No Cream in our Coffee, No Boss in our Workplace
<p>Black Coffee is a worker’s cooperative recently formed with the intention to create a café space & infoshop in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle. The collective is currently laying the groundwork for the business, searching for the perfect space, & discovering new allies in the community.</p> <p>Black Coffee Coop is committed to a non-hierarchical structure of work & a not-for-profit model of commerce. In creating the Black Coffee Cooperative, the individuals that currently comprise it hope to create a number of beneficial tools, for example:</p> <p>> A non-hierarchical workplace, where we have at least greater control of the application of our labor, and the pains of worker-exploitation are reduced.</p> <p>> “Safer-space,” for those who don’t feel safe or welcome in public. This safer-space also extends to those who are concerned about repression of their political organizing efforts.</p> <p>> A new info-shop and mini-library, with a future goal of providing the public with DIY copying/printing services.</p> <p>> Physical space for events, meetings, or just drinking a brew with comrades.</p> <p><br />> Delicious vegetarian & vegan grub + coffee & tea + beer</p>
