This is a terrible charity. Self serving, toxic and abusive. I was asked to volunteer on one of their committees, because of ana antiracism project I was organizing. I have never experienced such bulling and abuse. They used their wider network of "elites" to enhance bullying and deception, to protect themselves while they destroyed our
project to coopt it and hoard resources and opportunities for "their friends." Toxic. Stay away.
