wherecreditsdue.bsky.social Where Credit’s Due @wherecreditsdue.bsky.social · Oct 3
It is time to tell new stories about (and with) money, ones that reject exclusionary violence and instead celebrate our collective capacities and creative potential, stories with room for everyone. It is time to give credit where credit’s due.
A poster with a rainbow border and text that reads: Tell new stories! The standard (or 'straight') story of money tells us that: • Money is scarce - there is not enough to go round • Responsible budgeting means letting marginalised people suffer (sorry) • An inclusive society is unaffordable - we have to leave some people out We say a better story is possible: • Money has limitless creative potential - we can build a society with space for everyone • Money is queer - we can take all our beautiful difference into account • Money is credit - let's give credit where credit's due Underneath the text are logos for WHERE CREDIT'S DUE, TEESSIDE UNIVERSITY PROUD, the INSTITUTE FOR COLLECTIVE PLACE LEADERSHIP, and MONEY ON THE LEFT

Big thanks to @katefoxwriter75.bsky.social, whose blog is where I first learned about Nick Walker’s work and whose wonderful podcast Neurotypicals Don’t Juggle Chainsaws (co-hosted with Nic King) introduced me to Amy Pearson and Kieran Rose’s research 🙏
