Today’s Economic Democracy Weekly asks us to both recognize existing barriers to economic justice and find ways to transcend them. Our first article covers a recent gathering of leaders of color, who are redefining the field of community economic development. Our next article examines the limits of Black capitalism, and why achieving racial and economic justice requires doing far more than increasing the number of Black business owners. A third article looks at conversions of businesses to cooperative ownership—and how movements can support this. Lastly, an article on donor-advised funds highlights new data—and calls for breaking the logjam that keeps these donation vehicles from being held publicly accountable.
