This Race + Power Weekly highlights the work activists are doing to make visible the needs and power of marginalized communities. First, NPQ editor in chief, Cyndi Suarez, reports on the invisibility of Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) women and the emergence and growth of a first-of-its-kind initiative to mobilize their political power at the state and local levels. Next, Stanfort Perry, with Nicole Zerillo, on the intersections of the civil rights and disability rights movements—and today’s struggles for disability justice. Then, from our archive, why funders must step up their support for AAPI and Indigenous communities—especially in the COVID-19 pandemic’s wake. And finally, racial justice writers and editors: NPQ is looking for a senior editor!
