Foundation funds are often extracted from communities - #participatorybudgeting is a way of redirecting those funds to and through communities. #IPDConf2018 @PACEfunders

Communities are skeptical of top-down institutions that are run by elites, and foundations are no exception to this. #IPDConf2018

Ingredients for cooking up radical change: confusion, fun & participation. - @ForumTheatreNYC #IPDConf2018

This confluence of factors disproportionately affects people of color and combines to produce these effects:
