“Why Is There So Much Economic Inequality?”

This service will introduce the concept of economic inequality and its shocking rise. Morally, it is perplexing given the principles in some of the world’s largest faiths. I will describe some of the forces unleashed by neoliberalism, a form of capitalism, since the 1980s. Ending on a hopeful note, we will bring the issue closer to home by listing several organizations working toward economic justice in Philadelphia.

This is a pre-recorded sermon from First Unitarian Church, Philadelphia, June 29, 2024. We will gather in-person and on Zoom to watch together!

Dr. Deb Figart is a Professor of Economics, Stockton University.
