Today’s Economic Democracy Weekly highlights a range of movements. We begin with a deep dive on the Debt Collective’s campaign to cancel student debt. Next, the latest entry in our series with Prosperity Now on The Promise of Targeted Universalism: Community Leaders Respond looks at the rising movement for financial sovereignty in Indian Country. A third article looks at places where worker co-ops and unions jointly pursue workplace justice—and the challenges in doing so. We conclude with an article that honors the late Edgar Cahn, who developed “time banking”—a tool that creates a common bank of labor hours, thereby helping build local community economies.
