This week’s Race + Power newsletter explores how policy shapes who has access to the fundamental right to a safe place to live. First, as New York City grapples with housing people experiencing homelessness amid an influx of migrants, a decades-old policy supporting people’s right to shelter is under threat. Next, the recent Supreme Court ruling on affirmative action has potential impacts for climate justice: how will localities support vulnerable communities of color without enacting “race-conscious” policy? Then, from the third season of “Off the Hook,” episode four explores how cancel culture forces people to try to say the right thing to everyone. Finally, the fall climate justice edition of the magazine is out now, with powerful visions of how we will create home in the future.
