About Wealth Is a Mindset. . .Shang Saavedra is the Founder and CEO of Save My Cents, a personal-finance education and coaching platform that focuses on the intersection of mental health and financial wealth. Her ethos is that changing one’s finances isn’t merely about making or saving more money. In her mind, personal finance is personal and thus related to one's upbringing, past experiences, family history, and more. It requires bravely facing the traumas and fears of one's past and tracing how they lead to mindsets grounded in scarcity and insecurity, especially as they relate to the handling of money. Drawing upon scientific research on psychology and neuroscience, as well as many mental health experts, Saavedra has developed a methodology called “Trigger, Action, Reward,” which identifies the root causes of unhealthy money behaviors, provides concrete suggestions on how to break those cycles, and guides readers toward an abundance mindset that leads to financial success and security. Through her online classes and coaching lessons in investing, saving for retirement, debt freedom, and more, she has helped thousands of clients implement the TAR strategy and achieve transformative change in their lives. Wealth Is a Mindset provides practical, concrete applications of Saavedra’s mindset-changing methodology. It is also an empathetic memoir that shows how Saavedra and her husband overcame many of their own emotional challenges to attain financial freedom. Dozens of anecdotes from her clients illustrate how the strategy works in real life. More importantly, it shows that we all are human, our inherent worth going far beyond simply a salary and net worth number. Featuring prescriptive, judgment-free exercises and worksheets to show step by step how to pay down debt, raise income, start a side hustle, save more money, invest for retirement, and build generational wealth, Wealth Is a Mindset will help readers find ways to improve their money and their lives, no matter where they are in their personal money story. Shang Saavedrais the Founder and CEO of Save My Cents, an influential personal-finance website and social-media platform. Saavedra teaches readers the key habits and behaviors needed to become less fearful of money and live life with joy. Saavedra was named one of the Twenty-five Most Influential New Voices of Money by TIME/NextAdvisor in 2022 and is an Expert Reviewer and Contributor at CNET Money. She received her bachelor's degree in economics from Harvard and her MBA from the University of Chicago Booth School of Business. Saavedra and her husband finished saving for their retirement by the age of thirty-one and now live a work-optional life in Southern California with their two boys and two cats.

This mouthy, practical guide from activist, preacher, and Poor People's Campaign organizer Aaron Scott offers ten ways regular people can resist and counter-recruit those who have been seduced by White Christian nationalist ideas.Third Place Books is pleased to welcome church worker, organizer, and leader of the Poor People's Campaign Aaron Scott to our Seward Park store for a discussion of his new book, Bring Back Your People: Ten Ways Regular Folks Can Put a Dent in White Christian Nationalism, a practical guide to resisting, organizing, and holding conversations with anyone who has been misled by White Christian nationalist ideas.

About Bring Back Your People.. . .This mouthy, practical guide from activist, preacher, and Poor People's Campaign organizer Aaron Scott offers ten ways regular people can resist and counter-recruit those who have been seduced by White Christian nationalist ideas. For White folks alarmed by the rise of Christian nationalism comes this mouthy, practical guide to resisting, organizing, and holding conversations with your cousin Randy or anyone else who has been misled by White Christian nationalist ideas. The rise of White Christian nationalism seems impossible to stop. We need a road map to countering recruitment. And we needed it yesterday. Aaron Scott, a second-generation preacher, third-generation organizer, and leader with the Poor People's Campaign, has watched loved ones and peers get recruited into White Christian nationalism. Here, he shares strategies of relationship and conversation for those of us who don't know what to do. And he dishes out harsh words. Sure, you can invite your cousin Randy to the wine-and-cheese reception with your candidate. But Randy's pulling the night shift, and the Proud Boys are more than willing to give him a ride to their barbecue if he can't afford the price of gas. Somebody once hooked Randy with a story about the world, Scott reminds us. That story was false, but it gave Randy meaning and connection. We've got to give him something better to bring him back. Salty, smart, and searing, Bring Back Your People offers ten ways regular-ass folks can draw others toward a better vision of faith, politics, and our common life. It answers questions like: Who are White Christian nationalists targeting? (Hint: most White folks . . . and beyond.) How do I talk to my hairdresser about it? (Carefully.) Why is it gaining steam so fast? (It's not; you're just catching up.) Along the way Scott introduces a counter-history of White people organizing for real justice, and even what that ornery abolitionist John Brown can offer us today. If you're frightened by the way White Christian nationalism mesmerizes so many--grab this lifeline and hang on tight. Aaron Scottis a third-generation organizer, a second-generation preacher, and a dad. He was born and raised in rural Upstate New York, and has lived and worked in the Northwest for the past seventeen years. Aaron holds a masters degree in Biblical Studies from Union Theological Seminary and has been organizing with poor, homeless, and incarcerated people for over twenty years. Aaron has served as the co-founder of Chaplains on the Harbor, on the national steering committee of the Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival, and is currently the Gender Justice Staff Officer for the Presiding Bishop’s Office of The Episcopal Church. He lives in Tacoma. About Third Place Books Founded in 1998 in Lake Forest Park, Washington, Third Place Books is dedicated to the creation of a community around books and the ideas inside them.

Join artist Lucy Kim for a conversation inspired by her exhibition Mutant Optics with law and bioethics scholar Osagie K. Obasogie and dermatology resident physician Linda Oyesiku, moderated by interdisciplinary scholar Temi Odumosu. Sitting at the intersection of visual culture, histories of science, and medical practice, this conversation will offer an interdisciplinary perspective on the social and cultural construction of race and perception. The point of departure for the conversation are Kim’s large-scale prints made from melanin, the same black and brown pigment that plays a key role in the color of human skin, hair, and eyes. The conversation engages Kim’s use of melanin as a framework to untangle the ways human appearance is subject to mutation in the social imagination, including the false myth of racial hierarchies. The speakers will weave together visual artifacts, storytelling, and scholarship in a dynamic conversation that interrogates the social forces that shape knowledge production and illusions of neutrality. About the Speakers Lucy Kim is based in Cambridge, Massachusetts. She received the 2022 Creative Capital Award for her project printing images with bacteria that has been genetically modified to produce melanin. Kim is also a recipient of the 2023 Brother Thomas Fellowship, 2019 Mass Cultural Council Grant, 2017 ICA Boston James and Audrey Foster Prize, 2014 Artadia Award, MacDowell Fellowship, Hermitage Fellowship, and Ellen Battell Stoeckel Fellowship. From 2018 to 2021, she was an artist-in-residence at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. Kim has exhibited her work at the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, MA; the Broad Institute, Cambridge, MA; Institute of Fine Arts at New York University, New York, NY; deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum, Lincoln, MA; Tufts University Art Gallery, Medford, MA; Tang Teaching Museum at Skidmore, Saratoga Springs, NY; Brooklyn Academy of Music, Brooklyn, NY; among others. She teaches at Boston University, where she works with her scientist colleagues to further develop her experimental technique printing with melanin. Osagie K. Obasogie is the Haas Distinguished Chair and Professor of Law at the University of California, Berkeley School of Law with a joint appointment in the Joint Medical Program and School of Public Health. He is the author of Blinded By Sight: Seeing Race Through the Eyes of the Blind (Stanford University Press, 2013), which was awarded the Herbert Jacob Book Prize by the Law & Society Association. He has written essays for the New York Times, the Washington Post, and the Atlantic, and placed scholarly articles with the Harvard Law Review (forthcoming), University of Pennsylvania Law Review, Cornell Law Review, and Virginia Law Review, among others. Obasogie is an elected member of the National Academy of Medicine and has been awarded a Guggenheim Fellowship. His current work examines the role of science, medicine, and medical professionals in hindering the ability to hold police officers accountable when they use excessive force; analyzes the legacy of the American eugenics movement and its contemporary impact on law, science, medicine, and technology; studies how legal doctrine produces police violence; and exposes the often overlooked limitations of DNA databases when they are used in criminal investigations.

Kingfisher'sNettle & Bone, Danielle L. Jensen, Thea Guanzon, Jennifer L. Armentrout, andThe Witch’s Heartby Genevieve Gornichec. In the Finnish wilderness, more than wolves roam the dark forests. For Siiri and Aina, summer’s fading light is a harbinger of unwelcome change. Land-hungry Swedes venture north, threatening the peace; a zealous Christian priest denounces the old ways; and young women have begun to disappear. Siiri vows to protect Aina from danger. But even Siiri cannot stop a death goddess from dragging her friend to Tuonela, the mythical underworld. Determined to save Aina, Siiri braves a dangerous journey north to seek the greatest shaman of legend, the only person to venture to the realm of death and return alive. In Tuonela, the cruel Witch Queen turns Aina’s every waking moment into a living nightmare. But armed with compassion and cleverness, Aina learns the truth of her capture: the king of the underworld himself has plans for her. To return home, Aina must bargain her heart—as Siiri plots a daring rescue of the woman she loves the most.

See Eventbrite's troubleshooting FAQ here. About The Case of the Missing Maid.. . .Chicago, 1898. Rough-around-the-edges Harriet Morrow has long been drawn to the idea of whizzing around the city on her bicycle as a professional detective, solving crimes for a living without having to take a husband. Just twenty-one with a younger brother to support, she seizes the chance when the prestigious Prescott Agency hires her as its first woman operative. The move sparks controversy—with skeptical male colleagues, a high-strung office secretary, and her boss, Mr. Theodore Prescott, all waiting for her to unravel under the pressure . . . Only an hour into the job, Harriet has an assignment: Discover the whereabouts of a missing maid from one of the most extravagant mansions on Prairie Avenue. Owner Pearl Bartlett has a reputation for sending operatives on wild goose chases around her grand estate, but Harriet believes the stunningly beautiful Agnes Wozniak has indeed vanished under mysterious circumstances—possibly a victim of kidnapping, possibly a victim of something worse . . . With Mr. Prescott pushing a hard deadline, Harriet’s burgeoning career depends on working through a labyrinth of eccentric characters and murky motives in a race to discover who made Agnes disappear. When her search leads to Chicago’s Polish community and a new friendship in Agnes’s charming older sister, Barbara, clues scattered across the city slowly reveal just how much depends on Harriet’s inexperienced investigation for answers . . . and the deep danger that awaits once she learns the truth.
