Economic Democracy Weekly

This issue marks NPQ’s final weekly economic democracy newsletter. As the late Douglas Adams might say, “So long, and thanks for all the fish.” 

But don’t worry! NPQ will publish just as many economic justice articles online as before. What is happening is that NPQ’s four “justice” newsletters will become a single newsletter called Justice This Week. This newsletter will highlight our best work at the intersection of health, racial, economic, climate, immigration, and LGBTQ+ justice.  

So, what’s on order? We begin with an article by Nyia Hawkins that asks readers to interrogate how they think about money and adjust their assessment of risk to advance economic justice. Next, a related article by Monica Cadena and Ciara Segura discusses how communities of color are increasingly using community ownership of commercial real estate to enhance their wellbeing. We then conclude with two articles on strategy for advancing economic and racial justice: Coniqua Johnson-Reed writes about tapping into Black imagination to reclaim creativity, and Nick Takamine writes about how organizations can change how they plan strategy to advance liberatory visions.
