In today’s Race + Power newsletter, we look at the crisis of civic order, both abroad and in the United States, and what could be done about it. First, the Trump administration has withdrawn from its global health commitments and taken aim at South Africa, adopting the rhetoric of White supremacists. 

Next, the water crisis in Jackson, MS, isn’t just about the lack of access to clean water but is part of a larger set of interconnected injustices, revealing the complexity of environmental racism. 

Then, what could a national refounding that is durable, inclusive, and prosperous look like? To start, we must be a nation that makes economic equity available to all—one where people can thrive. 

Finally, join us on March 27 at 2:00 pm ET to discuss how under-resourced organizations can partner to respond to threats and meet community needs, which is crucial for justice-committed nonprofits.
