On January 31st, 2025 Derrick Broze spoke at The People's Reset as part of the theme Agorism and Parallel Networks.

In his 2017 book Manifesto of the Free Humans, Derrick Broze wrote about his ideal stateless society living in line with individual liberty, permaculture principles, and mindfulness. He called this vision, The Conscious Agora.

In 2020, Derrick and his partner Miriam Gomez moved to Mexico in search of land to steward and make the home of TCA. Starting in September 2020, Derrick and Miriam began recruiting and vetting new potential community members. They found a core group to be the founders of TCA and focused on the creation of their decision making agreements, conflict resolution, entry/exit process, and much more. Now they are in the final stages of choosing members and beginning to build in 2025. In this talk Derrick describes the trials and tribulations of organizing a parallel community in Mexico.

On January 31st, 2025 Etienne de la Boetie² ](https://thegreaterreset.org/speakers/ruben-luengas/)[spoke at The People's Reset as part of the theme Agorism and Parallel Networks. He spoke about how Voluntaryism and the free market provide public goods for free without the waste, fraud, abuse and extortion.

Mandatory “government” schools and monopoly media/academia make “government” seem indispensable, but Etienne de la Boetie2, the founder of the Art of Liberty Foundation and author of “Government” – The Biggest Scam in History… Exposed! will make the case that free markets, mutual aid societies, co-ops, insurance companies, non-profits, and real charity can do a better job at providing public services without the waste, fraud, abuse and extortion of monopoly “government.” The political philosophy is called Voluntaryism, and it is the topic of Etienne’s upcoming book: Voluntaryism – How the Only “ISM” Fair for Everyone Leads to Harmony, Prosperity, and Good Karma for All!

Etienne de la Boetie2 is the founder of the Art of Liberty Foundation, the author of “Government” – The Biggest Scam in History… Exposed! and the editor of the Art of Liberty Daily News on Substack and Five Meme Friday, which delivers hard-hitting voluntaryist memes and the best of the alternative media.
