Join the team!
We are looking for like-minded people to join our teams.
We need people who believe that a more just future can exist, and we need to work towards it.ā

1. If you join the team we will collectively decide how much of the revenue generated by that book will go to you, every other member of the team, how much will be reinvested into the coop, and how much will be donated. If you work on one or two books and then you decide to stop working with us, you will always receive your share of those books' revenue.
ā
2. After one or two projects, collaborators have the option to become permanent members of the coop.
ā
ā3. Your initial investment will be your work, you do not need to pay cooperative fees upfront. We believe time and talent are the most valuable things we contribute to the projects
ā
4. Once you are part of the team, your vote counts the same as everyone else's vote.
ā
ā5. Responsibilities, working schedules, and timetables are established collectively.

Publishers
Do you have publishing or advertisement experience and want to help us get Activist Books into more children's hands?
The publicist will be in charge of our commercial area, of getting the book to multiple platforms, markets, bookstores, and events, and of the advertisement campaign. You will work to develop one or two different strategies, which you will then present to the team. Everyone will vote to approve or reject your proposals. Once approved, it will be your responsibility to implement your strategy, and you will regularly present updates and performance status to the rest of the team members.
