      Future Now 016 — "The Guarantee" author Natalie Foster
      Apr 23 2024
      Natalie Foster, author of "The Guarantee: Inside the Fight for America's Next Economy," is the president and co-founder of the Economic Security Project. She is also an alumna of IFTF's Future for Good Fellows program. Foster is a leading figure in the movement to create a more inclusive, resilient, and dignified economy for all Americans. In this conversation with Marina Gorbis, IFTF's Executive Director, Foster discusses the hard-fought progress being made to establish a new "guarantee economy." This economy ensures that every citizen's basic needs for healthcare, housing, education, income, and more are met as birthrights. We are excited to announce that our listeners can enjoy a 10% discount on Foster's book, "The Guarantee," by using the code GUARANTEED10 at checkout on the Reparations Club website (https://rep.club/discount/GUARANTEED10?redirect=%2Fproducts%2Fthe-guarantee).

      Future Now 015 — "Bootstrapped" author Alissa Quart
      Mar 19 2024
      In this episode, Alissa Quart discusses her latest book, "Bootstrapped: Liberating Ourselves from the American Dream." Quart and host Marina Gorbis take a deep dive into the origins and evolution of the "bootstrapping" myth, revealing the hypocrisies and hidden dependencies that underlie this pervasive narrative. From historical figures like Emerson and Thoreau to modern-day Silicon Valley icons, Quart exposes the cracks in the self-made success story. The conversation also delves into the precarious state of the middle class, the potential of mutualism as an alternative ethos, and the importance of fostering solidarity across diverse occupations in the face of increasing economic insecurity. Join us as we explore the liberating power of debunking toxic myths and envisioning a more interdependent American dream.
