** Leadership
------------------------------------------------------------

This week’s Leadership newsletter delves into how activists and organizers come together to pursue a common goal. First, how can communities build civic trust? A multiyear effort in Akron, OH, has some lessons to share in how public space can be leveraged to support racial equity. Next, youth across the United States are joining forces with lawmakers to propose a Green New Deal for Schools, which calls for updated buildings, buses, and plans to let students learn about what may be the biggest issue of their lives. Then, increasingly, local community groups are assuming quasi-public authority to advance their goals. This “co-governance” approach can be powerful but is not without risk. Finally, do you ever struggle to navigate the power and responsibility that comes with being a manager? Join Jakada Imani and Monna Wong of The Management Center live on October 26 from 2:00 to 3:30 pm (ET) for an essential review of strategies and techniques for effective management in a social change
context.
