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 from concept to community-owned gathering space. Next, we head to Memphis, TN, where Black residents are restoring the economy by rebuilding cultural spaces. Then, some faith institutions are turning the challenge of underutilized property into an opportunity to create affordable housing. Finally, as we head into Native American Heritage Month, get your copy of Invisible No More: Voices from Native America, a collection of stories by Native American leaders co-produced by First Nations Development Institute and NPQ.
