As we kick off Co-op Month, today’s Economic Democracy Weekly features two articles on worker cooperatives. One, by NPQ’s Steve Dubb, covers a session on funding at last month’s national worker co-op conference. Relatedly, Todd Leverette writes about why employee ownership funds won’t reduce the racial wealth gap, unless they employ a racial justice lens. Next, in our ongoing series with Bargaining for the Common Good, an autoworker union vice president and the Sierra Club president offer their vision on how their movements can work together for both climate and economic justice. Lastly, we offer a webinar conversation in which Movement for Black Lives’ Shanelle Matthews and three panelists discuss how to build narrative power for economic justice.
