Mutual aid and community support play crucial roles in empowering entrepreneurs to build anticapitalist businesses that challenge traditional profit-driven models. By embracing these principles, entrepreneurs can foster a more equitable and socially responsible business environment that prioritizes collective well-being over only focusing on individualistic gains.

Calling up Justice member Jesenia @NeuroSpicyNetworking was featured on Beyond Deconstructing Podcast. In this episode of Beyond Deconstructing, host Tierra had an electrifying conversation with Jesenia, founder of the NeuroSpicy Networking and One Free Community. We dive into how intersectionality plays a role in how often women of color are not seen or represented in the conversation about autism. We also explain how the colonial mindset and all of it’s children (the ISMs – racism, sexism, capitalism, ableism, etc.) impact all of us, but especially the most marginalized among us.
Barter Up and One Free Community (OFC) join forces to challenge capitalism’s impact on community support, fostering innovative spaces for meaningful exchanges and mutual aid. Driven by frustration with consumerism, Barter Up created events where goods and services are traded through donations or a “pay what you can” model. Collaborating with OFC, they exemplify the power of united communities, exchanging insights and inspiring positive change while magnifying the impact of mutual aid groups for social justice.
One Free Community App has played a significant role in making this a reality. Through this app, everyone has access to supportive communities and resources, and society has become more inclusive, with greater acceptance and support for neurodiversity. Mutual aid has become an expected part of society, and people find joy and hope in helping others. The One Free Community App has transformed the way people think about community, support, and inclusivity, and has shown us that a better world is not just a dream, it is within our reach.
Both bartering and mutual aid have their advantages and disadvantages. Bartering can be useful in situations where cash is scarce, and can help build relationships between people in the community. However, it can also be difficult to organize and sustain over the long term.
Mutual aid, on the other hand, is based on the principle of solidarity and can help build community resilience. However, it can also be difficult to organize and coordinate, especially if there are many people involved.
Ultimately, the choice between bartering and mutual aid will depend on the needs and circumstances of your community. It may be that a combination of both is the best approach, as each has its own strengths and weaknesses.
