Listening to Gar Alperovitz on how progressive change happens ties in perfectly with a book I'm reading about "banking politics," which was used by ordinary people in the early 1900s to create substantial progressive change in finace and banking. A new wave of progressive change is needed now. This book, "Money, Power, and the People: The American Struggle to Make Banking Democratic" shows how is was done and has lessons for how it can be done again. We need a revival of banking politics.
