Today’s Economic Democracy Weekly addresses key challenges in economic justice organizing. First, we feature an article by Astra Taylor and Eleni Schirmer of the Debt Collective that looks at debt, risk, and how debtors can combine to wield economic power. Next, in our series with Prosperity Now on The Promise of Targeted Universalism: Community Leaders Respond, Michael Roberts of First Nations emphasizes the invisibility of Native Americans in philanthropy—and the need to change that. We also feature an Economy Remix article examining donor control of government and how movements can respond. Themes of risk and movement strategy will also be further explored in our upcoming March 10th webinar on Redefining Risk.
