The first two liberatory practices—doing the inner work to walk the talk and decolonizing the nonprofit industrial complex—are about unlearning previously unexamined attitudes, values, and practices, like white supremacy culture, that keep individual leaders and organizations from advancing equity and liberation in our communities. Dismantling these barriers are foundational, essential to building a more equitable organization or movement ecosystem. Because these habits are so entrenched that they almost become second nature to many, dismantling them requires explicit intentions, persistence, self-reflection, collective alignment, and grace. Challenging the status quo in the nonprofit sector also calls for courage and creativity.
