We have 637 charities registered in York. Imagine these as boats in a harbour, all privately owned, all doing their own thing.. Now imagine replacing all that with 4 large pontoons in the bay..?
Now if you were a person looking to put your energy into increasing social justice, and not spending your time to keep the boat going; the money collected is used to maintain the boat, volunteer hours are used to maintain the status quo, when everyone really wants to focus on change..?
I want us to focus on the difficult things. I want to make things uncomfortable. i want to dive down deep.
I think changing the way we think about social justice (and not just changing the brilliant orgs that have struggled into existence - and that don't exist in many part of the world).
I think this is a good place to start..
