Fandom Made Me with Sabrina Cartan
Society & Culture
We are so back! On the season 2 premiere of Fandom Made Me, Sabrina Cartan talks about fixing philanthropy with Amy Schiller, author of The Price of Humanity: How Philanthropy Went Wrong–and How to Fix It. Known on the Internet for her pop culture takes such as “Beyonceder” and a viral Atlantic essay on American Girl dolls, Amy answers some of our most pressing questions, namely, why don’t average and working class Americans consider themselves philanthropists? Together, they delve into the little-known history of working class philanthropy and how small dollar donations funded the Statue of Liberty, ensuring the wealthy pay their fair share of taxes, and how a “giving wage” can change the way we live. A devoted Mariah Carey fan, Amy proposes a special Christmas-themed philanthropy project for Her Majesty, the Queen of Pop.
