How can everyday people leverage money for social change?  How can people at all financial levels—from low- and middle-income individuals to wealthy people—use tools of power-building and money-moving to support building a more just economy? 

In this practical guidebook,  Jasmine Rashid devotes a chapter to each of eight different ways that everyday people can become “financial activists,” who use their money and who influence money-moving by others to make a difference in the world:

1.     Unpacking our messy relationships with money—individually and collectively.

2.     Banking on ourselves by saving, lending, and borrowing money differently.

3.     Flexing our buying power beyond “conscious consumerism.”

4.     Giving differently by changing our donating rituals to live more generously.

5.     Showing up for one another with enhanced mutual aid networks.

6.     Reshaping our investments by changing where and how we invest and divest money.

7.     Shifting institutional budgets—how ordinary people can have an impact.

8.     Becoming an entrepreneur who develops innovative ways to financially support social change. 

Rashid presents a wealth of creative strategies that people can use to reclaim money as a tool for social good.  She advances a new narrative around money decisions and actions, celebrating experiments to move money differently, highlighting a treasure trove of community stories, and calling in readers to take action with a menu of practical money stories.  The result is a playbook of strategies and daily actions for anyone to become a financial activist.
