Big corporations have too much control over our economy–and our lives. Their influence means lower wages for workers of color, more pollution, fewer real choices in our communities, and increased surveillance and criminalization.

We believe it doesn’t have to be this way. To curb corporate power we will advance solutions that demand accountability, demand repair from past harms, and rewrite the rules of our economy. Corporations may continue to exist, but they don’t have to operate at the expense of our families and communities.

That is why we bring together researchers, organizers, and advocates laser focused on the development of transformative policy solutions that tackle the complex problems of our generation. Together, we ask:

• What role–if any–should corporations play in the Liberation Economy?
• What systems do we need to dismantle, and what new structures can we build that center dignity and care?
  
• How can we ensure corporations pay their fair share in taxes and do right by our communities?
• What do we need to do to shift anti-monopoly policymaking and debates away from neoliberal approaches focused largely on “consumer” harm and price effects, and towards more comprehensive, justice-centered frameworks?
• How can we further elevate the leadership of grassroots organizers and those most impacted to co-create, co-lead, shape, and advance anti-monopoly policy and advocacy?

Over the next several years, we’re partnering with base-building groups to spark curiosity, provide political education, and fuel imaginative possibilities to curb corporate power in favor of bold, transformative solutions that distribute power back to the people.
