** Economic Democracy Weekly
------------------------------------------------------------

For today’s Economic Democracy Weekly, the first of 2025, we begin with a set of articles that highlight advocates’ efforts to create publicly owned banks to advance economic justice and support local community economic development. First, from New York state ([link removed]) , a campaign in Rochester gains momentum. Next, from California ([link removed]) , an account of how a century-old public bank in North Dakota has inspired public banking campaigns across the Golden State. This is followed by an article from the East Bay ([link removed]) (near San Francisco) that offers a step-by-step guide on how your community can create a bank of your own. Lastly, from a webinar last fall, a speaker explains the value to communities of experimentation to get
liberatory finance ([link removed]) structures right.
