Episode description
MPR News host Angela Davis talks with Tonya Allen, the president of the McKnight Foundation.
The Minnesota-based family foundation grants approximately $100 million dollars every year and is focused on advancing climate action and racial equity — two deeply connected issues.
Find out what’s driving the foundation’s priorities, how Allen shifted from working on education policy to climate change and racial justice and how she aims to center people who are farthest from power.
