Religion and social justice

Religion and social justice considers whether faith motivates people toward structural change or primarily consoles them within unjust systems, and whether religious language about the poor can translate into actual redistribution of power and resources. History shows religions can incite both liberation movements and oppression; the difference lies not in scripture but in interpretation and who holds power to determine it.
