The Commoner seeks to tap into the deep rooted, communalistic traditions that have defined various human societies for centuries, so that we might find an end to the atomisation of society and reclaim the world that belongs to us. It wishes to fight and alter the mainstream acceptance of capitalist competition, exploitation and misery, and its oppression through class, race, gender and disability. It desires to shelter those who believe in the communal spirit of humanity. Quite simply, it wants to explore what it means to be a commoner.
