This Reconstructionist curriculum on wealth inequality was written for the movement’s Tikkun Olam commission in the winter of 5777 (2016-2017). It is structured as four 90-minute learning sessions, and contains guidance for adapting its content to different formats and audiences. 

The curriculum can also be downloaded in Word format for ease of editing and reformatting:
