| Summary |
"In recent years, following the popularity of books like Ijeoma Oluo's So You Want to Talk About Race? and Ibram X. Kendi's How to Be an Antiracist, there has been a surfeit of books published on the politics of race and racial injustice; within the field of nonprofit organization and management, these books have tended to focus on diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) initiatives as a proxy for antiracism. NPQ's focus on "pro-Black" is a fresh perspective that pushes the field into thinking beyond corrective DEI measures. The proposed book names something that Black liberation movements in the U.S. have advanced--and continue to advance--in public discourse, but which people have not been talking about in the nonprofit sector: The urgent need to build a world in which Black people can thrive. An explicitly "pro-Black" framing focuses on designing nonprofit organizations, programs, services, philanthropy, and more for people who are most marginalized by systems of power. It advances the understanding that designing a better world for those who are marginalized will create a better world for everyone. NPQ has argued that this shift--"from critiquing white supremacist culture and calling out anti-Blackness to designing for pro-Blackness"--is already happening in the field (Suarez 2022). The reader captures this shift in nonprofit theory and practice; it will also include articles that present new possibilities for action"-- Provided by publisher. |
