Black feminist organizers are addressing the systemic challenges facing democracy, yet Black feminist organizations receive less than half of one percent of foundation giving world-wide. MacArthur, along with several other funders, is supporting an effort to rectify this disparity. “We work on many different issues, but we are united by a common conviction: It’s time to fund Black feminist movements like we want them to win.”

Funding for Black feminists and prioritizing Black women, trans, and gender nonconforming people is a key factor in lasting, positive change in society. MacArthur-supported Black Feminist Fund is working toward a safer more just society that creates sustained resources and investment to advance Black feminist work, with ripple effects for all people who hold intersecting identities.
