THE VISION
THE VISION of Insaaf Token is best illustrated by this well articulated quotation by Martin Luther King;
"One day we must come to see that the whole Road is transformed so that men and women will not be constantly beaten and robbed as they make their journey on life's highway. True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar. It comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring".
Justice Goldberg of the US Supreme Court has also said;
“Equal Justice for the Poor, Too Far too often, Money—or the lack of it—can be the deciding factor in the courtroom”
Thurgood Marshall, the US Supreme Court Justice wrote:
"The legal system can force open doors and sometimes even knock down walls, but it cannot build bridges. That job belongs to you and me."
Frederick Douglass, the renowned Abolitionist and Social Reformer wrote;
"Where justice is denied, where poverty is enforced, neither persons nor property will be safe."
And;
Paulo Freire, the Brazilian Educator and Philosopher wrote;
"Washing one's hands of the conflict between the powerful and the powerless means to side with the powerful, not to be neutral."
You see, there are countless such quotations that echo the same themes of systemic justice, equality before the law regardless of economic status, and, the need for transformative rather than merely charitable approaches to addressing injustice’.
They span continents and millennia, yet all speak to the universal human aspiration for justice, dignity, and systemic transformation rather than mere charity.
All these people were amazing human beings who shared their wisdom with us. How many among us have even bothered to take any meaningful action.
We all look at each other to do something but fail to act ourselves.
This is the main reason why humanity collectively has been so indifferent to the most fundamental illness that humanity suffers from.
An EcoSystem for Justice Built On Cardano Blockchain is just what our world needs today.
With an ever increasing wealth divide all across the world, and the proliferation of advanced information manipulation technologies, including deep fakes and automated mass dis-information technologies in the hands of the resourceful, the space for law abiding ordinary citizens is shrinking.
‘Insaaf’ means ‘Justice’ in Arabic and Urdu Languages. We introduce an ecosystem built on Cardano Blockchain and powered by the 'Insaaf Token' designed to facilitate justice to all those who suffer injustice due to corruption, nepotism, intimidation by the rich and powerful for many reasons.
‘Insaaf Tokens’ for Justice can facilitate the process of ‘Justice for All’. This means that in 3rd world countries, where the justice system serves mainly serves the rich and powerful, ordinary citizens and the community can now use modern information technology to counter such injustice.
Blockchain, is a proven technology that has the potential and promise to remove the traditional barriers that prevent the facilitation of justice such as access to funding for litigation and attracting proper media coverage and financing rewards for whistleblowers among other factors.
It is not just the 3rd world alone but many developed countries where litigation costs are high and many worthy cases can’t be pursued by people with nominal means who will benefit from the Blockchain for Justice ecosystem. Crowd funding on Blockchain comes with 100% transparency, privacy and accountability.
This ecosystem will provide the necessary financial and logistics support to the aggrieved so that they are able to defend themselves (as a defendant or a plaintiff) and litigate their claim anywhere in the world!
