In her book "The World Will Follow Joy," Alice Walker emphasizes the profound connection between peace and justice, suggesting that true peace arises from addressing injustices within ourselves and in society. This notion implies that peace is not merely the absence of conflict but rather the result of actively pursuing justice and understanding our own inner struggles.

Walker’s perspective invites readers to reflect on how personal and social justice intertwine. By focusing on the self and acknowledging our inner conflicts, we can cultivate a deeper sense of peace that resonates beyond the individual, contributing to a more harmonious world.
