520    Decolonizing Wealth is a provocative analysis of the 
       dysfunctional colonial dynamics at play in philanthropy 
       and finance. Award-winning philanthropy executive Edgar 
       Villanueva draws from the traditions from the Native way 
       to prescribe the medicine for restoring balance and 
       healing our divides. Though it seems counterintuitive, the
       philanthropic industry has evolved to mirror colonial 
       structures and reproduces hierarchy, ultimately doing more
       harm than good. After 14 years in philanthropy, Edgar 
       Villanueva has seen past the field's glamorous, altruistic
       façade, and into its shadows: the old boy networks, the 
       savior complexes, and the internalized oppression among 
       the "house slaves," and those select few people of color 
       who gain access. All these funders reflect and perpetuate 
       the same underlying dynamics that divide Us from Them and 
       the haves from have-nots. In equal measure, he denounces 
       the reproduction of systems of oppression while also 
       advocating for an orientation towards justice to open the 
       floodgates for a rising tide that lifts all boats. In the 
       third and final section, Villanueva offers radical 
       provocations to funders and outlines his Seven Steps for 
       Healing. With great compassion--because the Native way is 
       to bring the oppressor into the circle of healing--
       Villanueva is able to both diagnose the fatal flaws in 
       philanthropy and provide thoughtful solutions to these 
       systemic imbalances. Decolonizing Wealth is a timely and 
       critical book that preaches for mutually assured 
       liberation in which we are all inter-connected.
