Equal Justice Society 25th Anniversary Gala

The Equal Justice Society held its 25th Anniversary Gala at the Palace Hotel in San Francisco on December 5, 2025. Video footage of the gala by Kevin D. Johnson, Jr., NorthStarr Media Group, and edited by Pablo Lago Dantas. It was an incredible evening of reflection - on our 25 years of achievements in harm repair, health and education equity, implicit bias, democracy defense, and protecting DEI - and of sharing our vision for what we plan to accomplish in the future. We were blessed by the presence of our co-founder and past president, Eva Paterson, the driving force and incredible power behind EJS for more than two decades. Congratulations to our Champions of Justice honorees Michael Harris, Professor Kimberly West-Faulcon, and the Civil Rights Enforcement Section of the California Department of Justice. We were inspired by Professor West-Faulcon’s powerful keynote. We're grateful to Pastor Mike McBride for his blessing and applaud our EJS board chair Fernando Gaytan for his opening remarks, and our legal director Mona Tawatao and our board member Don Tamaki for their wonderful introductions of the honorees. The evening, emceed beautifully by Cecilia Phillips, would not have been possible without our sponsors and patrons.
