WEPOWER Wednesday: Lessons from the Oscars
The Oscars remind us that while Hollywood tells stories, we own ours.
Just as Ryan Coogler and Michael B. Jordan won by betting on a decade-long partnership rooted in trust, WEPOWER bets on the bond between local businesses and neighbors. We’ve learned from Sinners that change happens when we organize and tell our story on our own terms.
