Introduction

SJI and the Portal Project recognize that there are reservoirs of knowledge beyond the academy.

Between 2021 and 2024, we invited over 100 scholars, activists, partners and affiliates to join us in this journey of inquiry, research, debate and reflection. The research centers, institutes, and community based organizations from over 20 states represent a rich and powerful ecosystem of creative and committed people, formidable justice-seeking organizations, and conscientious academic and research institutes and centers.
