In the spirit of collective care, NEC is taking the week of July 27th off to recognize the impact that the pandemic and uprisings have had on our staff. NEC staff will not be responding to communications or posting to social media for this week. Thank you for your patience while we pause to prioritize rest and reflection over productivity in this moment.
This week we’re talking about models for reparations from the financial sector, renewed calls for rent cancellation and a People’s Bailout, a solidarity economy 101 primer, the Breathe Act and the upcoming Strike for Black Lives. We’re also celebrating our 2019-2020 cohort of New Economy Reporting Project fellows!
This week, we’re lifting up movements for land-based reparations and a Black commons, growing calls to cancel rent and pass a Green Stimulus package that addresses the dual crises of coronavirus and climate change, solidarity with Palestine, a new report on the racial wealth gap during COVID-19, and more.
We’re talking about M4BL’s call to action over Juneteenth weekend, resources for abolition, community ownership of land, and a new policy toolkit about how we build a regenerative economy that starts with justice for Indigenous and Black communities.
