His essay laid the foundation for modern philanthropy.\nToday, we find ourselves in a new gilded age―defined by levels of inequality that far surpass those of Carnegie’s time. The widening chasm between haves and have-nots demands our immediate attention.\nNow is the time for a new “Gospel of Wealth.”\nIn From Generosity to Justice: A New Gospel of Wealth, Darren Walker, president of the Ford Foundation, articulates a bold vision for philanthropy in the twenty-first century. With contributions from an array of thinkers, activists, and leaders including Ai-jen Poo, Laurene Powell Jobs, David Rockefeller Jr., and Dr. Elizabeth Alexander, Walker challenges and emboldens readers to consider philanthropy as a tool for achieving economic, social, and political justice.\nThat task requires humility, moral courage, and an unwavering commitment to democratic values and institutions. It demands that all members of society recognize their own privilege and position, address the root causes of social ills, and seek out and listen to those who live amid and experience injustice.\nWhat began in Carnegie’s day as a manual for generosity now becomes a guide that moves us closer to justice―a guide that helps each of us find a way to contribute.\nJustice is calling. It’s time we answer.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1633310779\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1633310779.A\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Acceptable\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Walker, Darren\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: This copy has clearly been enjoyed—expect noticeable shelf wear and some minor creases to the cover.
