The Revolution Will Not Be Funded

"The Revolution Will Not Be Funded" is a concept that critiques how social movements often rely on grants and donations from foundations or wealthy sponsors. It argues that this dependence can compromise the integrity and goals of the movements, as they may prioritize funders' interests over grassroots needs. The idea emphasizes that true change comes from collective grassroots organizing, rather than financial backing from institutions that may not fully understand or support the movement's aims. It promotes the notion that authentic revolutionary change should be self-sustained and driven by the communities directly impacted.
