@RonHantz breaking down Black #coop history from Dr. King to the Poor Peoples Development Foundation's #coop policy campaigns to the chartering of the National Cooperative Bank. @NetworkforDCC
Want a more equitable America? Then invest in leaders & orgs that are making it happen. It starts with building assets, a #creditscore, a #skidder & a plan. Hear @tedpiccolo on @TheNNDF & being the Johnny Appleseed of #CDFIs. #NativeCDFI#RacialEquity

This white privilege and system of dual treatment between races exist at every intersection of America. I witness it everyday in the community development sector, whether its non-profit or for profit.
The incredible show of force that we saw in DC this summer... Where is it? That was nowhere near what we are seeing happen today as lawmakers in both chambers are in lockdown and unable to continue their duties while violent protestors storm the Capitol.
The whole purpose of a cooperative is to move away from the traditional structure; it creates an alternative economic economy that is more just and equitable.
