Decolonizing Wealth
Decolonizing Wealth is a provocative analysis of the dysfunctional colonial dynamics at play in philanthropy and finance. Award-winning philanthropy executive Edgar Villanueva draws from the traditions from the Native way to prescribe the medicine for restoring balance and healing our divides. Though it seems counterintuitive, the philanthropic industry has evolved to mirror colonial structures and reproduces hierarchy, ultimately doing more harm than good. After 14 years in philanthropy, Edgar Villanueva has seen past the field's glamorous, altruistic façade, and into its shadows: the old boy networks, the savior complexes, and the internalized oppression among the “house slaves,” and ...
Decolonizing Wealth, Second Edition
This second edition expands the provocative analysis of the racist colonial dynamics at play in philanthropy and finance into other sectors and offers practical advice on how anyone can be a healer. The world is out of balance. With increasing frequency, we are presented with the inescapable truth that systemic racism and colonial structures are foundational principles to our economies. The $1 trillion philanthropic industry is one example of a system that mirrors oppressive colonial behavior. It's an industry whose name means "the love for humankind," yet it does more harm than good. In Decolonizing Wealth, Edgar Villanueva looks past philanthropy's glamorous, altruistic façade and into it...

A Sunny Place for Shady People
The car bomb assassination of Maltese investigative journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia in 2017 shocked the European Union and put the world’s spotlight on an island so small that few knew it was an independent country and even fewer could find it on the map. But Caruana Galizia’s death didn’t come as a surprise to those who lived there. Ryan Murdock had visions of living a slow-paced island life on the Mediterranean while writing about his experiences, so in 2011 he moved from Canada to Malta. To the casual visitor, Malta is a sleepy place with sun-soaked shorelines and ancient fortified harbors. Murdock imagined it to be an archipelago island of warm weather, gorgeous views, busy cafes...

Descolonizando la riqueza
La verdad ineludible es que el racismo sistémico y las estructuras coloniales son principios fundamentales de nuestras economías. Nuestra industria filantrópica de mil millones de dólares es un ejemplo flagrante. ¿Cómo, pues, cambiamos la filantropía y otras industrias hacia la reconciliación social y la sanación si sus premisas básicas son la explotación, la extracción y el control? En Descolonizar la riqueza, Edgar Villanueva mira más allá de la glamurosa y altruista fachada de la filantropía y nos introduce en sus sombras: supremacía blanca, complejo de salvador y opresión interiorizada. Después, basándose en tradiciones nativas, Edgar empodera a individuos e instituciones para comenzar a reparar los daños mediante sus siete pasos para la sanación. En esta segunda edición, añade inspiradores ejemplos de personas que utilizan sus recursos para descolonizar el sector del entretenimiento, museos, bibliotecas, la propiedad de tierras y mucho más. Todos podemos ser personas y líderes sanadores para restaurar el equilibrio, y todos tenemos que hacer nuestra parte. ¿Estás dispuesto?
