The UUA Bookstore Offers Books that Challenge Extreme Inequality

Just as prior generations have led movements from abolition to civil rights and marriage equality, now is the time to challenge the growing injustice of extreme inequality in the United States. At General Assembly this year, Unitarian Universalists adopted "Escalating Inequality" as our Congregational Study Action issue. Your UUA Bookstore has a number of titles to help you explore this important and complex issue.
