Course Description
Overview
Explore a bold vision for America's economic future in this thought-provoking book talk featuring Natalie Foster, co-founder of the Economic Security Project and senior fellow at the Aspen Institute's Future of Work Initiative. Delve into Foster's debut book, "The Guarantee: Inside the Fight for America's Next Economy," which challenges the traditional trickle-down approach and proposes a new economic framework built from the bottom up. Examine real-life experiences, collaborations with prominent activists and thinkers, and compelling narratives that question why government-backed guarantees are provided to the private sector but not to individuals. Gain insights into a potential 21st Century New Deal that guarantees housing, health care, higher education, dignified work, family care, and opportunities for generational wealth.
