This week’s Race + Power newsletter features an article by Cyndi Suarez on a pattern that needs to be brought out of the shadows in racial justice work—leeching. Another by Anastasia Tomkin calls out false allyship, of which leeching is an example. A third by Suarez reminds us of the need to flip the gaze to see and describe hidden power plays. And a final piece by Steve Dubb confirms the leeching pattern with data from the nonprofit media field.
