This week’s Leadership newsletter invites readers to think deeply about the relationship between philanthropy and inequitable structures. First, from the pages of our latest magazine, Liz Derias and Kad Smith discuss why DEI and symbolic pledges are not enough to build pro-Black organizations: such efforts do not meaningfully shift power, which is what’s needed. Next, we look at how social justice nonprofits depend on social injustice to resource and staff their organizations, potentially weakening grassroots efforts in the process. We then feature two recently published interviews between Cyndi Suarez and magazine contributors Isabelle Moses and Dax-Devlon Ross, where examples and analysis of meaningful power shifts drive the conversation.
