DESCRIPTION:Hosted by Nicola \nntorbett@seminaryofthestreet.org or 510-225-8561\n\nThe 
 devastating effects of our current economy are clear, but what would it 
 mean to get serious about doing something different? This experiential, 
 popular-education style class will involve\nl   courageously and 
 compassionately examining our own economic practices and their impacts on 
 ourselves and others\n2   learning about and dreaming up alternatives to 
 corporate capitalism and state-administered socialism\n3   engaging 
 together in experimentation toward alternative practices\nThis is not a 
 distanced, purely academic study of economics but instead one that will ask 
 what love has to do with it. The course will ask that we look honestly at 
 ourselves, share with each other in a safe and compassionate environment, 
 and explore our longings for alternative practices. We will strive to 
 create a judgment-free zone, since we believe that economic practices 
 change as a result of our own longings for community and justice, not as a 
 result of moralistic browbeating.\n \nOur sources of inspiration will 
 include faith traditions, Gandhian economics, solidarity economics, 
 liberation economics from the Black Panthers, and more.\n \nWe will attend 
 to historical injustices that have resulted in inequalities in current 
 economic situations along race, sex, and class lines and consider how these 
 impact our practices.\n\nAt WORSHP House, 1724 Filbert Street, Oakland, CA 
 \n\nTuesdays \nSeptember 6-December 13\n6-8pm\n\n
