The Museum of Social Justice is a museum in Los Angeles. Its exhibitions explore the city's history and social movements through the perspectives of marginalized communities. A permanent exhibition documents Methodist social justice work and outreach in Los Angeles, with images drawn from the Museum's archives. Temporary exhibitions examine past and present social justice activities across diverse ethnic, religious, and racial communities. The Museum also offers public programs and educational and social outreach initiatives. It is housed in the historic La Plaza United Methodist Church, near the Los Angeles Plaza and Olvera Street. Its work includes telling neglected stories of Los Angeles and sharing histories of movements connected to the poor, abolition, women's suffrage, and civil rights.
