S4 Episode 9: The Hidden Danger of Purity Culture, ft. Lorraine Nibut
Purity culture is a form of supremacy and oppression — controlling and dictating how people express themselves, causing anguish and keeping us from our best work. Michelle and Lorraine Nibut talk about large breasts, gun culture, our clothes, the sexualization of little girls, fetishization and consent violation ... basically the many ways purity culture holds us down — and what we can do to fight back against it!

We could have sector wide transformation if white women could center and hold a clear commitment to racial equity. So what does that look like? Fleur breaks down some nonsense with ownership and responsibility in four calls to action.

Traditional philanthropy has been asking nonprofits to jump through ridiculous and paternalistic hoops since its inception. But as movements like CCF require institutions to rethink how we do our work, we are not questioning our evaluation and metrics practices!

Michelle talks with Marcia about Equitable Evaluation Framework and how our practices are so wrong and how to do better.

What is 'Rainmaking'?
Rainmaking is the practice of bringing in lots of money so that our organizations can thrive and do the work that they’re meant to do on behalf of the community. However, there are also many ethical considerations that we’re not used to making in the nonprofit sector, thus The Ethical Rainmaker was born.
