“Everyone gains when you can breathe, when you are in community, when you care about how people show up with their whole selves.

关于我们
We work to shift mindsets, practices, and systems within the social sector to increase race equity. We believe in a future where nonprofit and philanthropic organizations define, implement and advance race equity internally while advocating and centering it in their work externally. OUR VISION We envision a future where nonprofit and philanthropic organizations adopt a Race Equity Culture? focused on proactive counteraction of social inequities. We must build a future where white dominant culture is dismantled within all social sector organizations, institutional and structural racism have been eliminated at all levels of nonprofit and philanthropic organizations, and race equity has been achieved within organizations, across the social sector, and in communities. OUR BELIEFS We focus on race equity explicitly, as research has demonstrated that doing so drives a measurable shift in equity across a range of intersectional identities (gender, sexuality, ability, et al.). The dominant culture which characterizes American society and, therefore, its nonprofit and philanthropic organizations is inextricably linked to policies and practices that elevate one race above others. This shows up in a myriad of different ways, but persistent racial outcomes gaps in health, income, education, and housing demonstrate structural inequity based on race. By focusing explicitly on race equity, we believe that our efforts will help organizations create race equity cultures within their organizations, and help center race equity work as a core goal of social sector organization's missions.

Hurricanes Milton and Helene have once again exposed the devastating impact of severe weather on BIPOC communities. From Hurricane Katrina to Hurricane Harvey, and Hurricane Maria, the same story repeats: systemic racism magnifies the damage. Communities of color bear the brunt of poor infrastructure, underinvestment, and inequitable recovery efforts. It’s time to act. Building a Race Equity Culture? isn't just about dismantling white supremacy – it's about transforming our communities to protect and save lives. ?? Visit https://lnkd.in/eyfjqWEs for organizations and mutual aid funds who need your support now. You will also find resources and information about what folks are currently experiencing on the ground, supply needs, and more. Shoutout to Grantmakers for Southern Progress for this list!

“Because as Black women, our wisdom is unmatched. It is wisdom born of hope and rage, the discipline of joy, and a ‘why’ rooted in love, resistance, and solidarity. It comes from a deeply intimate understanding of the power and harm of the sectors we lead. And, most important, it is filtered through the lens of radical Black feminism, which dictates that any true movement for liberation must center those who have been pushed to the outermost edges of this country’s power structures.” In a time where a Black woman is running for the highest office in the U.S., these reflections on power, resilience, and the systemic toll of leadership on Black women couldn’t be more timely.
