What is a cooperative, and how do they work? In this exciting episode, we’ll hear a young Cuban-American man having a conversation with his Cuban mom about his new job at a company that is a worker-owned cooperative. In this family comedy, we’ll hear about what cooperatives mean to the people who work there -- and see that explaining what you do to your parents, while not always easy, can be worth the effort.
