ICYMI: New Power is a New Politics initiative, focused on recruiting and empowering values-driven individuals from marginalized or underserved communities. “We are really focused on Black and brown candidates running for down-ballot races. We know that there are unique and significant barriers when people of color enter the political arena. Alicia Washkevich
Recently, our very own New Power Director, Devon Myers, spoke to Boston.com about this critical work. You can read more here:
And moreover, we know that there are a lot of community servants that are doing great work, but they don’t have a traditional background, they don’t have the money to have access to those resources to make their campaign competitive when they run for office. So, similar to our parent organization New Politics, our goal is to break down those barriers and provide a pathway.”
Our grassroots supporters power this kind of work — folks like you, directly contributing to create a stronger, more representative democracy. You can support New Power right now with a donation.
