Power and privilege shape both our work and the world around us. By situating our efforts within broader contexts—examining prevailing paradigms and the explicit and implicit social agreements that guide behavior—we seek to interrupt entrenched patterns and help create new mindsets and systems. We recognize that this work takes time, particularly when action is grounded in a deep understanding of the histories and structures that produce inequity.

At the same time, we hold a strong bias toward action, recognizing that meaningful change cannot wait for perfection.
