Black History Collaborative – Interesting idea! They already exist within the school system and are working to improve the curriculum. It has immediate, on-the-ground impact. And, if we're focusing on an initiative that doesn't cash out the Steem (though, most organizations will likely not have the requisite time/labor to maintain a Steemit account), these teachers could have their students write and post. This has the possibility of using the seed Steem to generate more money in the long-term.

Blockchain literacy project – Who would run it? How would it be sustainable in the long-term (e.g., staffing)? Who would train the trainers? Some of the organizations mentioned have their own challenges (like the Painted Bride, which is selling its building).

The Fund for the School District of Philadelphia – Where would the funding go exactly? What program or specific need is it aiding? How do we know the money wouldn't just go to administration? This feels ambiguous.

Art Reach paid internships – This sounds amazing, however nobody on the staff of Art-Reach is disabled and they're nearly all white. This organization doesn't have a very good track record with internal diversity and inclusion. Yes, the intern could write/post on Steemit to generate more funds, however there might be a better place to start such a great initiative – somewhere with a better work environment and providing more direct services (rather than just a pass-through entity distributing tickets).

Public History Truck – I've always found this project problematic, run by young, white public history professionals soliciting poor communities of color to collect stories. I'm wary of the pseudo-grassroots approach that doesn't incorporate community members as interviewers and interviewees alike. In order to truly upend the white historiographical gaze, everyone must be included in the interpretation and curation of their histories. The celebration of the project by "the field," at times, felt white savior-esque and self-congratulatory. Indeed, for whom do we need to "humanize" local residents' histories? Surely not residents themselves. If we can do away with white spectatorship, then of course this would be a wonderful and self-sustainable idea. New Steemit posts used to generate funding could consist of excerpts from oral history transcriptions.
