Now Available: This Way Out - a Guide to Starting a Worker Cooperative

Jai Jai Noire's long-awaited This Way Out: a Guide to Starting a Worker Cooperative is out!  The 2-DVD set is available from the Mighty Small Films website for about $30, including shipping.  One of the best parts about the project is that it is made up of interviews with many vibrant worker cooperative owners who are blazing a path with their successful businesses.  The sneak peak promo shows worker-owners from Design Action, Electic Embers, Arizmendi, Heartwood, Box Dog Bikes, Biofuel Oasis, Quilted, Co-Soap, and others.  A project like this only seems to come a long once per decade, so it is worth checking out.  Meanwhile an impressive collection of source videos are available free on Jai Jai's youtube channel.

Joe, please continue updating

Joe, please continue updating AWC. I read all of your entries and post those I find interesting to my Facebook page; they've sparked interest and debate, and have obviously opened more than a few people's minds to possibilities they'd never considered before!
