    “Many collaborators know well that community-led change is emergent and nonlinear. Yet, the underlying assumptions and practices of traditional philanthropy often conflict with this reality.” Good read on how the funding community can build trust with community leaders. 👍🏼

    I spent most of 2021 off Twitter to focus on my daughter - born in Feb! - and on consulting for amazing groups. My 2022 Twitter intention is to regularly (~few times/wk) share inspiring or thought-provoking reads while staying grounded & balanced. What’s yours? Tips? 👋🏼👋🏼👋🏼

    Indeed— much of the time “low overhead” means lack of investment in effective management, technology, systems, innovation...a downward spiral driven by fundraising (which also requires overhead). The lack of hands-on experience (by boards, funders) is a real challenge here.

    Coming out of Twitter sabbatical (briefly) to send gratitude to everyone who’s working on mutual aid & donations to help India navigate the covid surge disaster. 🙏🏼 Such a devastating situation right now.

    We might need a hard reboot on trust... “Trust requires building spaces where we’re able to see and meet those who are different from us, and ultimately form relationships.” -

    What a moment for our country and for women of color in particular. The first Latina Supreme Court Justice, Sonia Sotomayor, administers the oath of office to the Vice President Kamala Harris, the first black, South Asian, and woman to hold this office.

    Million $ question! Devastating day, but I remain hopeful because hope is a practice, because of all the brave souls defending democracy from violent attacks, & because we still have a shot to transform the cynical politics of fear, division & lies that so many have embraced.
