they experience in the game.
