DESCRIPTION:The Money Fix: Local Currency Film Screening and Discussion\nSunday, April 
 25th, 6-9pm\nFreedom Archives, 522 Valencia St. SF\n\nJoin us for an 
 exciting evening of inspiring film and discussion with the director of the 
 Money Fix, Alan Rosenblith, and local currency activists about the problems 
 of the current centralized monetary system and new currency solutions 
 proposed in the Bay Area and beyond. Interest in complementary currencies 
 is exploding as the conventional financial system is becoming increasingly 
 manipulated and controlled by and for the benefit of a few large, 
 multinational corporations. The greater Bay Area is now a hotbed for 
 currency projects rising up to challenge this system. Learn how you can get 
 involved in creating a more equitable and sustainable local economy. This 
 event is sponsored by Bay Area Community Exchange as a fundraiser to send 
 Joaquim Melo from Brazil, founder of the most successful currency project 
 to uplift the poor, to present Banco Palmas at the US Social Forum, as well 
 as Mira Luna, the Director of Bay Area Community Exchange, to present 
 Community Currencies 101.\n\nAbout the Money Fix: Money is at the 
 intersection of nearly every aspect of modern life.  Most of us take the 
 monetary system for granted, but it has a profound and largely 
 misunderstood influence on our lives.  The Money Fix is a feature-length 
 documentary exploring our society’s relationship with the almighty 
 dollar. The Money Fix examines economic patterning in both the human and 
 the natural worlds, and through this lens we learn how we can empower 
 ourselves by redesigning the lifeblood of the economy at the community 
 level.  The film documents three types of alternative money systems, all of 
 which help solve economic problems for the communities in which they 
 operate. This film will utterly transform the way you perceive money and 
 economics. See the trailer here:
