equity

Serious question, please boost for reach.

I’m a 50+ white male.

How many old white guys out there would be willing join a 501(c)(3) whose mission is to oppose old white guys in positions of power? How many people would be willing to provide financial support for the same?

Nothing like this currently exists in the U.S. and I think it could be a damn effective form of protest. Personally, I’m sick and tired of seeing old fucking white guys in power everywhere I turn. Am I an aberration?

Oh, and despite thinking of myself as a bit of wordsmith, I’m admittedly terrible at acronym generation. What’s a good name for an organization pursuing said mission?

MamaMuse is a group committed to “reverse-engineering sexism.” They’re building a library of voices, which is resources on the topic of equity.

They just featured one of my talks in their library. I’m so honored. 😊

Hi folks!

I've been on Mastodon for about a year and would like to meet more accounts to follow to follow. Please boost and provide recommendations.

I am an #EmergencyManagement professional who specializes in wildfire recovery. I assist communities with rebuilding after #disasters, funding sheltering and evacuation costs, drafting mutual aid agreements, and developing comprehensive recovery plans.

I don't know of many other folks on here that work in emergency management, but would like to make more connections.

I'm interested in #weather #HamRadio #Preparedness #PNW #Oregon #ORWX #Outdoors #minimalism #Equity #UnionStrong

#The19th wanted to ‘normalize’ #women in #power. In 2024, it’s dreaming bigger.

The nonprofit newsroom, entering its fifth year, is making new hires & planning to grow an endowment.

The birth of the 19th came in the wake of #HillaryClinton’s 2016 electoral loss — & a growing frustration that traditional #news #media wasn’t equipped to cover women in #political life.
