Bluestockings Cooperative

New York, NY

Bluestockings Cooperative is a worker-owned community space and bookstore guided by the principles of abolition feminism, solidarity, and transformative justice practices. We are queer and trans, people of color, disabled and mad people, sex workers, survivors of sexual violence, and a number of co-conspirators. We channel our community knowledge and values to inform how we move this work together. In order to live our values of equity, we use a consensus-based decision making structure in our day to day operations. In practice that means we use a horizontally-shared decision making model, have transparent financial practices with one another, and establish our own living wages.
