As NPQ moves into its two-week summer break, economic justice editor Steve Dubb highlights eight selected articles from the first seven months of 2024. These articles range from writing by Sulma Arias and Manuel Pastor on how social justice philanthropy can boost movement power to articles from each of three published series this year—The Vision for Black Lives: An Economic Policy, Ending Work Requirements, and Just Transition: Liberating Finance to Build a Better World—to how a nonprofit scrambled to find match money for federal funds and, from Denver, a story on organizing a resident-owned mobile home park. Lastly, from NPQ’s latest magazine on Escaping Corporate Capture, we reflect on what corporate capture is and a story of how workers are organizing to leverage their pension dollars for public benefit.
