This week’s Leadership newsletter examines the power of visibility for promoting liberatory voices and transformative, structural change. First, Cyndi Suarez speaks to Diana Hwang of the Asian American Women’s Political Initiative about how Asian American and Pacific Islander women are increasing their power in progressive politics. We then focus on a new Iowa law that chips away at the foundations of our democracy by penalizing the freedom of visibility expressed through activism and protest, emboldening violent vigilantes, and protecting law enforcement. Next, for our new health justice series on bodily autonomy, Sonia Sarkar discusses why organizations seeking to improve healthcare must promote the visibility and voices of community members with lived experiences of health inequities. Finally, the NPQ team is expanding: we’re hiring a senior editor for our Leadership desk. Join us!
