RIP Prof Keith Hart. His work on the informal economy, self learning, corporate capitalism and the human economy had a huge impact on what I do. And his mentor for all of his life's work was CLR James.

LOVE WINS! How many academics can say that their book is being shared and launched by community members? Watch this video to see how a #ROSCA lady is calling my book, her book...*not* the only one doing it.

❤️ This progress is making those invested in maintaining the status quo very upset. Lets go!

Here I am with 3 out of 12 members of the Junta Artist group in Copenhagen. This Junta (a #ROSCA) has been active for 2 years, focused on creating a collective financial system. Junta is the Peruvian word for a ROSCA, and it's occurring below the surface in Denmark to address economic inclusion.

Post now updated with a note at the top, and with a slightly changed headline, because apparently almost every media outlet also may have gotten the story wrong.
