#PhilanthropySoWhite 2021: An Urgent Conversation on Whiteness in Philanthropy

This must-listen to webinar hosted by Edgar Villanueva, Principal of the Decolonizing Wealth Project, provides an excellent point of departure from which to consider, plain and simple, the long-standing problematic of white privilege in the context of philanthropy which is overwhelmingly by and for whites. It asks the key question of "what is the role of white leaders in philanthropy in dismantling white supremacy?

Panelists consist of Nick Donohue, President & CEO, The Nellie Mae Education Foundation; John Palfrey, President, John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, Hilary Pennington, Executive Vice President of Programs, Ford Foundation, and Vanessa Daniel, Executive Director of the Groundswell Fund.

Do listen to the very end to hear Vanessa Daniel speak truth to power on what relinquishing white privilege and decolonizing wealth actually looks like.

This is without a doubt one of the more courageous conversations on philanthropy I have ever heard.
