Although I have read dozens of articles on the economic crisis, my brain just didn't absorb the information as it did when I participated in Just Economics’ popular education workshop. The analysis, the role play, the props--Black Box Inc.--all of it was so carefully crafted to bring along everyone with differing levels of knowledge. We need more of this, and fast!

The Just Economics session on the economic meltdown was the highlight of NWFCO's summer conference. It provided a step-by-step analysis of the current economic crisis as well as an opportunity to debate and discuss how specific policies affected low-income communities.

Just Economics has once again put together an accessible, insightful, creative and empowering workshop that uncovers and explains the roots of the economic crisis in the corporate-controlled deregulated financial system. It helps to demystify what's happening, cuts through the confusing jargon and gives working people tools to understand how the system has victimized them, which is the starting point for doing something about it. Unions should offer this workshop to their leaders, staff and members.
