YESSSSS!!!!!!

Robin Kelly is amazing!

Book Elandria just referenced: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/206173/freedom-dreams-by-robin-dg-kelley/

This concept of re-villaging challenges the way that philanthropy pushes for scale and replicability, rather than supporting movements and orgs to be rooted in their unique social, economic and political conditions

I appreciate the probing questions!

It challenges progress = bigger, more

^^YES Nwamaka ty for that

LMAO

+1 to Nwamaka’s statement. In philanthropy the metric of what change looks like is not rooted I the uplifting the needs of collective. The shining thing that can be replicated that are not based in the needs of people is what is funded.

Just clarifying: BRC Black Radical Congress correct?

Tokenisizng!!! You said a word!

Yes @Helen and The collective not only needs to define it but they need to fund themselves as a means of building models of governance and participation

WOW!!!

YAAAASSSSS!!!! The youth are always the future!! WE have to heal to help them keep expanded the collective

How can we align and nurture the diverse ecosystem of tactics (which is necessary to calibrate to the level of structural forces and harm) rather than obstruct, dominate, or control these local models rooted in place and self-determination?

period!

Hybrid Space!!!!!!!!!!

Amazing!

Yes we are!

Thanks Elandria and all of the speakers for your vision and work!

You cannot be part of the work of social transformation without doing the work of inner transformation. Dr. Gail Christopher. Truth, Racial Healing and Transformation

Yes, Tracy Mack Parker!

And philantropy needs to reexamine what risk means. Most of the time it is about risk to themselves and their repetition. Not about the risk for the survival and quality of BIPOC lives

“Repair harm! Solidarity is not charity!”

Being Wrong: Adventures in the Margin of Error. For anyone new to this work! Start with understanding “being wrong” can be expansive! We have been socialized to a colonial binary of narrative of “right” and “wrong”…
