Free Wind Original

As of now I am a collective of 1 (one) seeking partnership to tackle this endeavor or look for people who share similar world views in order to organize together. I have some interested people but it is difficult to tell how far they would go with this plan. Different interests draw people in different directions for different reasons. I am glad I have found my path in Ship Repairing. Hopefully, in the future I’ll be able to tell a different story. One of successful organizing.

At the moment I will look for work at an anchorage or at a ship and focus on learning how to sail and get my licenses going. I am also finishing my first book which I will try to use it to gather support for this project.

Wish me luck and stay tuned. My Goal?

Have enough money to buy a 50+ feet sailboat, transform into a traveling Charter and through that infrastructure cross the seas and provide with first contact with Anarchism in those impacted areas. For that I need to find at least an Organizer Ally and support for the community to gather money. Let’s see how that works. The First International Vessel-Shop of Anarcho-Syndicalist Organization.

On the meantime, I will go ahead and finish writing and publishing my book with the same title as this blog and hopefully I’ll get some attention to the novelty approach of water-related-labor-organizing.

Wish me luck and Free Wind for all.

This is the Blog for the Free Wind Collective. This is an Anarchist Collective of Water Related Labor Workers that expands on the Notion of Flexible Organization for Water Related Labor Relations. At the moment we are in an initial phase of development. We are looking for Sailors, Dock Workers, Service Workers and Language Workers to develop projects inside the Collective. We use an approach of 75 - 25, 50/50, 25 - 75 structure of organizing. This is an expression used to indicate that Worker's Associations will need a structure of 75% Wrokers' Cooperative to 25% Free Union, 50WC/50FreeU, 25WC/75FreeU as an indicators that depending on context Workers' Project will need one thing more than other and that may change with time. Right now we are organizing Discord Channels, DIY courses, Flip Boats Cooperatives, and Workers' Port Union Organizing and a book that encompasses these ideas to raise funds for the Collective. We decided on an Anarcho-Syndicalist structure to take on these projects. Stay tuned for more! Free Wind Collective
