2020 Post-Election Briefing: No Going Back — Building for a Better Future

Click here to view the recording.

The COVID-19 pandemic and recession have exposed and deepened our current economy’s structural weaknesses and inequalities. Increasing political polarization, spiraling  economic inequality, conflict over who belongs (particularly along lines of race, ethnicity and national origin), and rising fascism are all putting our democracy at risk. Hear from funder colleagues on how they are supporting policy advocacy, organizing and civic engagement strategies to build a more inclusive and equitable economy and democracy. Participants will have the opportunity to reflect and react to the panel discussion and share a question or takeaway this discussion brings up for them in small breakouts at the end of the program. Speakers:

• Laine Romero-Alston, Open Society Foundations (moderator)
• Carmen Rojas, Marguerite Casey Foundation
• Don Chen, Surdna Foundation
