Racial Justice

In this tenth episode of Black Work Talk, host Steven Pitts welcomes Maurice BP-Weeks, co-founder of the Action Center on Race and the Economy (ACRE). ACRE sits at the nexus of the struggles for racial and economic justice. As such, they provide campaign assistance to local organizations and engage in national campaigns against corporate elites.  Equally important, ACRE shapes the national narrative around role of the corporate elites in the exploitation of communities of color.  Last year, Maurice wrote a key article stating that Amazon was a key symbol of racial capitalism.
