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

This week in the Race + Power newsletter, we consider the ways communities are literally building power. First, we trace the yearslong journey of the Detroit People’s Food Co-op ([link removed]) from concept to community-owned gathering space. Next, we head to Memphis, TN, where Black residents are restoring the economy by rebuilding cultural spaces ([link removed]) . Then, some faith institutions are turning the challenge of underutilized property into an opportunity to create affordable housing ([link removed]) . Finally, as we head into Native American Heritage Month, get your copy of Invisible No More: Voices from Native America
([link removed]) , a collection of stories by Native American leaders co-produced by First Nations Development Institute and NPQ.
