Remaking the Economy: Where to Now? -- and Beyond
Event Category 

NPQ’s latest webinar in our Remaking the Economy series looks at the state of economic democracy in the wake of the 2020 elections with an eye to mid- and longer-term possibilities. Three leading activists to start the conversation. The panelists are:

Dr. Gar Alperovitz, historian, political economist, and cofounder of The Democracy Collaborative, based in Washington, DC, and the author of What Then Must We Do? Straight Talk about the Next American Revolution.

Laura Flanders, based in New York City, an award-winning journalist who hosts The Laura Flanders Show and was recognized this year by the Lannan Foundation for her body of work, which “helps the American public begin to imagine alternatives.”

Dr. Stacey Sutton, associate professor of urban planning at the University of Illinois at Chicago, where she examines worker cooperatives, economic democracy, equitable development, and the racially disparate effects of place-based policy.

Steve Dubb, NPQ Economic Justice Program Director, moderates. Steve has worked with cooperatives and nonprofits for over two decades and has been both a student and practitioner in the field of community economic development.
