The heart of her work is supporting social justice leaders and philanthropy to build the grassroots power it takes to win a multiracial\, feminist democracy.  \nUnrig the Game: What Women of Color Can Teach Everyone About Winning (Random House\, March 4\, 2025) draws on interviews with 45 of the most powerful women of color movement leaders of our time\, as well as Vanessa’s own experience as a leader\, organizer\, and funder. It offers effective women of color leaders and everyone who supports them a playbook for unrigging the game so we can all win.
