Red Emma's Coffeehouse and Bookstore operates in Baltimore, Maryland as a worker cooperative owned and run by a horizontally structured collective that coordinates a family of projects. Since 2004, it has functioned as a grassroots gathering space focused on autonomy, sustainability, participatory democracy, and solidarity, including self-organized education. The venue combines a cafe and a bookstore and offers ethically sourced food and coffee in a vegetarian, vegan-forward menu. It emphasizes sustainability practices, aiming to minimize waste and maximize recycling and reuse, and maintains a safe, inclusive space free from discrimination. Based in Baltimore, the organization expanded in 2023 with a new location in the Waverly neighborhood, and it supports independent publishing by prioritizing noncorporate presses and distributors.
