Race + Power Weekly

In today’s Race + Power newsletter, we look at the ways racial justice shows up across sectors, from politics to healthcare to economics. First, voters in South Carolina push back against an unconstitutional map that can be used in the upcoming election. Next, a maternal health crisis that receives far less attention than it deserves: the perinatal mental health crisis among Black birthing people. Then, an organizational leader makes the case that to realize racial justice, philanthropy must support worker organizing. Finally, the system of susu in Ghana is a powerful practice of women’s collective self-sustainability with potential significance for the broader global economy.
