@BlackFemSoc This is such an inspiring conversation!

[Maria Johnson @drmariajohnson]

I'm moved by all of the conversations I've had with people regarding my blog post about Black women's experiences with racism in philanthropy.

[Dorothy A. Johnson Center for Philanthropy @johnsoncenter]

"[T]he history of disinvestment in Black-owned financial entities and the systemic racism that has limited the accumulation of Black wealth have consequences for where and how funding for Black causes is housed and distributed."
