Summary:
Organized Money by Keith Mestrich and Mark A. Pinsky discusses how progressives can utilize the financial system to support their causes, rather than having it work against them. The authors propose a strategy for creating a progressive financial network to counter conservative economic forces that dominate the current financial landscape. They outline a plan for a $10 trillion progressive financial system that aligns with social and economic justice values. The book is aimed at both non-financial readers and finance leaders, providing insights into building wealth for purposes beyond profit and advocating for a democratized financial system. It is a call to action for progressives to organize their financial resources to influence politics, society, and public policy. Generated by AI.
