Copy this CollectionThese stories all explore impressive problem-solving: Protecting indigenous lands, preserving Black history, bringing much-need investments into underfunded communities, deploying effective crime-prevention techniques, and preventing sexual harassment. What makes these all the more special is the fact that these responses were all executed by underdog protagonists, but these stories focus on their aspirations, not their limitations. The odds may be stacked against the protagonists in these stories but that hasn't stopped them from creating extraordinary responses and working toward solutions for their communities. From a Black mother-daughter duo that preserves the past for the sake of their communities' future, to indigenous groups that tapped into the power of social media to protect their land, these responses highlight leaders in action.
