This week’s Leadership newsletter delves into strategies for meeting our moment, at a time when our rights and public safety nets are being eroded. First, Connor Gibson follows the money to expose police groups and fossil fuel corporations funding legislative efforts to limit our freedom of speech—especially when speaking out against racial and climate injustice—and how to fight back. Next, Shanelle Matthews proposes that narrative power is needed to protect Black women and girls. We then learn from the story of a racial justice activist who was arrested and nearly deported for exercising her fundamental right to protest. Finally, the NPQ team is expanding: we’re hiring a Digital Director as well as Senior Editors in several social justice fields, all posted here.
