This commentary responds to Jodi Dean's call to bring back the Communist party and Stephen Healy's call to practice communism as a mode of life, as seen in their exchange at the 2013 Rethinking Marxism International Conference. Employing Gibson-Graham's diverse economies perspective, we reframe communism as abundant and everyday rather than the property of a particular party. Drawing on examples of collective self-provisioning in our activist and research practices, we argue that everyday communist practices are critical for creating a better world in the present as well as for sustaining oppositional struggles for a better future.
