    Addressing Nonprofits’ Historical Harm to Minority Groups through Radical Transparency: Urban Displacement and the Making of a University
    (2020-11-13) Rayman, Denise
    How can today’s nonprofits address their past harmful actions to minorities and other vulnerable groups? This paper will present and analyze one method nonprofits can use to address this history: radical transparency. This paper will present a historical transparency project at IUPUI to address our racist history, placing it within existing public history work around radical transparency as a method of social repair, comparing to current trends in financial and governance transparency in nonprofits, and ultimately showing a broader concept of public transparency within the nonprofit sector as a valuable tool for social justice.

    Social and Racial Justice in Teacher Education: An Africana Womanist Mandate
    (Cambridge, 2022-08-17) Kazembe, Lasana D.; Jackson, Tambra O.; School of Education
    This essay discusses the concept of social and racial justice in teacher education in tandem with core tenets drawn from Hudson-Weems’ theorizing on Africana Womanism: spirituality, respect for elders, family centeredness, mothering. As Africana people continue to grapple with reverberating crises within education, it is increasingly clear that we need to embrace and articulate a theoretical lens, philosophical stance, and praxis rooted in Africana perspectives and in the centrality of our culture in order to move us toward mental and cultural liberation. Aside from parents, educators represent the largest group of socializing agents who directly and consistently impact the lives of children and youth. Thus, if Black educators operate from a colonized ontology and epistemology, then Black children are likely to be seen as empty vessels in need of fixing. In order for our social and racial justice project to flourish, it is critical that we engage in a constant shedding (i.e. unlearning/relearning) of non-Africana knowledge hierarchies while simultaneously re-orientating and re-rooting ourselves in liberating paradigms and practices drawn from Africana culture and traditions of educational excellence. The result is a restorative approach to teacher education, informed by the liberatory theoretical vision and generative possibilities of Africana Womanism.

    Women Give 2022: Racial Justice, Gender, and Generosity
    (Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, 2024-05) School of Philanthropy, Indiana University Lilly Family
    Women Give 2022 examines how gender affects giving to racial justice causes. The 2020 murders of George Floyd and other Black victims galvanized widespread calls for racial equity and justice. The Black Lives Matter movement gained momentum even during the COVID-19 pandemic and economic crisis—both of which disproportionately impacted women.1 Despite these challenges, women have led this movement in countless ways, from participating in marches, to financially supporting those affected by racial injustice, to contacting elected officials to demand police accountability.2 While corporate and foundation pledges and commitments to racial justice have received considerable attention, everyday women have been supporting these efforts all along. This study focuses on these women and their households to understand their generosity toward racial justice causes and organizations.

    Women have a long history of working for civil rights and racial equity in the United States. Today, women collectively have more resources to effect change than ever before, and are leaders in the racial justice movement. Women Give 2022: Racial Justice, Gender, and Generosity examines philanthropy around these movements. How do households define racial justice organizations? Who gives to these causes? And how do factors like gender and race shape this giving?
