@neil Anyone who has not yet read Jessica Gordon Nembhard's book Collective Courage should do so -- it tellls the story of economic cooperation among African Americans over the course of US history. Those efforts continue. The most prominent example now is Cooperation Jackson, in Mississippi. There is also a history of coop organizing in immigrant communities. So maybe the movement is less white that it appears?
