A Brave Space for Black Fundraisers’ Virtual Conference will help Black fundraisers chart a personal journey and road map as they navigate a path that leads to our collective liberation and destination - racial justice within and outside of the sector. Our convening as Black people is critical as we reimagine and strive together to combat continued challenges and your presence, active contribution, engagement and participation. We want you to bring your ways of knowing and not knowing into this shared space.
The 2-day program demonstrates and advocates a different path to the way we can learn, act and move forward together. We can do this creatively. We believe that learning is both an individual and a collective experience. Therefore, we will embark on a learning experience by first examining and sharing our stories so that we can begin to see how our experiences are linked. The various cultural wisdom that the event organizers pour into this learning experience will create for attendees a rich and intersectional experience that encourages and calls for attempts to subvert our efforts to create and cultivate just spaces, communities and societies where systems and structures uphold equity and justice and where freedom from all forms of oppression ultimately prevails.
