Description
The first and only comprehensive resource designed to empower everyday people with insider knowledge on moving money for a more equitable economy.
If you’ve been taught that the world of finance is too complex for your feeble mind to grasp, you’re not alone. And honestly, it’s been constructed to be intentionally exclusionary and mysterious. The Financial Activist Playbook is a one-of-a-kind book written to demystify the financial system and pull back the curtain on the wizards behind the scenes.
Financial activism is described as shifting the flow of money and power to solve social and environmental problems.
Jasmine says it’s “the antidote to a financial system that’s inaccessible, convoluted, and inequality-producing by design. For many of us, discussion of the financial system evokes confusion, frustration, anxiety, and, in the best-case scenario, straight-up boredom.”
This book is an easy-to-understand, digestible, and often funny resource for the average person to learn money-moving strategies such as:
- How to leverage endowments, retirement, and pension funds to sustainably invest in Black and Brown communities
- How to build economic people power through structures like worker-owned cooperatives
- How to vote with your dollars and create “people budgets”
- And more
If I lost you at the start of that list, don’t worry. The Financial Activist Playbook breaks down all of these strategies so that even the most financially inept person can use them with confidence.Jasmine Rashid, who is a young woman of color, has served for five years as director of impact for the Candide Group, which is a leading investment advisor group that “works with families, foundations, and other investors who believe that finance can serve as a tool of empowerment rather than a weapon of extraction.” Previously, Jasmine served as a national organizer with the #FamiliesBelongTogether Coalition, constructed a comprehensive financial activist campaign strategy for the national nonprofit Hip Hop Caucus, and organized the largest non-violent protest in support of racial justice in the history of Farmingdale, NY. Jasmine is also a fellow of The Just Economy Institute.US
