MORAL AGENDA
by the Poor Peoples’ Campaign (June 2020)
is the most complete assessment of social injustice in the United States I have ever seen. Every assertion is backed up by publicly available data. And it includes detailed recommendations (called demands) for taking action. It is 15 pages long, but can be read in an hour. It provides a social justice perspective that brings coherence to all the individual causes we advocate. Click here.
