    Philanthropy is onto the next: how themes from Black Funding Denied are coming up today 

    In 2020, I remember being on a regional call with funders in New England who were optimistic that, after months of a global pandemic and a summer of the largest racial uprising this country has seen since the Civil Rights Movement, we were in a new era of philanthropy. I was not as convinced that…
