"My parents told me to just keep my head down and work hard"- me and every AAPI immigrant who was treated poorly growing up. Amen @darrenwalker! This is is why @taaforg's work is so important to help us coalesce, claim our voice, and build bridges in our democracy. #TAAF #AAPI

YES! @TheDanaBuzz of @heronfoundation: capital allocators must #stumbleforward! There is no perfect #impactinvesting strategy. Co-create with communities, be #servantleaders, and deploy your capital already! Thanks for great insights @SonalRShah @BeeckCenter #beeckideas

I say to everyone who supported other candidates in the primary and to those who may have voted for Donald Trump in the last election: The future of our democracy is at stake. The future of our economy is at stake. The future of our planet is at stake. #DemConvention

Powerful parable by @jimsedu @bluemeridianp on the path necessary for systems change: "2 men stand by a river when babies start flowing down the river. One starts pulling babies out of the water. The other runs upstream to see where the babies are coming from." #JFFHorizons
