This class utilizes economic thinking to illuminate a wide range of topics not typically understood to be economic in nature-from how we choose a mate to why we vote the way we do.

Led by Alan Carter.
Please join Meaningful Movies Bellevue for our screening of Inherent Good, a 60- minute documentary that introduces an increasingly popular grassroots idea: Universal Basic Income (UBI). A vehicle to transform the American economy, UBI has the potential to make our society one that is thriving, sustainable, and centered around the well-being and deservedness of all people. Just imagine what a difference a guaranteed income could make in people’s lives! Inherent Good features comedian and “Liberal Redneck” Trae Crowder as well as former presidential candidate and entrepreneur, Andrew Yang. Please stay for the discussion immediately following the film. “Screening courtesy of BayView Entertainment”

Please join us to discuss No Two Persons by Erica Bauermeister. Alice has always wanted to be a writer. Her talent is innate, but her stories remain safe and detached, until a devastating event breaks her heart open, and she creates a stunning debut novel. Her words, in turn, find their way to readers, from a teenager hiding her homelessness, to a free diver pushing himself beyond endurance, an artist furious at the world around her, a bookseller in search of love, a widower rent by grief. Each one is drawn into Alice’s novel; each one discovers something different that alters their perspective, and presents new pathways forward for their lives. Together, their stories reveal how books can affect us in the most beautiful and unexpected of ways―and how we are all more closely connected to one another than we might think.
