Youth climate activist and @Riseupmovt founder @vanessa_vash points out that global issues like climate change, racial justice and poverty are all interconnected. We must consider the intersections in our work. #SkollWF#MovementBuilding #ClimateAction #PeaceAndJustice

When it comes to #Philanthropy and #FutureOfFunding, @coimpactcollab's @rakeshrajani says it goes beyond the amount of money or terms of giving. It takes solidarity with communities around the globe to understand how to get resources to the right place #SkollWF

.@GiveDirectly's Joe Huston shared his belief in flexible, direct cash transfers as a way to alleviate #poverty with #SkollWF. It's not a one -size-fits-all solution, and could create rapid, lasting change for people all around the globe.

In a debate about the efficacy of #ImpactInvesting at #SkollWF, @AmmaLartey of @ImpactInvGh made the argument that while it may not always optimize, it certainly can. Not only that, it has delivered impacts that simply could not have been imagined as recently as 20 years ago.

Advancing racial equity means building diverse boards and management teams, supporting proximate leaders and being transparent about practices, explains @FordFoundation's @DarrenWalker. #SkollWF

One issue limiting the impact half of #ImpactInvesting, according to @wabt, is that people have greater power, and greater potential for impact, in our roles elsewhere in society. #SkollWF

When it comes to delivering support for #ClimateAction to frontline communities, @CaldwellUSAID has a strong, clear vision for leveraging @USAID's support. #SkollWF

Can #ImpactInvesting optimize for impact? Amrita Bhandari from @acumen made the argument that it can, and does -- we just have to consider and measure success differently, and no one-size-fits-all approach #SkollWF

When considering the limitations of #ImpactInvesting at #SkollWF, @DRKFoundation's @myAzimia pointed out that the financial instruments we use to create impact were simply not designed for that, limiting the effectiveness and scale of impact capital.

My new book HOW THE WORD IS PASSED is out today. It explores how different places across the country reckon with, or fail to reckon with, their relationship to the history of slavery. I gave this book everything I have. Here are the places I visited 🧵:
