Leadership Weekly

This week’s Leadership newsletter rounds up a series of illuminating interviews from our latest magazine with leaders across the sector by Cyndi Suarez, NPQ’s Editor in Chief. With Shanelle Matthews, Suarez discusses the ups and downs of being a social movement leader committed to pro-Blackness, and why it requires an attitude of perpetual self-transformation. Next, Suarez, Liz Derias, and Kad Smith have a candid conversation about what leaders seeking to implement pro-Blackness into their organizations can learn from past power-building movements. Isabelle Moses and Suarez examine the importance of listening to Black women for cultivating organizations where all can thrive. Lastly, Dax-Devlon Ross and Suarez meditate on why going pro-Black is today’s cutting-edge approach to liberatory leadership—and what this future holds.
