@symbodied🌷In words of Shardé Nabors, our Resource Redistribution Director ”Within the context of Black communities, both in the U.S. and throughout the diaspora, we see solidarity economies in things like Susus, co-ops, community organizing, and mutual aid efforts. We're familiar with the grandmas and the aunties, who create ecosystems of care taking care of the kids, cooking for the block, even saving money to buy property or provide help to single mothers.”
You'll learn about:
✌️The Black Solidarity Economy Fund: what it is, the intention for starting it, and the plans for growth.
👌The collective regranting process and how it felt for some grantees to shift from grantee to grantmaker.
🤝The future to build a robust Black Solidarity Economy & the current barriers.
