Today’s Economic Democracy Weekly highlights a few of the many ways people organize to advance economic justice. First, from Chicago, an account of how residents organized to stop a megaproject (and freed up resources to meet community needs). Next, from Mexico, how an Indigenous movement that rose to oppose the NAFTA trade agreement 30 years ago supports Indigenous sovereignty today. That’s followed by a clip from our October webinar about the community power that comes with resident-owned mobile home park cooperatives. Lastly, we offer a webinar conversation that centers on how to liberate finance to meet community needs.
