From Generosity to Justice: A New Gospel of Wealth Book Discussion Part One

Wednesday, September 20, 2023, 10:30 AM - 12:00 PM

Join Maryland Philanthropy Network’s evolving  Emergent Philanthropy Roundtable, to discuss Darren Walker’s book, From Generosity to Justice: A New Gospel of Wealth.

This peer discussion will focus on the first two chapters, which include pages 1 - 48. Ideas discussed include: 

  • “Comforting the afflicted and afflicting the comfortable”
  • Systems change and addressing the root causes of inequality
  • The Perspective of Privilege

Bring your questions, your favorite quotes, and a curious attitude. If you're not able to read the book, you are welcome to join the discussion as well. Maryland is home to many local bookstores with this book in stock.

We encourage you to consider supporting our small businesses ahead of this discussion. If you need some ideas of where to look, here are a few: Charm City Books, Greedy Reads, The Ivy Bookshop, and Red Emma’s. You can also support local stores through Bookshop.

This event is free and open to all Maryland Philanthropy Network members.
