A colleague told me about this idea of the “solidarity economy”—community control of work, food, housing, culture—basically anything that people need and that we can share.
Some examples: community land trusts, community gardens, mutual aid, open source software.
Now I see this everywhere. On my street, community-built benches, people giving away plants and fruit, little “take one, leave one” libraries in front of peoples’ homes. Each of these is a kindness, but also a little protest.
