Social Justice Book Club
Read. Reflect. Reimagine.
​
The Wedgewood Social Justice Book Club is a welcoming and inclusive space where readers come together to explore books that challenge, inspire, and connect us more deeply to the work of justice and compassion.
Through biweekly discussions on Zoom, we examine stories and ideas that shed light on issues of faith, identity, activism, and equity. Each meeting invites honest reflection, open dialogue, and thoughtful engagement in an environment where every voice matters.
​
Our goal is to build understanding, empathy, and courage through conversation. Whether you are a lifelong reader, new to the study of social justice, or simply seeking meaningful community, you are welcome here.
Selections include memoirs, theology, history, and contemporary social commentary that highlight movements for equality, human rights, and liberation. Past books have explored topics such as racial justice, gender equality, environmental ethics, and the power of storytelling to inspire social change.
Our book club meets throughout the year on Zoom and welcomes both Wedgewood members and non-members. Discussions are facilitated by members and friends of Wedgewood who value curiosity, inclusion, and the pursuit of collective wisdom.
Join the conversation and connect with others who believe that reading can be a form of activism and spiritual growth.
Next Selection: Jesus and the Disinherited by Howard Thurman

We will meet again on Thursday, February 19th. We will continue reading our next book, Jesus and the Disinherited by Howard Thurman. Please read the third chapter before we gather again.
Our book club meets bi-weekly on Zoom, and Wedgewood members and non-members are always welcome. Whether you have joined us before or are thinking about attending for the first time, we look forward to starting the new year in thoughtful, justice-centered community.
​About the Book
"Jesus and the Disinherited" explores Jesus’ teachings through the experience of people living under oppression. Written in 1949 and influential to the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., the book examines how fear, hate, and deception shape marginalized lives and offers love, truth, and spiritual resilience as pathways to dignity, justice, and liberation.
