Race + Power Weekly

This week’s Race + Power newsletter looks at the unseen knowledge of people of color. We feature an article by Ophelia Akanjo on the under-the-radar giving of Black women. There’s an article on what is being learned from a database mapping street art, the voice of the community, in the wake of George Floyd’s murder. Landfall, a PBS POV documentary, shows us what has been happening in Puerto Rico since Hurricane Maria. Finally, the Knight Foundation has a call for proposals for nonprofits combating disinformation in communities of color.
