Abstract / Description

"We know what works. We know what will center the humanity and dignity and ensure that Black folks are not just surviving but thriving . . . But we don’t fund it.” - US Rep. Ayanna Pressley, MA-07
In this powerful quote, Rep. Ayanna Pressley is highlighting two important ways philanthropy and other sectors can drive meaningful change by:
1) Focusing on strategies that center humanity and explicitly address the disproportionate burden of inequities shouldered by Black and Brown people; and
2) Ensuring that investments support these strategies. (author introduction) #P4HEwebinarOctober2023
