A column on how media shapes what philanthropy sees – and funds
In On Media, Tirrea Billings explores the relationship between philanthropy and media – and how each shapes the way we understand social change.
Billings looks at how philanthropy and nonprofit work are represented by funders, journalists and grassroots organizations themselves, and how those narratives shape what ultimately gets funded. Along the way, she examines who gets heard, whose work gets taken seriously and how storytelling itself becomes a form of power.
