To pause, amidst a continual barrage of "fresh" horrors, is a radical act. We *can* stop the constant activity to honor the dead, the lost, the discarded. To defy the systems reliant on this violence. Let us pause, and be confused, despairing, rage-full, grieving together.

I have been asking myself for the past few days: What do I want to do with my time, energy, and attention in 2025? It keeps coming back to this: Prepare and accompany others to subvert institutional fuckery. We do this…together. https://t.co/tH3JDpxyq3 #newyears #vision #joinus

"At the onset of the genocide, I worked in the advocacy & comms dept. of a prominent intl NGO. What I witnessed was more than complicity; it was an active erasure of Palestinian voices. The lies, gaslighting & manipulation I experienced went far beyond..."

Next week! How can we bridge the interpersonal dynamics that shape our day-to-day work, and the systemic change we seek to make together? What pieces are missing? If you're curious about our group learning spaces, join us Wed, 8 January. Register here: https://t.co/cEqdzHAzAQ

"#Philanthropy has added fuel to the fire that is saviorism disguised as progress. The billionaires & multimillionaires starting foundations & funds and pledging to save the planet are using money taken off the backs of those on the front lines." @smizefox

We seldom admit the seductive comfort of hopelessness. It saves us from ambiguity. It has an answer for every question: "There's just no point." Hope, on the other hand, is messy. If it might all work out, then we have things to do. We must weather the possibility of happiness.

[NEW post] "...we are ruled by chronological timelines attached to dollars, shaped by the fantasies that are project goals. Urgency surrounds us and dictates our working lives, and yet we know that lasting, transformative change takes kairos time." #NGOs https://t.co/j63D58xpki

Can #collage make us more adept at learning to keep our minds—and perhaps more importantly our hearts—open to the possibility of unleashing the transformative power of everyday people in unimagined and unanticipated ways?

As we wrap up the #DonorChallenge year, take a moment to reflect: How did you center your partners in your strategies? Did you prioritize their needs? Did you challenge the status quo? Let's commit to learning and growing together! 🔗 https://t.co/bVUZ3mVm60

Also check out our IG Live that asks: Has there a crisis you've had to address at work, and what was that like? What was the nature of it? What were the implications? Were there resources in place to support you?

There are frameworks & skills that can help shift us from a vague view of safety to a specific view of safety planning. Investing in how to proactively approach safety in the workplace contributes to changed experiences, better relationships, and broader responsiveness. /end

Shout out to all the feminists NOT in Bangkok this week. Hello from Omaha, Nebraska, USA to the #AWIDForum2024! Thinking of this poem today, inspired at the time of the 2016 forum:

It takes practice for professionals to reshape how we relate to each other in the workplace. And it takes a group of humans - without institutional pressures bearing down on us - in which to hone these new skills of internal reflection, shared discernment, & meaning making. /end
