coops reading & discussion group
tbc, my job (criminal record clearance) is also in part funded by CZI. no shade, just honestly always shocked by the reach of that philanthropic org
coops reading & discussion group
ebprec's biggest chunk of money was from CZI last year? what? that zuckerberg money is *everywhere*
also: cooler, they got a chunk of change from rainbow grocery's foundation

free weekly anti-oppression education series
for the last nine months, Cyd Gray, a dear friend of mine who is an arts and anti-oppression educator, has been doing a weekly free anti-oppression education project called Sunday Slow Burn.
she's on week 35—there are so many past sessions to dig into, and a mailing list for future: https://www.ladymalandra.com/ssb
she does a ton of work to compile these resources. if you're able, consider supporting the gofundme for the project: https://www.gofundme.com/f/sunday-slow-burn-free-antioppression-education
me: damn this is a JAM

I found reference to my hometown in the history of Standard Oil I'm reading and, well, lol https://bookwyrm.social/user/christa/quotation/12370

It’s pretty wild how a main part of Standard Oil’s business strategy and success is going “Okay, person who transfers my oil (railroad, pipeline). What if you gave me a steep discount and then also paid me a cut of whatever other people pay you to transfer oil with you. Yeah I know it’s illegal but just be cool.” ... and the railroads and pipelines being like “ok sounds good.”
