Injustice Funders

Dana Kawaoka-Chen, executive director of a new group called Justice Funders, issued a rallying cry in a recent talk with the Chronicle of Philanthropy. She said, "There needs to be a shift from wealth and power being accumulated within institutions toward a new vision where philanthropy is about redistributing wealth, democratizing power, and shifting economic control to the community."

Her colleague, Marie Nakae, put it more succinctly, saying it's time for foundations to pay “reparations.”
