** Economic Democracy Weekly
------------------------------------------------------------
Welcome to our latest Economic Democracy Weekly. This week, we feature an Economy Remix article that previews a report from Transform Finance, published today, that flips the lens on impact investing—rather than asking how investors can achieve impact, the authors ask how BIPOC communities can leverage impact capital to build community wealth and power. And if communities are going to direct investment, then popular education becomes critically important; Alex Stone relates how a national co-op developer network has retooled its education program to reach more people online amid COVID-19. This week, we also bring you an article on Jim Crow white violence and Black land loss, based on deep genealogical research. We’ve covered Black land loss ([link removed]) and the intersection of race and class ([link removed]) before, but you won’t
want to miss this powerful account; it’s a story that shows how the groundwork for our modern-day inequity was laid. Last but not least is an article looking at recent US Senate hearings on a bill by Bernie Sanders that would raise corporate income tax rates on companies that pay CEOs excessive compensation. For more, read on!
