In today’s Economic Democracy Weekly, we feature stories on how organizing advances community wellbeing. First, we begin a four-part series, Defying the Odds: How Southern Workers Organize, with an article highlighting the nationwide importance of worker organizing in the South. Next, in our latest Truth to Power interview, Eli Feghali and Rachel Plattus, two of the editors of Beautiful Solutions: A Toolbox for Liberation, discuss what a movement-based “politics of yes” can look like. We follow that with an excerpt from Beautiful Solutions on limited equity housing cooperatives. Finally, join us on March 27 at 2:00 pm ET for a timely webinar on how organizations can partner to meet community needs amid an often-hostile external environment. The discussion will examine options ranging from program collaborations to full mergers.
