{ since 2003 }
EATING IN PUBLIC was founded in 2003 in Hawai'i by Gaye Chan and Nandita Sharma to implement systems of free anarchist autonomous exchange outside of the State and capitalist regimes. Our ideas are not original. We are simply continuing the work of the 17th century Diggers in remaking the commons. Join us if you want. Or better yet, take our ideas and run with them. As far, smart, and fast as you can.
