The story is set on St. Thomas in the U.S. Virgin Islands in the aftermath of a Category 5 hurricane (Wind speed of 137 knots; 254 km/h; 158 mph). In response to previous devastating storms, St. Thomas has become part of the world cooperative movement with “grassroots consensus politics, direct democracy, and cooperative institutions that make up any good solidarity economy” plus housing, consumer, and producer cooperatives. And it has established a strong AI, known as Common, as a public resource.
