About a decade ago, there were more than 50 #BlackOwned banks and credit unions - As of 2018, how many are left?

@Institute_coop Thank you so much! We’re actually not the ‘first’ (a Coop way back called The East in Bed-Stuy paved the way) but we’re currently the only coop of our kind that exists right now in NYC 🔥🥦🥕✊🏾🔥

In my latest column, I wrote about how @CBFoodCoop builds upon a long history of Black cooperative economics to fight gentrification in Central Brooklyn, and how alt economics are super queer.

To reclaim their culture and their health, the Hopi, like many Native people across North America, are now working to break the colonization of their diets and they view food sovereignty as vital to that process. https://t.co/l1zMlSwydr @lily7qi
