The @guildatl works to preserve #housing affordability & the cultural identity of historically Black neighborhoods through a development model that centers #BIPOC communities that have been disenfranchised. Hear about the history of displacement & what's being done to address it.

Forgot to mention new season of road to repair is out! In this season we talk to practitioners (and elders like Ed) who’re building cooperative ownership structures and an alternative financing ecosystem to support co-ops. #coopsnotcops

"What [distributivite justice] misses is where did the money come from and are the ownership structures legitimate? Productive justice is about giving opportunities for us to do for ourselves."

I was 1 of 288 people that gave public comment to urge @atlcouncil to vote no on allocating $33.5M of public $$ to Cop City. Public comment went on for SEVEN HOURS and not a single person spoke in favor. The people don’t want Cop City, and Cop City will never be built.

We're constantly fighting the institutions and systems we *don't* want to see in the world. Our solidarity economics lab will be a space for workshops, gatherings, political education events, to be in active imagination and practice with ways to build the world we *do* want.
