The Future of Our Communities
Mitch Altman

Is there a future for hackerspaces? Is there a future for humanity? If so, the keys lay with community. We need community. Community is hard work. We humans are not necessarily good at it. Mix in the rise of authoritarianism, manipulation through "social" media, bad actors, trolling, the skyrocketing cost of real estate, the ability for lefty-identified people to be mean to each other -- and the result is a serious threat to the future of our communities. Yet, our future depends on our ability to continue. What can we do? What do we want to do?
