In conspiratorial #Blackliberation cahoots is our favorite place to be! This is not the same as #allyship. READY Nationwide is a hybrid social venture, and our sister nonprofit arm, Racial & Gender Equity Enterprises, is launching soon.

Drum roll: Racial & Gender Equity Enterprises' vision is to ensure that social entrepreneurs closest to the problem are closest to the power and positioned to leverage their spark, fire, and collective courage to dismantle #AntiBlackRacism root and branch—from pre-K to gray.
