Listen now
Description
🎙️ Join me, Rhea Wong, on this week’s Nonprofit Lowdown as I sit down with Margaret Huang, the incredible president and CEO of the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) and SPLC Action Fund. Together, we dive into how we can make geographically specific causes nationally relevant—especially in today's political climate. Margaret shares her unique journey in becoming a leader of one of the most impactful nonprofits in America. We discuss the importance of intersectionality in civil rights and how the SPLC is addressing threats to our democracy that start in the South but resonate nationwide. Whether you’re in New York or beyond, this conversation is a must-listen. It’s not just about the South; it’s about all of us. Don’t miss out on Margaret’s insights into the changing landscape of civil rights and the power of grassroots mobilization.
