In today’s Race + Power newsletter, we look at the redistribution of wealth. First, community ownership of housing can be a powerful anti-displacement strategy. Across the country, housing advocates are organizing to pass enabling legislation. Next, to reclaim our democracy, we need to fight inequality by funding worker organizing. Then, philanthropic institutions that built their wealth on harm have an obligation to engage in reparations and reparative work. Finally, in an interview with NPQ, Dr. Yanique Redwood discusses her recent book, the responses from Black women who relate to dealing with racism at work, and the mental and emotional toll it takes.
