Feeling indignant?
Righteous anger at unfair or undignified treatment. Indignation is the moral immune system rejecting injustice.
The unmet need
Restoration of fairness and dignity; acknowledgment that the treatment was wrong; correction of the injustice.
A question to sit with
What principle of fairness was violated? What action can restore justice or at least assert that this was not acceptable?
What to do right now
State clearly: "This is unfair because..." Demand correction or acknowledgment. Use your indignation to fuel advocacy for fairness, not just complaint.
