Tired of struggling in an economic system that leaves creative people on the fringes, the duo weave a different story, both risky and empowering, of self-education and mutual action. Behind the opaque language and defunct diagrams, they find a system flawed by design but ripe for hacking. This is the inspiring story of how they listen and act upon the widespread desire to change the system to meet the needs of many and not just the few. And for those among us brave enough, they show how we can do this too in our own communities one bank job at a time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Chelsea Green Publishing Company\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/30\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781603589697\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 224\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.40h x 5.40w x 0.70d","brand":"Hilary Powell, Daniel Edelstyn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36661544419484,"sku":"9781603589697","price":16.96,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_c2cb62ab-464b-4461-881b-d9caf1c3dfe5.jpg?v=1603899703","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/bank-job-9781603589697","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
