This week’s Race + Power newsletter explores the narrative shifts needed to advance racial justice. We feature an article by Maria Samaniego and Rodrigo Dominguez-Villegas on dismantling the noxious myths that undermine racial justice. A second feature by Trevor Smith puts a finer point in proposing that the narrative change should be driven by the subjects of the narrative, in this case, Black boys. A third feature by Tessa Crisman takes a closer look at a particularly noxious myth—the idea that white Western art leaders are the best stewards of art stolen from indigenous cultures and colonized peoples. Finally, we share a trailer to our podcast series Women of Color in Power.
