Episode 04: Advancing Health Equity with Dr. Aletha Maybank, Chief Health Equity Officer, American Medical Association 45:22

45:22

On this episode of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast, Race Forward President Glenn Harris speaks with Dr. Aletha Maybank, Chief Health Equity Officer and Senior Vice President at the American Medical Association (AMA), to explore the transformative work underway to advance health equity in the United States. The discussion underscores the AMA's pivotal role as the trailblazer sponsor of the Facing Race 2024 conference in St. Louis, Missouri. The upcoming conference will spotlight the AMA's efforts by hosting a session in the National Health Equity Grand Rounds, designed to foster a deeper national dialogue on health disparities and equity-driven healthcare solutions. Dr. Maybank recounts her journey since assuming her role in 2019, focusing on the comprehensive strategies she has implemented to embed health equity into every facet of the American Medical Association’s policies and daily operations. Her leadership reflects a mission to reshape organizational culture, shifting the American Medical Association’s focus toward health equity as a core priority and collective responsibility. This effort, intensified by the dual crises of the COVID-19 pandemic and the public outrage following George Floyd’s murder, addresses the need for structural and systemic reforms in healthcare to combat longstanding inequities. A key initiative discussed is the Rise to Health Coalition—a wide-reaching collaborative effort uniting healthcare systems, professional societies, and advocacy groups with the goal of dismantling entrenched inequities within the medical field. Dr. Maybank provides detailed insights into the coalition’s initial accomplishments, such as identifying and eliminating discriminatory algorithms in healthcare that have historically resulted in biased patient care and outcomes. She outlines ongoing reforms that aim to address inequitable healthcare structures and reshape how care is delivered across the nation. The conversation also critiques dominant societal narratives that frame health as primarily a matter of individual responsibility. Dr. Maybank challenges these narratives, emphasizing the need to recognize and address social determinants of health, such as poverty, housing, and systemic discrimination, which disproportionately impact marginalized populations. This paradigm shift is crucial to developing equitable healthcare systems that prioritize collective well-being and access. Dr. Maybank also shares the challenges and resistance she faces in her leadership role, including navigating personal threats and opposition to her equity-driven agenda. She reflects on the need for resilience, solidarity, and finding moments of joy in the struggle for systemic change. Her reflections on leadership, partnership, and the American Medical Association’s ongoing National Health Equity Grand Rounds reveal how cross-sector collaboration and community-building are essential in driving sustainable change in healthcare.

In a deeply moving episode of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast, Jane Mantey, Director of Narrative and Cultural Strategies for Race Forward, connected with Michael Brown Sr. and Cal Brown, parents of Michael Brown Jr. Their heartfelt story and unwavering advocacy illuminate the enduring impact of their son's tragic death in a police encounter a decade ago–an event that ignited a powerful national movement and continues to shape the racial justice landscape today. Michael Sr. and Cal share their journey since the heartbreaking loss of their son on August 9, 2014. Their story reveals not only their profound pain and grief but also their relentless pursuit of justice and healing through their organization, Chosen for Change. This initiative empowers families through holistic grief counseling and outreach programs, aiming to build leadership and self-determination. Michael Sr. emphasized the critical need to support grieving families, drawing from his own experiences of inadequate support during his time of grief. He noted, "Grieving families are different. The first thing to go away is trust." Building trust and treating these families with respect and dignity is central to their approach. Cal elaborated on the significance of their various programs, such as Cookies and Convo, Chosen Fathers , and Mothers of an Angel . These initiatives offer inclusive grief support, helping families adjust to a’'new normal’ and providing the tools needed to heal and reinvent themselves. One notable program, 1st 48 Responders , ensures immediate support for families following a loss. "Despite what we are going through, we stand ten toes down in the work that we do," Cal stated, underscoring their community-driven efforts as a form of justice for their son and others. As they mark the 10-year commemoration of Michael Brown Jr., Michael Sr. reflected on the importance of remembering and humanizing his son. Their ongoing fight against police violence and systemic racism is highlighted by the recent loss of another young person to police brutality in their community. "We have served more than 1,700 families," Cal pointed out, emphasizing the continuing need for their essential work. Chosen for Change will participate in Race Forward’s Cultural Week of Action on Race and Democracy from September 27th to October 5th. This new initiative harnesses art, culture, and creativity to advance dialogues and spark collective action for a multiracial democracy. During the event, *Chosen for Change* will unveil "As I See You," an art exhibit created through Michael Sr. and Cal’s eyes in collaboration with Artivist STL, offering an intimate portrayal of Michael Brown Jr.’s life. In closing, Cal and Michael Sr. call for unity and urged listeners to support grieving families authentically. "If you do not have a voice, do not let anybody speak for you or your loved one until you find your voice," Cal advised. Their powerful testament to resilience and community strength continues to inspire and drive the ongoing fight for justice and equity.

41:04

On the latest episode of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast , Becky Pringle, President of the National Education Association (NEA), is interviewed by Anastasia Ordonez, Director of HEAL Together at Race Forward. This episode explores Becky’s journey from being a science teacher to becoming a prominent leader in education advocacy and the head of the largest labor union in the United States. Becky shares her lifelong commitment to social justice, influenced by her experiences during the Civil Rights Movement and her family’s involvement in labor movements. She discusses the significant challenges she faced when she began her presidency in 2020, amid the COVID-19 pandemic and a national reckoning on racial injustice. Becky reflects on how these events shaped her work and reinforced her commitment to equity and access in education. She states, “As I visit teachers and support professionals and students and communities around this country, I have never been prouder to call myself a teacher than I am in this moment, as I watch them working miracles every day with our students ... as I see them building community schools, meeting the needs not just of our students, but of our families, of each other, and then taking so seriously their role in our democracy.” Throughout the episode, Becky addresses crucial issues facing public education today. She emphasizes the importance of defending public education against attacks from right-leaning groups and highlights the role of strong, community-based partnerships in supporting and strengthening public schools. Becky talks about the NEA’s efforts to provide continuous professional development and create inclusive, restorative, and culturally responsive educational environments. She explains, “Public education was never designed for people who look like me. It wasn't designed for students with disabilities. It wasn't designed to make a safe place for LGBTQ+ students. It wasn't designed for those students and families who were living in generational poverty. It just wasn't designed for that. So we couldn't just promote public education as a common good and as a foundation of this democracy, we had to transform it into something it was never designed to be—a racially and socially just and equitable system that prepares every student, everyone to succeed in a diverse and interdependent world.” Becky concludes with a heartfelt tribute to the dedication of educators who continue to work tirelessly despite the challenges they face. Her call to action is clear: “We must ensure that public education delivers on its promise of providing equitable opportunities for every student.” To listen to more of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast find us on Apple Podcasts and Spotify and remember that you can support our work by texting “RFPOD" to 44-321 –– and help us keep the momentum going.

Episode 01: Impacting The Multiracial Electorate & Standing Strong For Racial Justice with Secretary Julián Castro 33:18

منذ 35 weeks33:18

33:18

Welcome to Season Five of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast! On the season premiere of Momentum, we had the privilege of being joined by Secretary Julián Castro, the newly appointed CEO of the Latino Community Foundation. In this conversation hosted by Cathy Albisa, Race Forward’s Vice President of Institutional and Sectoral Change, Cathy and Secretary Castro engage in a wide-ranging conversation about his vision for enhancing civic and economic power within Latino/a communities that will in turn, positively impact the broader multiracial electorate and the push to fight back against authoritarianism. Secretary Castro talks about his new role at the Latino Community Foundation, and the foundation’s mission to build a movement of civically engaged and philanthropic leaders, and the significance of investing in Latino-led organizations to unlock the full potential of Latino/a communities. He states powerfully, “America’s destiny and the destiny of Latinos are intertwined like never before.” He also emphasizes how investing in these organizations at the forefront of changing policies will have the added benefit of addressing economic disparities and decreasing the wealth gap for Latino/a communities. Having had a storied career in politics, as well as a memorable run as a presidential candidate, Secretary Castro provided us with his raw insights on topics related to our racial justice work from the federal level. As the former US Secretary of Housing and Urban Development in former President Obama’s administration, he notes the current lack of federal resources committed to creating housing opportunities and a need for a comprehensive approach to be able to tackle the nationwide crisis effectively. He also talks passionately about the longtime need for humane and compassionate immigration policies –– a debate he notes is continuously fueled by both political parties being influenced by “darker” narratives, and the importance of uplifting Last year, Secretary Castro and Stacey Abrams co-authored an article titled, “It’s Open Season on Civil Rights. Philanthropy Must Not Retreat”, in response to significant backlash on racial justice and equity organizations. Speaking to the theme of the article, Secretary Castro once again urges philanthropic leaders to remain committed to funding the bold work needed to continue the movement making and democracy building needed in these times where authoritarianism threatens to afflict the progress our movements have won. He advocates for a dual role where foundations are not only financial supporters but also rooted in understanding and addressing community needs through policy advocacy. With the next election coming up less than six months away, Secretary Castro and the Latino Community Foundation will be hard at work mobilizing Latino/a voters and having representation at the polls as they are once again set to play a pivotal role in determining the outcome of the election. Secretary Castro’s call to action to support organizing 24/7, 365 days a year, beyond the current election cycle is a reminder of the long term-investment and planning that goes into the wins working in partnership with our communities.

Season Finale: An Organizing Revival For 2024 with Sulma Arias, Executive Director, People's Action 36:09

منذ 40 weeks36:09

36:09

On the season finale of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast, Everette Thompson-Francois, Race Forward’s Vice President of Movement and Capacity Building is joined by Sulma Arias, Executive Director of People’s Action for an illuminating and invigorating conversation inspired by the Organizing Revival project launched one year ago. As Executive Director of a national organization that houses more than 40 organizations in 30 states, Sulma grounds her leadership in her two decades of rich community organizing experience with grassroots movements, as well as her own journey as a Salvadoran immigrant to Wichita, Kansas. Sulma’s narrative is one that reflects the collective resilience and determination of the thousands of constituents she helps lead in building “the power of the poor and working people in rural, suburban, and urban areas to win change through issue campaigns and elections.” Sulma and Everette’s conversation centers around the foundational values and forward looking vision of People’s Action, discussing strategic campaigns that empower local communities to create a national movement, the approach deeply rooted in direct action and relational power building. The “Organizing Revival” as it was envisioned, is a testament to the historically enduring spirit of activism for social change. Sulma talks about how this is more than just a strategic reset –– it represents a reaffirmation of community organizing as the bedrock for the large-scale impacts intended to be won, built through the historic wins being created by a new generation of dissenters and organizers. Her insights into the challenges and triumphs of mobilizing communities against the backdrop of at times hostile political and social landscapes offers an important look into the mobilization needed to inspire and sustain movement power. Sulma and Everette also discuss People’s Action white paper “The Antidote To Authoritarianism”: a report that addresses the question of building a multiracial and pluralistic democracy with an inclusive economy to defeat the rise in authoritarianism. She talks about how the report, written with insights from experienced organizers dedicated to building power contextualize how the various political, social, economic, and environmental crisis compounding each other are a strategy that is eroding democracy –– and how regrounding the movement for social justice is the most effective practices of community organizing to address this escalating crisis at scale is the strategy that is urgently needed. With the 2024 U.S Presidential Elections approaching, Sulma’s words are a reminder of the power vested in collective action. She invites our listeners and wider audiences to not shy away from, but to engage with the challenges of our times –– from the expansion of the climate crisis to the erosion of democratic norms –– through the venerable tradition of organizing. As we wrap up this season of Momentum, we want to – thank our listeners for joining us for four incredible seasons of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast. It is our privilege to bring you important conversations from our movement, to be able to create incredible work together. The next season of Momentum will kick off next month –– and we’re looking forward to having you continuing to join us as a valued listener.

This month as we celebrate the worldwide contributions of Black Americans and those of African descent, Race Forward and Americans For The Arts launched a national annual “Cultural Week of Action on Race and Democracy”, scheduled to take place in September of this year. This initiative aims to broaden awareness of and engagement in democracy and racial equity through cultural experiences across the entire country. Arts and Culture have played a significant role in how we, as Americans, view the world and see ourselves within it. Black artists and culture bearers have produced some of the most profound bodies of work in this area, particularly during the Harlem Renaissance, the Civil Rights Movement, and Black Liberation movements during the 1970s and 1980s. On this episode of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast, Ralph Remington, Director of Cultural Affairs at the San Francisco Arts Commission, essayist, playwright, screenwriter, and champion for racial equity in the arts, who presented the keynote address for the City of San Francisco’s Black History Month celebration on being African Americans and the Arts, speaks to Rachel DeCruz, project director for the Cultural Week Of Action about his decades long leadership in the arts and culture sector, pushing the envelope on culture and stories to continue moving the work of racial justice forward to build and sustain a multiracial democracy.

Episode 08: Defending The Pathways For Black Economic Advancement with Ayana Parsons, Co-Founder Fearless Fund 37:20

منذ 1 year37:20

37:20

Historically, from slavery to present day, efforts to create black economic advancement have been stunted continuously either through violence, such as the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre, or through systemic barriers and policies responsible for creating and maintaining the racial wealth gap. In August of last year, Edward Blum, the president of The American Alliance for Equal Rights (AAER), and the man behind the efforts to overturn affirmative action, filed a lawsuit against The Fearless Fund, claiming its Strivers Grant program violated the Civil Rights Act of 1866, by discriminating against non-black women. In response, Race Forward’s Senior Vice President of Finance and Operations Kerry Mitchell Brown authored an op-ed titled “The Fight Against The Fearless Fund Is A Fight Against Black Economic Advancement,” which reflected on the lawsuit brought against The Fearless Fund, whose mission is to invest in women of color-led businesses seeking financing by bridging the gap in venture capital funding for women of color business founders. With the conservative majority of Trump-appointed Federal Judges and a Supreme Court that ruled against affirmative action in higher education, is this lawsuit the beginning of the latest frontier in halting black economic advancement, and more specifically, black female economic advancement? On this episode of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast, Kerry Mitchell Brown speaks with Ayana Parsons, co-founder of the Fearless Fund about her trailblazing work, and the next steps in the fight for black economic advancement.

On this episode of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast, Senior Vice President of Strategic Partnerships, Faron McLurkin interviews CEO of Liberated Capital Edgar Villanueva, author of the best selling book “Decolonizing Wealth.” They discuss the ongoing activism for reparations at the intersection of the racial justice movement and the philanthropic sector. Edgar explains how his background as a part of the Lumbee Tribe and his career experiences influenced his perspective in money being “medicine” for historically oppressed communities –– leading to the work of Decolonizing Wealth. He takes us through the story of the organization’s founding, building the infrastructure for this trailblazing effort, to the Alight Align Arise: Advancing The Movement For Repair Conference presented by Decolonizing Weath. Faron and Edgar also discuss the evolving role of philanthropy following the massive investments into racial justice work after the George Floyd uprisings, and the importance of efforts to cultivate long-term financial commitments, placing the conversation of reparations at the forefront. They also talk about the expanding “sweeping” energy of the movement nationally for “redress and reparations”, and how this has begun an emerging international awareness, sparking a global movement.

Episode 05: Advancing Just, Multiracial Democracy with john a. powell 33:00

On this episode of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast, Julie Nelson, Senior Vice President of Programs at Race Forward and john a. powell, Director, Othering and Belonging Institute, come together in a conversation inspired by the recent essay they co-authored, “Advancing Just, Multiracial Democracy.” Throughout the conversation, they explore the role local municipalities can play in not only defending against “democratic backsliding,” but also in expanding the very nature of democracy, which is critical with the global rise of authoritarianism and nationalism. Julie and john’s work rests on the idea that local governments are uniquely situated to turn grim situations built on “othering” into a global movement grounded in racial justice and belonging. They examine the four principles they wrote about, which includes: 1. expanding democratic practice; 2. being explicit about who is currently included or excluded; 3. systems and structures; and 4. operationalizing and organizing for multiracial democracy.

Episode 04: Pushing Back Against The Rise of Christian Nationalism Through Faith with Obery Hendricks, Ph.D 30:25

منذ 2 years30:25

30:25

On this episode of Momentum: A Race Forward Podcast, Obery Hendricks, Ph.D., one of the most influential Black biblical scholars writing today, and Race Forward’s Chief of Staff Charlene Sinclair, Ph.D., who herself fashions strategies that embrace a liberationist approach to faith and spirituality for racial and economic justice, discuss the immediacy of pushing back against the spread of Christian Nationalism and the urgency of creating narratives based on the gospel’s “true teachings” to reflect the ongoing political moment and fight for progressive policies that stay true to the bible’s "liberationist ideals". Throughout the conversation Obery and Charlene share insights on the importance (and opportunity) for the progressive left to engage in spirituality and religion and why faith in movement spaces is not always well received; the weaponization of Christianity and the gospel by the right to justify implementing extremist policies; how Afro-Christianity has historically reflected teachings of freedom and liberation; and how religious leaders are being looked to to provide guidance as capitalism and white supremacy have led to the rise of authoritarianism and the destabilization of democracy around the world.
