J. Dionne. The author explains how progressive religious leaders are tapping the deep connections between religion and social justice to work on issues like poverty and workers' rights, the environment, health care, pluralism, and human rights.  aDescription based on print version record. 0aUnited StatesxReligion. 0aReligion and culturezUnited States. 7aRELIGION / Sexuality & Gender Studies2bisacsh 4aElectronic books.08iPrint version:aJones, Robert P.
