On July 22 I went to Polk County in Florida to help with a session on cooperative economics for a freedom school organized by the Florida Dream Defenders. They are the group that formed after the murder of Trayvon Martin. They held a month long occupation of the Florida legislature building after the punk Zimmerman was acquitted. I arrived there at night and spent all night talking to the young people there about the necessity of creating an economy that meets our needs and restores our dignity. This young man, Phillip Agnew is one of the people i talked to for hours before finally sleeping that night on a church pew. I am proud to see new leaders like this emerging to face the challenges of our times. The struggle continues. And we will win.
