In this week’s Race + Power newsletter, we’re in the neighborhood. First, survivors of violent crime marched last month for the right to heal—for themselves and for those who commit crimes. They advocate that real public safety revolves around support for their communities, not arrests and incarceration. Next, community-centered health education can empower minoritized communities to advocate for their own wellbeing and make a dent in racial health disparities. Then, what’s in a sign? When city officials took down the “Ave of Puerto Rico” street sign in a Brooklyn neighborhood, Puerto Rican residents in a rapidly gentrifying city fought back. Finally, join us for our October 16 webinar on how co-op ownership of mobile home communities can provide more stability in affordable housing.
