On the surface, The Wizard of Oz might seem like a simple children’s story, but underneath the fantasy lies a fascinating economic allegory. This session will explore the hidden economic messages within the classic tale, from the symbolism of the yellow brick road to the debate over monetary policy represented by the characters.

What does Dorothy’s journey say about the economy of the time, and how does it still resonate today? This is a fun and insightful look at how one of the most beloved stories of all time is actually a lesson in economics.
