  • Harvard Kennedy School Professor Megan Ming Francis SPRING 2020
    DPI-367: Philanthropy & Social Movements: Will the Revolution Be Funded? Harvard Kennedy School Professor Megan Ming Francis SPRING 2020 I. COURSE OVERVIEW We are at a zenith of philanthropic giving. Foundation assets have grown to well over $800 billion today. As a result, there has been an explosion in private charitable foundations and innovative donor initiatives. For the most part, philanthropy is celebrated. Individuals give away their wealth to worthy causes and help to steward significant social change. But this grandiose narrative belies a much more complicated story—especially as it pertains to the funding of progressive and conservative social movements. What happens when the interests of funders and grantees clash? This course will examine the history and future of philanthropy’s relationship with social movements. Some questions this course will take up include: What is philanthropy’s responsibility to supporting radical social movements? What are useful strategies for funders to confront their privilege in grantmaking? What does movement co-optation look like? How can grantees guard against the deleterious influence of well-meaning funders? To what extent can philanthropic investments remedy entrenched structural inequality? And what is the impact of funders on democratic governance? II. COURSE GRADING & ASSINGMENTS You will be graded for the course based on the following criteria: 15% Class Participation (including class activities) 35% 5 Weekly Writing Responses 400-500 words 15% Autobiographical Professional Statement, 1000-1200 words 35% Final Podcast Assignment III.

(Dania Maxwell / Los Angeles Times via Getty Images) Introduction A fist raised in solidarity for George Floyd. (Clay Banks) In a tragic year that witnessed injustice and violence against communities of color and our democracy, along with an unprecedented global health pandemic, Proteus Fund focused our efforts on bringing people and communities together in the critical fight forward. Through our donor collaboratives—Piper Fund; Rights, Faith & Democracy Collaborative; and RISE Together Fund—we responded with: • Nimble grantmaking that supported a critical coalition for judicial independence in Pennsylvania; • Consulting expertise and grantmaking that created significant non-partisan civic engagement of Black, Arab, Middle Eastern, Muslim, and South Asian voters; • Funding for gender justice advocates in New Mexico as neighboring states used the pandemic as an excuse to cut off access to abortion and other reproductive health services; • Proteus Fund’s first-ever post-election convening of funders and movement actors that assessed opportunities and challenges on social justice issues in light of November’s elections. (You’ll learn about many of these efforts in the pages that follow.) In 2020, we worked hand-in-glove with activists and allies on the ground advancing social justice.

Based on the idea that Citizens United and related cases transformed political spending by en- larging existing organizations and spurring the creation of new organizations to influence poli- tics and inform policy, their report sought to answer a question: Did it similarly change philan- thropic support of traditional public policy organizations, effectively displacing and shifting support from those organizations to “Citizens United” groups?
