ANANSI REVOLUTIONARY COLLECTIVE is a Pan-African group of artists distributed across the globe who collaborate on art, knowledge, and organizing. We co-steward a Commons, follow the ANANSI Philosophy, and experiment with collaborative practices toward a participatory governance model.

We are artists, activists, anarchists, inventors, economists, guerrilla theorists, creatives, and collaborators. We are both trans- and anti-disciplinary, stepping with ease between the many worlds we inhabit. Together, we are greater than the sum of our parts.

The ANANSI Revolutionary Collective (ARC000) is pro-Black and Pan-African.

We steward a commons of:

Material resources – money, equipment
Infrastructure – ANANSI Residential Compound, Funkwhale
People-power – time banking, commitment statements
Knowledge – documentation, creative assets

We are the stewards of an emergent ANANSI Philosophy of Black holistic distribution. This grows out of Pan-African interdependence and seeks to disrupt centralization in politics, tech, economics, culture, community, and spirituality.

Our evolving Praxis includes:

We are currently building a Protocol—a participatory governance model based on guidelines, not hierarchy. It currently includes:

Praxis

Our Praxis is how we move—emergent strategies grounded in our philosophy of distribution. We experiment, iterate, document, and share.

Explore our practices:

Protocol

We're building a resilient, heterarchical protocol to govern the Commons and ourselves. This participatory system allows anyone to contribute, propose, and shape our direction.

Read the current guidelines:
