Progressive Sarasota Past Events

It's time to get to work for 2022 elections - but before that let's get to know each other better, celebrate Spring and the workers that have fought for better working conditions in this country. We'll also be announcing our support for Jen Ahearn-Koch's re-election to the Sarasota City Commission. Jen will be on hand to speak. It's a potluck, so bring a dish to share and your favorite beverage. There is a BBQ if you want to throw something on the grill. Families welcome. There is a playground close to the pavillion. Bring games to play. Plan to stay to enjoy the sunset! |

July - 21st 2020 Cooperativism in the 21st Century
Why explore such an old idea as a new framework for social and economic organization of the 21st century? Because it has proven to be a healthy way to distribute the wealth we generate and to ascertain democratic decision making. Cooperativism is not a monolithic structure, it too adapts and adjusts to new situations, new understandings, and new needs. Effective economic democracy is like art, it requires constant practice and readiness to learn, to creatively adjust and incorporate novelty. Like art, it requires a strong base in the basic techniques, that then permit enticing creativity to flourish. In this session, we will not only review the basic logic of cooperativism, but will also discuss the challenges and ways to overcome them.
