 Cooperatives) Consisting of 32 Bay Area Cooperatives.\nJenny Kassan will

 California.  Other speakers TBA \n\nThe SF Bay Area has one of the highest 
 concentrations of worker-owned cooperatives and collectives in the country.

 organizations to contextualize them as part of a larger movement towards 
 truly democratic, horizontally structured autonomy from state or corporate 
 control.  We will hear from historians and seasoned members of local worker 
 owned cooperatives and collectives.  We will also learn practical ins and 
 outs of operating as a collective, including organizational practices and 
 processes, financial planning and legal issues.  \n\nWEDNESDAYS 7-9PM\nCCSF
