Shahid Buttar and David Cobb discuss the failures of the Democratic Party. They answer the question - “Now what?” No one is coming to save us.

Our collaborative, free workshop on "Real Solutions to the Systemic Crisis" is out!

The latest data from the Index of Systemic Trends (The Democracy Collaborative, September 2024) confirms what we already know: despite changing political parties and economic cycles, key indicators of American wellbeing have been declining for decades.

But there's hope. Communities across America are already using solidarity economy approaches to create real change. Interventions such as public banking, worker ownership, public production of essentials, and community land stewardship point the way to the systemic change we so desperately need.

Join us for a presentation and discussion of the systemic crisis facing the United States and the solutions offered by solidarity economy approaches and institutions. Featuring speakers from The Democracy Collaborative, Resist & Build, US Solidarity Economy Network, People's Network for Land and Liberation, Co-op Dayton, and California Public Banking Alliance.
