** Race + Power Weekly
------------------------------------------------------------

This week’s Race + Power newsletter examines imbrications of power and value in movements for racial justice. First, from our spring magazine issue, “Going Pro-Black,” a conversation between NPQ Fellow, Shanelle Matthews, and NPQ Editor in Chief, Cyndi Suarez, on the aspirational value and meaning of pro-Blackness for Black liberation movements contending with structural oppression. Next, Lori Lobenstine urges “widespread, ongoing, show-stopping horror” as a social response to the everyday violence of white supremacy. Titilola Harley, Angela N. Romans, and Candace Stanciel call for pro-Black nonprofit measurement and evaluation that centers impacted communities’ perspectives and values in defining successful outcomes. Finally, from the archive, Shanelle Matthews considers the role of experimentation in creating and evaluating the effectiveness of social change.
