  • These are All Our Children
    Feb 18 2026

    We are pleased to announce the creation of Billy Shore's regular Substack Column. Click on or copy and paste this URL

    https://tinyurl.com/Billy-Shore to subscribe. In today's column, Billy talks about the horrific conditions children (many of them US citizens) are enduring while being illegally held in Migrant Detention Centers here in the United States.

    Today, we are reprising a episode that we feel is really important to be heard. In May of last year, we released a podcast with three thought leaders in philanthropy, Jeff Braddock, who co-founded Bridgespan Clara Miller, who led the Herron Foundation and the Nonprofit finance fund, and Daniel Stitt of the American Enterprise Institute, and what they spoke about, about how philanthropy shows up in the face of so many challenges that we're experiencing right now. Assaults on human service organizations, assaults on social justice programs, feels even more important today as those assaults continue. This week, for example, some of the news that I've been following is among the most disturbing of anything, and we kind of, it feels like we say that week after week as developments unfold. But the story about children being detained in Dilley, Texas reminds me of what James Baldwin said when he wrote, "These are all our children and we shall either profit by or pay for whatever they become."

    Host Billy Shore talks with Stupski Foundation CEO and author Glen Galaich about his new book, Control: Why Big Giving Falls Short, and why philanthropy must shift power from donors to communities.

    They unpack spend-down foundations, “fake rules” that keep $2 trillion sitting in endowments, and how trust-based philanthropy can move resources faster to address hunger, health inequities, and other urgent needs.
