------------------------------------------------------------

This week’s Race + Power Weekly examines the ways states and organizations are fighting back against the rise of anti-democratic legislation. First, a new bill in Illinois would stop book banning. Next, the project by Education Week that seeks to track conservative legislation targeting the teaching of critical race theory across the country. Then, in an interview with NPQ, the Management Center CEO Jakada Imani argues that successful DEI initiatives require a deeper conversation about an organization’s purpose and goals. And finally, don’t miss out on NPQ Magazine’s Summer 2023 issue.
