** Race + Power Weekly
------------------------------------------------------------

In today’s Race + Power newsletter, we look at the importance and innovation of Black culture and community. First, over 20 states across the country have passed CROWN Act legislation—but continued instances of hair discrimination show why this legislation is necessary ([link removed]) . Next, arts and cultural organizing is intimately linked to community building—supporting Black artists ([link removed]) must be at the center of efforts to support thriving Black communities. Then, in Boston, groups with deep roots in Black community organizing are developing a new model for economic development ([link removed]) . Finally, this is your last chance to register for today’s free webinar on Black and White women archetypes
([link removed]) .
