Today’s Economic Democracy Weekly takes a closer look at entrenched practices that exacerbate inequality—and how to challenge them. We begin with the next article of our ongoing series with Bargaining for the Common Good, in which the authors show how community organizations led by women of color can use critical race feminism for the common good. Next, we take a closer look at the Paycheck Protection Program, and how it systematically failed to create economic security in a time of crisis. Our third piece is an excerpt from Dan Immergluck’s Red Hot City: Housing, Race, and Exclusion in Twenty-First Century Atlanta, which explains how private equity targeted millions of homes in the wake of the foreclosure crisis. Lastly, we invite you to join the conversation around our summer magazine issue with our call for pitches for pieces on the ownership economy.
