Across the U.S. and around the world, people are rediscovering and reclaiming our commons - those things that belong to all of us - as a means to shape a just and hopeful future for our communities and planet. The Luncheon for Commoners will fill you with stories of inspiration and a hearty discussion of the emerging commons movement. Please join us!
From the publisher:
All That We Share: A Field Guide to the Commons is a wake-up call that will inspire you to see the world in a new way. As soon as you realize that some things belong to everyone—water, for instance, or the Internet or human knowledge—you become a commoner, part of a movement that’s reshaping how we will solve the problems facing us in the twenty-first century. Edited by award-winning journalist Jay Walljasper, All That We Share is an indispensable introduction to fresh ideas that touch all of us.
Brown Bag events are free informal mid-day learning sessions hosted at Tides. Friends, neighbors and colleagues are welcome. Visitors, please sign in at the front desk.
