Alright, then! Let's get to it! The first book on my reading list is The Color of Wealth: The Story Behind the US Wealth Divide, by Meizhu Lui, Barbara Robles, Betsy Leondar-Wright, Rose Brewer, and Rebecca Adamson, with United for a Fair Economy.
The first thing you should know about me is that I read pretty slowly. I take lots of notes and need to take lots of thinking breaks. Anyway, I just finished Chapter 1, which is titled "Overview: The Roots of the Racial Wealth Divide."

On Worker Co-op Development
I just read this simple but very helpful article titled "Worker Cooperative Development Models and Approaches: A Brief Overview," by Jessica Gordon Nembhard, Michael Johnson, Jim Johnson, Len Krimerman, and Ajowa Nzinga Ifateyo.
As someone who has been hanging around the world of cooperatives for a few years, mostly in the developer role, it was helpful to read an article that clearly stated analysis around cooperative development that reflects my own. Specifically, the article talks about supporting co-ops that are "accessible to all populations" and "develop an authentic, organic ownership culture among the worker owners," among other things.
