Who controls the money controls the vision — and for too long, Black-led organizations have had to bend their visions to fit funding structures that were never built with them in mind. This Freedom Lecture brings together Brianna Rogers and Treye Johnson to explore how personal history, proximity to community, and genuine accountability can reshape funding portfolios to nourish Black-led work rather than constrain it. This is a conversation for practitioners, philanthropists, and anyone who has ever watched a brilliant community vision get diluted by the terms of a grant. Plant Money. Fund Freedom.
