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

In today’s Economic Democracy Weekly, we look at the arts as a tool of democratic imagination and dive into what a democratic economic justice agenda might look like. To these ends, we begin with two articles on how the arts can contribute to imagining—and then creating—new worlds rooted in economic and social justice. First, Katy Rubin and Liz Morgan write about how Brazilian actor and activist Augusto Boal’s “Theatre of the Oppressed ([link removed]) ” is being used in New York City and elsewhere to advance a politics of liberation. Then, arts advocate Andrew Zitcer outlines how theater, music, and poetry can open up new pathways to social justice ([link removed]) . These stories are followed by two articles that look at what is needed at a policy level. Veteran nonprofit leader Ann Lehman, with her sights set
squarely on 2029, outlines an aspirational “New Fair Deal ([link removed]) .” Meanwhile, longtime peace activist Phyllis Bennis makes the case for why rebuilding civil society requires containing militarism ([link removed]) .
