Author Talk and Q&A with Richard Frenkel
2026-06-30 19:00 - 21:00 | UUCGL, 101 Forest Ave, Swampscott, MA, 01907, United States
From UUCGL: What would it take to ensure everyone shares more fairly in America’s growing wealth — especially as automation and AI transform the jobs we rely on?
Join Richard Frenkel, author of Shares in America, as he explores one of the most important economic ideas gaining renewed attention: universal basic income (UBI).
For over a century, automation has steadily reduced the need for human labor, and now AI is beginning to reshape many white‑collar professions as well. Frenkel explains how these shifts have contributed to wage stagnation, rising inequality, and growing insecurity for workers — and why we may be approaching a historic turning point.
Drawing on the surprisingly long, bipartisan history of UBI — supported at different times by leaders as varied as Martin Luther King Jr., Milton Friedman, and today’s tech innovators — Frenkel invites us to imagine how a modest income floor could help people thrive in an economy where productivity grows but paychecks don’t always keep up.
This free event includes a Q&A and community discussion. All are welcome — whether you’re curious about UBI, concerned about the future of work, or simply interested in how economic policy might evolve in the age of AI.
Questions? Please email office@uucgl.org or call 781-595-8836.

Exhibit | Lynn PRIDE Gallery: Authentically YOU

From United Lynn Pride: As part of Pride Month activities, the Lynn Museum & Arts Center (LMAC) along with United Lynn Pride (ULP) have teamed up for their 6th annual Lynn PRIDE gallery show. This gallery show will run from June 26 through October 10 in the Museum building’s second-floor community gallery.

Authentically YOU is a gallery theme that celebrates the full spectrum of queer identity, expression, and becoming. The concept centers on self‑definition, visibility, and the courage it takes to live as your truest self in a world that often demands conformity. It invites artists and viewers alike to step into a space where queerness is not explained or defended — it is lived, felt, and honored.
An opening reception will be held as part of “Final Fridays: Pride Xtravaganza” on June 26 from 5-9pm, more details TBA.

Call for art
Lynn Museum hours:
Wednesday: 3-7 pm (Free Admission)
Thursday & Friday: 11 am – 4 pm
Saturday: 2nd and 4th Saturdays from 10am – 2pm (free admission)

What better inspiration than the beautiful sunsets over Lynn Shore Drive?
