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

Under the Trump administration, solidarity becomes an indispensable force for marginalized communities. As policies threaten to erode hard-won rights, grassroots movements and advocacy organizations play a key role in ensuring the bonds of solidarity remain strong during times of political and social upheaval. Today’s Race + Power newsletter explores movement solidarity and societal narratives.

The Latinx immigrant community faces a complex set of challenges—from aggressive enforcement measures to systemic barriers to resources. However, advocates and nonprofit organizations ([link removed]) are stepping up to fill critical gaps and ensure communities are informed of their rights and equipped to resist deportation.

As movements for justice grow, so do the risks they face. Advocates must take proactive steps to safeguard ([link removed]) their groups and members—and building trust within these groups is critical. By connecting struggles across issues like immigration, LGBTQ+ rights, and racial equity, movements foster a broader, more inclusive approach to advocacy. In turn, solidarity itself becomes a protective force.

The narratives we craft can help inspire such unity. Advocates Leah Hunt-Hendrix and Astra Taylor challenge us to think critically about the stories we tell and the status quo they either reinforce or dismantle ([link removed]) —and nonprofit leaders have the unique responsibility of crafting narratives that unite rather than divide.

In the face of these pressing challenges, nonprofits and philanthropic leaders must remain steadfast in defending progress and advancing justice. Join us for a webinar on Thursday, February 20, at 2:00 PM ET, where experts will explore:
* Advocacy strategies to counter threats from executive, judicial, and legislative actions.
* Legal and practical considerations for nonprofit compliance under 501c3 regulations.
* Tools for mobilizing communities and protecting vulnerable populations.

Register here ([link removed]) for more on how to stay prepared and resilient. Together, we can rise to meet the challenges of 2025 and beyond.
