Women of color-led organizations in our analysis received just 8% of asset-building funding. We need to close the leadership capital gap by investing in the infrastructure and partnerships that ensure long-term stability. Read the full report here: bit.ly/BeyondGlassCliff

🎧 On the newest episode of the Solidarity Is This podcast, Adaku Utah talks with UyenThi Tran Myhre about episodic solidarity in our movements and why we need to build and resource transformative solidarity infrastructure for the long haul: www.solidarityis.org/podcast-epis...
A quote from Adaku Utah on the July 2026 Solidarity Is This podcast episode. "When we say solidarity is  survival, we mean that no  single community,  organization, or movement can withstand this moment alone. The only way to have a fighting chance is to be so connected across race, across issue, across geography in ways that are durable enough to hold under pressure and in these surge moments, but also in the long, grinding, and unglamorous work in between."A graphic from Building Movement Project visualizing what Solidarity Infrastructure consists of. There is an illustration of a coral reef done in watercolor with shades of purple, deep blue and green, and deep gold. The coral represents four different interconnected parts that make up solidarity infrastructure:  skills (capacities and competencies that sustain trust, strategy, care, and safety over time.capacities and competencies that sustain trust, strategy, care, and safety over time); spaces (containers where relationships, learning, and collective action grow); structures (agreements and governance that make long-term collaboration durable and accountable.agreements and governance that make long-term collaboration durable and accountable); and scaffolding (tools and systems that align groups to move together).

Loidymar says: "We love to say that we are a very, very resistant people as Boricuas. We are fighters, we are winners, we are whatever we want to be." Quote from Loidymar Duprey González, Co-founder and Program Manager, La Tejedora, speaking on the February 2026 podcast episode of Solidarity Is This with the Building Movement Project. Loidymar says: 

"I think that our power remains in believing that we don't need the United States to do anything that we want. 

One of the biggest and greatest example of that is how people organized themselves after Hurricane Maria, in which we were almost six months without electricity, water and basic needs. 

After that, a beautiful mutual aid network started and it started from that principle, that basic humane principle of having solidarity with one another. And because I am recognizing the humanity that is in you."
