Race + Power Weekly

This week’s Race + Power Weekly focuses on putting liberatory ideals into practice. First, episode one of “Off the Hook,” NPQ’s Edge Studios’ new socials series, is out now—and you can watch it here. Next, from NPQ’s Spring 2023 issue, Minnesota’s first Black community foundation charts a new, Black-led path for philanthropy. Then, a featured conversation between two leaders from NPQ’s Spring 2023 issue about how to move beyond “what is” to embrace “what can be.” Finally, how DEI has developed into an industry that focuses on surface-level, individualistic engagement, and profitability—and how the industry must shift its focus away from profitability to achieve its foundational goals.


Episode One of “Off the Hook” Is Out Now

 
Meet Saphia, a young bell hooks fanatic trying desperately to build a good life in New York City, a place famous for making life unlivable for anyone but the uber wealthy. Constantly immersed in the latest idea she has discovered while reading hooks, Saphia is determined to figure out how to apply these liberatory ideals to her own life. But the one thing she doesn't account for is a little surprise encouragement from the legend herself. Click here to watch episode one of the series. And follow @npquarterly and @offthehookshorts on social to see new episodes of “Off the Hook” as they are released.
