Book Recommendations

Assuaging or reconciling, couldn't really decide.

Lately I've been feeling in something of a rut on how to go about participating in much of, well, anything given how things are. You buy this or that, despite knowing workers probably aren't being treated well, but you aren't sure what you could do to help.

This could be anything ranging from histories of organizing to help guide action, contemporary works that better help pointing to what may be done today, or general old meditations on this from throughout time.

One I've already set aside to dig through, despite some misgivings with it from parts I've read (or perhaps it was from another related work by the author, it's been awhile), is Moral Man and Immoral Society by Reinhold Niebuhr.

Another I've kept meaning to finish that somewhat touches on this subject as well was Pragmatism by William James, which I'd easily recommend as remarkably prescient for the time it was written, at least imo.

Thanks for any suggestions, and p.s. the first book I've mentioned may be available through your library if you're curious about it.
