Today’s Economic Democracy Weekly offers a range of stories on the importance of building on the knowledge of communities. We begin with an article that introduces a new series of community stories on arts and the solidarity economy. Next, an article on the federal child tax credit reminds us that community-designed solutions work but maintaining them as policy requires building movement power. A third article shows how nonprofits working with existing immigrant savings culture can dramatically improve local community wealth building. Lastly, a Chicago union leader explains why advancing justice at work requires addressing community needs.
