Are billionaire-backed philanthropies making the world a better place or are they pernicious sleeper cells? The answer may be one of those âboth/andâ situations rather than an âeither/or.â This week on Sea Change Radio, we examine philanthropic giving with journalist Tim Schwab who investigates high-profile entities like the Gates Foundation, that are working for positive impact but funded by the billionaire class. We peel back the layers on these types of organizations with a particular eye toward their funding of independent media, and explore the question, âAre foundations vestiges of a colonialist mindset offering scraps from the masterâs table or are actually important vessels for change?â
