How do we practice cooperation in our daily lives? What histories inform our movement building around cooperative economics and building co-op businesses today? At Seeking Cooperation, Building a Movement, we'll
- explore the history of cooperation in the Black radical tradition including the movement history, politics, and economics of co-ops from the Montgomery Bus Boycott, Fannie Lou Hamer, and more!
- We'll also share personal knowledge, practices, and histories on the ways we demonstrate cooperation so as to create a shared vision for growing the co-op economy today and into the future.
