Dear Michel,

[image: corporate globe]In recent decades, and particularly after the
Supreme Court ruling on Citizens United, corporations have gained more
rights that often trump the common good.  The experience of Maryknoll
missioners and many people right here at home highlight the everyday
struggles of people to feed their families, to have access to clean water
and farmland, or to earn fair wages. Meanwhile corporations are increasing
their privileges and decreasing their accountability to the broader
community.

*The Faith Economy Ecology Transformation Working Group is hosting a
four-part webinar series* *on corporate power this fall *with faith
leaders, experts in the field, and advocates for change. The series will
explore how the role of corporations in society has changed over time, what
positive alternative forms of corporations exist, and how people of faith
can play an active role in confronting corporate power on a local,
national, and international scale. *Sign up here!*
