-====== Solidarity VS. Charity ======
-===== SOLIDARITY: HORIZONTAL; LEVEL FIELD =====
-**Solidarity**: unity or agreement of feeling or action, especially among individuals with a common interest; __mutual__ support within a group
-Respect each person equally. **Solidarity** work assumes that the recipient community is in the best place to determine its own needs, and they have the right to determine how and when and if a service will be provided and by whom.

-==== VS ====
-===== Charity: Vertical. Top to bottom. =====
-**Charity**: the __voluntary__ giving of help, typically in the form of money, to those in need.
-Why should it be voluntary for those with far more than those in a place where we are mutual and equals?
-Something you “give” to those “less fortunate”. Creates an us vs them dynamic. Charity work flows from the premise that the giver has the expertise to decide both what the community needs and how to provide it. In a place of us that are all mutual and equal, there are none who can judge who is more worthy of help, the very thing that helps align you with your best self within community.
