I managed to sneak one more project in before the end of the year: co-authoring an article with @MollydeAguiar for @NiemanLab on how philanthropy can invest in journalism as part of its narrative change strategies.

“It’s really important to focus on women’s resistance and resilience inside of Iran, and not see them as victims,” says Sussan Tahmasebi, executive director of the human rights organization @FemenaNet.

If you’re interested in career resources and opportunities (esp in the nonprofit and social justice sector), @mandyvandeven’s LinkedIn is a beautiful place 🙌🏽

Sharing info and opportunities is an antiracist practice. Doing so undermines the zero sum narrative at the heart of white supremacist capitalism that tells us our success is predicated on someone else's failure.

What is #NarrativePower?

It is the ability to shape the way we perceive the world as it is and as it could be.

[Candice Wynter @SeeWynter]

We talk a lot about implementing impact investing programs, but rarely explore how to effectively communicate about them.

Glad to be digging into this topic with @MissionInvest, @kristajahnke, & @prbach!

Hope you’ll join us & bring your questions💡 https://t.co/oqHTUI2aMM

Coretta was in the house alone with their baby the first time it was bombed. She accepted countless death threats. She wobbled to & from prison pregnant. May we never forget that it was her organizing that made #martinlutherkingjrday possible.

Every reporter today should be comfortable explaining the basic connection btwn extreme weather and climate change.

They should also be comfortable explaining the basic fact that climate change is caused by fossil fuels—and that the industry’s deception is why we’re in crisis.

What are some of the systemic barriers that keep people with marginalized identities out of philanthropy?

@BkMadzel shared her experience as a recruiter for philanthropy.

This isn’t proof the system works. It’s proof of how broken it is. Because it took us this long, and this much attention. Until we have a world where our communities can thrive free from fear, there will be no justice.
