Paul Manu On The Cooperative Conference

In 2019, Repaired Nations' 2nd complete year, we hosted monthly bookclubs in East Oakland and Richmond. We participated in the East Oakland Neighborhoods Initiative Planning Process. We hosted 7 cooperative workshops between East Oakland, Richmond, and San Leandro. We took 28 US Black Folks to Ghana for a 2 day conference, where 77 people came both days, and we connected with close to 150 people during our 7 day exchange. As a result of the conference, we are launching the Pan African Solidarity Economy Network. At the end of the year, we began our development arm, Melaphonic LLC, to germinate a Live/Work Cooperative in East Oakland.
