Summary

Critics are questioning the optics of an oligarch-funded institution, raising concerns about corporate influence on racial justice. Is this a new era of performative allyship? While the AI bubble continues to inflate and the FTC steps back on key enforcement, the uncomfortable truth about money, power, and civil rights is now front and center.
