Social Justice Pathfinders

In case you need to revisit Father Rivera's Social Justice Project, I've attached the file down below.

All of the books are listed in MLA (7th edition). I've included the call number so you can easily access it in the library.

Remember, you can check out three books at a time, for a two week time. You can always renew if need be.
