Welcome GIA Readers:

The following is a transcription from a communication sent to us in the year 2065, at a point in the future in which the Solidarity Economy has become the foundation of daily life in the United States. 

It draws on the work of six movement partners featured in this series, imagining how their leadership—rooted in culture, cooperation, and community governance—helped transform our economic system over the decades. 

While told as speculative fiction, the pathways described are real and available to us now. We invite you to read the six successive articles in this edition of the GIA Reader not only as reflections of present-day work, but as building blocks toward a shared, liberated future.
