This week’s Race + Power newsletter features a compilation of the people and ideas that could truly revolutionize the modern quest for racial equity. We start with an analysis of the phenomenon of white people claiming racial discrimination, and how a failure to nip this in the bud could devastate hopes of socioeconomic justice. Then, we demystify some economic complexities to prove that increased black home ownership takes a combination of strategic vision and intentionality. Next, we trace the incredible story of the Oakland community who resisted displacement by creating a Wakanda-like oasis of mutual support. To round it off, we outline the ways that younger and older generations within the workplace can better manage their differences in order to effectively move racial equity forward.
