In today’s Economic Democracy Weekly, we begin with a deep dive into the “justice” part of economic justice, with an article on a new report released today by First Nations Development Institute that offers a comprehensive analysis of issues of health, climate, economic, and racial justice in Native communities. Next, should the for-profit corporation exist? We explore this foundational economic justice question that’s usually deeply buried in our field. Then, a leader describes how his nonprofit dedicated to advancing a solidarity economy made it through tough times. Lastly, from today’s front pages, we offer a timely story on how budget cuts approved by the US House of Representatives could exacerbate medical debt and deepen health disparities.
