#RacialEquityImpInv Twitter Chat: Fighting For Racial Justice
Updated 6/12/20. Email Laila Hussain if you have questions.
Join the growing list of collaborators below on Friday, 6/12, at 2-4PM ET for the #RacialEquityImpInv Twitter Chat, intended to serve as an open dialogue for the impact investing community as we fight for racial justice. The Twitter Chat will provide a space to grieve, be in community, demonstrate commitment, mobilize with urgency for concrete systems change, and seek solutions around the following questions:
-
What can impact investors do #rightnow to deepen their commitments across their racial equity practice and organizations and support urgent community needs?
-
What can impact investors do over the next (6-24 months) to support meaningful #institutionalchange and #communitychange with respect to racial justice?
-
What should investors do in the long term (2-10 years) to support enduring #systemschange for a more just world?
