The panelists were Martin Alvarado (formerly of the Interpreters&#8217; Co-op and now a librarian building co-op resources in the library system), Brel Hutton-Okpalaeke (Freewheel Bikes, which is converting to a worker co-op), Matilde Cachiguango (Roots for Change), and Mariela Quesdad Centeno (Centro Hispano and a contractor for Roots for Change). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All five panelists talked about how they found their way into the world of co-ops, and the personal impact co-ops have had on them. They agreed that worker co-ops are an important way for Madison&#8217;s economy to benefit community members, and in particular, the marginalized and overlooked. They&#8217;re great examples of what co-ops are, and of the kind of thing that Madison needs even more of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The presentation is a little over an hour, and you can find it <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/Kemble4District18\/videos\/420475619249127\">aqu\u00ed<\/a>!
