Thanks for these resource recommendations, Paul!! You chose some good ones.
My husband and I just read "The Pope or the Pol: Whose Vision Shapes Us?" by John Cavanaugh O'Keefe, contrasting Pope St. JP2's vision for the new millennium and Pat Buchanan's, in his book "The Death of the West." Lots of great discussion about Catholic Social Teaching in a very accessible book. We read it out loud together in 2 days. Also, we recommend the Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church, available in physical format or online at the Vatican website for free. It won't have updated teachings from the last 2 popes, I believe? But sure is a great resource to have on hand.
Paul, thanks for the mention. Here is a link to the lectures from my social justice class, for those with too much time on their hands: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAMzpP2o7ecmCMfYiwSGPTHk8a-QSHp_7&si=IlHDzSdG6B1tE4sY
