connections and run a Skillshare Series, hosted by The NonProfit

<p>
<b>Socially Responsible Investing</b><br>How do we manage our finances to best sustain ourselves and
support our vision of a more just economy? This is a chance to
learn investment basics and discuss financial management with a
local progressive activist and finance professional. No prior
knowledge expected: we'll start with fundamentals and definitions.
Participants should come away with a more intuitive sense of how to
use investments, and ideas about how to research and choose between
different financial tools without checking your politics at the
door.

<b>Socializing for Justice - <a href="http://www.sojust.org/" target="_blank">www.sojust.org</a></b>
<br>Since 2006, we've been building this great sandbox where we
can bring progressives of all stripes together and try out new
ideas in this "Movement Moment". Spaces like this are crucial as we
start to reframe and build new visions for our movement(s).</p>
<p>With over 1750 members and almost 5 years of creating a diverse
cross-issue community in Boston (95+ events!), Socializing for
Justice is the best place to find the great people, organizations
and community you're looking for while putting the SOCIAL back in
social justice.</p>
<p>
<b>YES, WE MEAN YOU.</b> We've got members of all ages,
races, genders, sexual orientations, levels of activism and
professions. We hope you see someone like yourself and meet someone
you otherwise wouldn't have.</p>
