How Did We Get Here?: Using Data to Keep Race on the Table

Flyer for ABFE's "How Did We Get Here?" Community Workshop, displaying the event title.

Historically, data has been used as a tool of oppression. ABFE’s "How Did We Get Here?" tool interrogates traditional power dynamics, disaggregates data to reveal disparities, and uses a backward design approach to understand root causes. Participants will gain insights on how to design solutions, better focus resources, and rewrite racist narratives.

In the face of anti-DEI backlash, equity fatigue, and rising hostility to progress, it's important for philanthropy to double down and be proactive, not paralyzed.

Keeping ABFE's Responsive Philanthropy in Black Communities Framework at the center, we'll use current examples to help you develop systematic responses to mobilize resources at your organization.
