Cultural Economist helping leaders build a common ground of understanding and collaboration on race and economic equity
In this month's CGC Journal, we dive into the War Waged Against Black Women and DEI. Plus, we ask the critical question: Why do a majority of White women vote polar opposite of the majority of Black women ... and all nonwhite women? We want to hear from you. Join our co-learning community and let's have a conversation. To make substantive progress we must understand the enemies of our progress. https://lnkd.in/gctvFRz5

Beginning to dig into the Spring 2024 Edition of Nonprofit Quarterly Magazine, and without question, it’s a powerful and instructive read! 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 The latest edition of the magazine primarily sheds light on the amount of energy and skill Black women in social sector leadership are forced to expend to navigate unjust intersectional power dynamics. The pieces also offer a window into the resulting consequences for organizational leadership and management. If you’ve been following my thoughts here, and other places, these topics have been on my mind for Black leaders, more generally, and NPQ has been such a tremendous resource. Check it out and apply the lessons!
The Spring 2024 edition of NPQ Magazine is here! This edition is a resounding “no” in the face of the travesty that Black women leaders, and other women of color leaders, have been contending with in the sector.

The conversation surrounding women’s right to vote is a classic example of the dangers of a single narrative. When the Woman’s Suffrage movement is discussed, the ratification of the 19th amendment on August 18, 1920 and the access achieved for white women is often centered. For another 45 years, societal practices would prohibit women from marginalized communities to exercise this right. We’re taught that these issues are separate - a gender issue and a race issue - when in fact they are intertwined. The intersection of our identities only heighten our level of need. Adella Hunt Logan was a Tuskegee Institute faculty member who wrote for The Crisis, an NAACP publication, once shared “if white women needed the vote to protect their rights, then black women – victims of racism as well as sexism – needed the ballot even more.” The passage of the Voting Rights Act of 1965 accomplished what the Women’s Suffrage movement set out to do - securing the right to vote for women - ALL Women - and so many more. When society anchors to a single narrative, we only see a fragment of the whole picture. #womensleadership #womenshistorymonth #womenempowerment #challengethestatusquo #DEI #Diversity #Equity #Inclusion #TransparentWriting #EquitableFuture #LiveYourTruth #RaiseOurVoices #WomensHistoryMonth #WomxnsHistoryMonth #CelebratingWomen #Women #Womxn

As more states acknowledge the devastating impact of Nonconsensual Distribution of Intimate Images (NDII) and Image-Based Sexual Abuse (IBSA), it's crucial to adopt comprehensive laws to protect victims. This bipartisan effort tackles the rise of tech-facilitated gendered violence, emphasizing the urgent need for stronger legal protections. To learn more and hear from some of the legislators championing these protections, please go to: https://lnkd.in/eYmv3cwk

🏛️Join the #civility pledge movement initiated by Mayor Marianne Meed Ward (C.Dir.). Details: https://lnkd.in/gAF6t7xC We pledge to: 1. Support each other and call out #abuse and #harassment when we see it or experience it; 2. Call on all our allies to stand with us to support women in office and call out all forms of abuse and harassment; 3. Call on all elected officials to uphold the highest standards of conduct, focusing on #respectful debate of the issues and not personal attacks; 4. Call on the relevant authorities to ensure the protection of individuals who speak out against abuse, or who experience abuse, providing them with the necessary support and resources.
A huge thank you to everyone who contributed to and signed the H.E.R. Halton pledge back in May to end harassment of women in government. We have started a movement -- with the pledge being picked up nationally by the Canadian Association of Feminist Parliamentarians! We are now working on what are our next steps and intend to open up our original H.E.R. pledge and invite any elected officials who want to sign on to reach out to my office. We will keep a rolling update, including on my website. If any elected official hasn't done so and would like to, please let us know and we'll add new names as they come in. I also encourage elected officials to reach out to their own networks of women to include anyone who wishes to participate. Learn more and read a copy of the CAFP pledge here: https://lnkd.in/gda7d5zK
