Manage episode 374175097 series 3379980
Joining me today to talk about the Non-Profit Industrial Complex, is GeeChee Yaw. Geechee is a published author, activist, organizer - has organized in the UK, the Baltimore and DC area and also organizes in Central America. Geechee is a member of a number of organizations like BPM. He provides research work and curriculums for a number of organizations. He is also a contributing writer for the Hood Communist - A collective of African revolutionary nationalists using journalism to advance the struggle for African liberation.
Geechee gives insights into foundations and/or non-profit organizations and how their funders influence and, to a large extent, shape the objectives of those they fund. Foundations are a good way of tax sheltering.
On the subject, Geechee says: We should be asking the question - How is wealth built? How is poverty built? To these questions, Geechee opines in this rather radical way: "Wealth is built through violance, public policy and fraud."
