BUILDING A TRANSITION CITY : THE EWING STREET ECO-VILLAGE COOP PILOTPROJECT BOOKLET
Building a Transition City : The Ewing Street Eco-Village Coop Pilot Project booklet is a joint work of Cooperation Jackson and Advanced Design Studio Program of the Bernard and Anne Spitzer School of Architecture, of the City College of New York (CCNY), of the City University of New York (CUNY), led by Professor Nandini Baghee. This publication is intended to be used primarily as an educational tool about how to collaboratively design and build deeply affordable, ecologically sustainable modular housing, which will enable our organization to fulfill the primary objectives of our Community Land Trust, which are to revitalize and regenerate West Jackson from the inside out to eliminate the threats of gentrification and displacement . The work represents the first stage of our concept design for the Ewing Street Street initiative, conducted primarily by the program anchors of our Community Production Cooperative and the Fannie Lou Hamer Community Land Trust, with the support of the students in the Advanced Design Studio from CCNY in the winter and spring of 2019. We will be using this tool over the course of the next six-months to a year to conduct a thorough process of community designing to develop a final design for the Ewing Street Initiative. Stay tuned!!Read More

BLACK AUGUST RESISTANCE 2020 Black August originated in the California prison system in the 1970's to honor fallen Freedom Fighters Jonathan Jackson, George Jackson, William Christmas, James McClain and Khatari Gaulden. Over the years, Black August incorporated the heroic acts of resistance of Black people in the Western Hemisphere, like the launch of the Haitian revolution in August 1791. Black August is dedicated to fortifying our minds, bodies and spirits in the pursuit of liberation. This entails engaging in joint study, joint exercise, joint fasting, and community sharing. Cooperation Jackson is observing our 5th collective Black August this year. We encourage everyone to join us for these critical events throughout the month of August to commemorate and advance thetradition.
Black August Los Angeles, Community Movement Builders, and Cooperation Jackson are cooperating for Black August Resistance 2020 to provide a revolutionary perspective on the tradition and link it with transformative community organization.
