In today’s Resourcing the Field newsletter, we examine the ever-present resourcing challenge from the perspectives of both movement groups and philanthropy.
We begin with a bold exploration by three Black male nonprofit leaders of what it means to show up as a Black male leader these days and why a core part of nonprofit leadership and staff resourcing staff work today is care work.
Next, a look at the potential and difficulties of building alliances between Jewish and Black activists to forge a stronger unified movement to confront contemporary authoritarian threats and advance liberation.
Then, we highlight an interview with Edgar Villanueva on the Decolonizing Wealth Project and the movement for reparations. The latter, Villanueva notes, is showing far more progress than the news these days would suggest.
Last but not least, in the latest installment of State of the Movements, NPQ’s column dedicated to tracking the pulse of social movements and the solidarity economy, authors from the Generative Journalism Alliance dive deep into what it means to pursue a “just transition.”
As you read these stories, I hope you find some inspiration—and perhaps get a few ideas on how to resource your own work, even in today’s difficult times.
