Many of us have been aware of the radical, grassroots community-building experiment taking place in the poorest capital city in the USA: Cooperation Jackson (CJ) of Mississippi. This Friday, the inspiring co-founders of CJ, Kali Akuno and Saki Hall, along with RnB’s own Matt Meyer, co-editor with Kali of the recently released Jackson Rising Redux. will be featured at the main New York book launch, hosted at union hall SEIU 1199. The conversation will detail both the work in Jackson, warts and all, as well as the work needed in our city and region to build a people’s fight-back movement. Bring your questions, ideas, and information about your organizing efforts, as we turn the evening into a major Spring 2024 networking event!

Trumpeter and educator Ahmed Abdullah was born in Harlem in 1947. An important figure in the New York loft jazz movement, in 1972 he formed a group called Abdullah, two years before joining the Sun Ra Arkestra, with whom he pl
