Economics for Everyone

Economics for Everyone (E4E) is an Olympia, Washington group that seeks to address issues of economic literacy through free educational workshops and presentations relating to current events and ongoing struggles. They create a community learning space through regular public events and discussions, creating a public dialogue on inequality and the crises of capitalism. Issues of specific importance to the group include examinations of power relations under capitalism, which include but are not limited to racism, sexism, heterosexia, and climate change. These examinations are undertaken with the public in order to contribute to the discussion and implementation of a community that better accounts for notions of feminism, racial justice, economic justice, queer liberation, expanding the commons, full immigrant rights, housing justice, access to education for all, production for human need, mutual aid, childcare, meaningful work, global equality, and environmental justice. E4E began as a series of on- and off-site workshops during Occupy Olympia and from this beginning in fall of 2013, their members have grown to include students, professors, community members, radicals, and various organizers. E4E is coordinated by community members and operates independently of any commercial or institutional funding. They have been assisted in their mission to create a community educational space by the existing operations in downtown Olympia. Most of all, E4E relies on the participation of community members who attend their events in the spirit of coming together to learn, critique, and move towards a more equitable future. E4E encourages and relies on the various perspectives of attendees to further the dialogue and seek to create multicultural, intergenerational space where people can come together to learn about and critique capitalism.
