#cooperationjackson — Public Fediverse posts

You may have heard by now, but our friends at #CooperationJackson just took a body blow: some party or parties unknown stripped the copper wiring from the air conditioning units on their CLT, rendering them useless and hitting CJ with a *$70,000* repair bill.

I know money’s tight for all of us, there’s a whole lot going on just now, and a great many deserving folks in need of aid, but CJ has been an inspiration for so many of us – chuck ‘em a few bucks if you can. cooperationjackson.org

@ausir @LauraleeDukeshire We don't have to go back. We can choose other, better options. It will be hard, very hard, to build them, but lots of people are already doing it.

(Sitting at the auto shop waiting on a tire with a slow leak.) Friends, how about from now on whenever we mention the 7 ICA Cooperative Principles we always point out that there are various versions (#Mondragon, #DisCO, #CooperationJackson) and even cooperatives like #CECOCESOLA that eschew lists in favor of constant dialogue among members...

Co-ops are paths for municipalist transformation - from #Rojava and #Chiapas to Amsterdam's Community Wealth Building; from Catalan #SocialSolidarityEconomy to Nantes en Commun*, #CooperationJackson & #CooperationTown... plus many more.

All these are #MunicipalistMonday featured. (*=coming soon)

Although the stated news hook here is zoning, I suspect that in promoting state preemption against municipal home rule, Britschgi's really a stalking horse for preemption in cases of greater interest to Reason donors -- like Mississippi reining in #CooperationJackson https://ino.to/fiibUMq

#Jackson #Mississippi is in the middle of a crisis and groups like #CooperationJackson are organizing mutual aid in the face of disaster. Please help and support!

From #cooperationjackson. It would be interesting to consider how cooperative/commons tech is relevant to each point:

"The Build and Fight Formula:

-- Mutual Aid

-- Food Sovereignty

-- Cooperative Economics

-- Community Production

-- Self-Defense

-- People’s Assemblies

-- The General Strike

-- Democratize the Economy

-- Dual Power

-- Free the Land"

Good talk that makes me even more curious about what exists on the ground. https://bioneers.org/brandon-king-transition-extraction-regeneration-zstf1911/

Hate to share a FB event here, but it seems worthy. (We really have to get our friends to stop using FB for events.)

We just finished a great discussion of #JacksonRising. Thanks all! @neil will post the notes on Loomio with a link here. We used #Riot.io for chat and etherpad (did not work for one person) and #Zoom for conference calling. Overall we were very impressed by the ambition and thoroughness of the strategy that #CooperationJackson organizers have mapped out.

@mattcropp @GuerillaOntologist Great article - nice to see the #labornotes talk included - I like Akuno's sober approach: "In our case I think we’ve tried to ... [use an “occupy model;” reduce importance of elected officials and build alternatives; and build different relationships between elected officials and movements] and tried to do them all simultaneously and I think we have an uneven record in that regard."
Did I mention the #readinggroup on #cooperationjackson ? ;-)

At the #labornotes conference, Kali Akuno of #CooperationJackson told me they would be happy to join a phone/video conference discussion with us about #JacksonRising. I think we should do this after our first online discussion.
