So thrilled about this. I still believe there is no greater investment in our communities and society than building leaders committed to equity and justice. Congratulations @uzetaj & the @PublicAllies team for your vision and hard work
A transformational $10M investment from MacKenzie Scott and Dan Jewett is the largest gift in Public Allies's history: publicallies.org/racial-equi… #SocialJustice #Philanthropy #Equity

This week’s assault on our democracy—and flagrant display of white supremacy—was tragic and dismaying, yet sadly unsurprising in a country founded on (and still unwilling to truly reckon with) the genocide of one people and the enslavement of another. publicallies.org/statement-o…

Thank you, Kippy!
Thrilled to make #GivingTuesday2020 gift to @PublicAllies. Since it brought me and @jasonascott together, it's on my forever list for all good things. And the 8000+ alumni demonstrate what diversity in leadership looks like everyday. teapawt.net/PublicAllies/status/13…

Hey leaders: This is your daily reminder that diversity, belonging and a thriving, innovative company culture cannot be built on old power models of hierarchy, competition, domination, tyranny and backstabbing. This is true regardless of industry.

"When it comes to the 2020 election, these persistent inequities are *exactly* why we need all we can to counter a justified cynicism and desire to tune elections out." —Jaime Ernesto Uzeta, CEO of Public Allies #Democracy #Election2020 #EveryoneLeads publicallies.org/we-all-lead…

Big news from the House! Expanding national service has broad bipartisan support because we know that #NationalServiceWorks. That’s why we’ve been working to include the #CORPSAct in the next relief package. This is an important step forward.
House introduces updated HEROES Act package and includes $350M to support new and existing @AmeriCorps and @AmeriCorpsSr programs #Stand4Service

Thanks to @Citi Foundation for stepping up to support our Allies who are working to fill the cracks laid bare by the pandemic and redesigning the systems that created those cracks in the first place. #Pathways2Progress publicallies.org/citi-founda…

Powerful leadership from @davidcrowleyWI, MKE County Executive & @Publicallies alumnus: "This is about action. Systemic racism has been deeply rooted in our laws, our policies & practices...we have to invest in equity...and it’s going to take all of us to rise to the occasion."
“I understand why there’s so much urgency, because we can’t continue to see this. This is traumatic. We are witnessing this... as people of color... we have to do something,” says Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley about public reaction after Jacob Blake’s shooting.

Shout out to @PublicAllies Milwaukee and reflection on the leadership and beauty of this young people's movement
Replying to @MikeCurkov
“The young people across the country are standing up and putting themselves at some risk.” -@PaulSchmitz1 and @reggiemooremke are both proud of the young leaders of this movement. #Milwaukeeprotests @CBS58 (11/13)
We stand in solidarity with our Black brothers and sisters and demand they be respected, first, as humans, and second, as an invaluable source of our country’s creativity, innovation, and vibrancy.
