“The nature of humanity, its essence is to feel another’s pain as one’s own, and to act to take that pain away. There is a nobility in compassion, a beauty in empathy, a grace in forgiveness.” – John Connolly

I Believe in the Value of

Radical Change

“In order for us as poor and oppressed people to become a part of a society that is meaningful, the system under which we now exist has to be radically changed. This means that we are going to have to learn to think in radical terms. I use the term radical in its original meaning—getting down to and understanding the root cause. It means facing a system that does not lend itself to your needs and devising means by which you change that system. That is easier said than done. ” -Ella Baker

Together, we can get it done.

Alona Sistrunk

A creative problem solver with an entrepreneurial spirit, Alona brings over a decade of experience amplifying movements for freedom, justice, and economic inclusion for all to her operations manager role.

She has held positions at several legal advocacy organizations, including the National Employment Law Project, the ACLU of Missouri, and the MacArthur Justice Center, as well as several mission-aligned for-profit communications companies.

Alona is a proud graduate of Howard University (B.A. Sociology).

At a time when it feels as if willful ignorance and indifference to human suffering are spreading like wildfire, I am especially proud to partner with diverse leaders courageous enough to challenge the status quo. Together, inspired by the strength and triumphs of our ancestors, we are rooting out exploitative systems, growing our networks, harvesting our collective wisdom, and co-creating a more equitable, just world for generations to come.

I Believe in the Value of

Strength in Numbers

Giving BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ visionaries hidden deep into our communities their power. Communities thrive when we begin to learn from each other and grow in understanding. The first approach to change is building and creating resources that help knock down the barriers that are built in our society. I truly feel empowered witnessing others find their voice and move towards a call to action.

“There is no greater agony than bearing an untold story inside you.”- Maya Angelou.
Everyone has a story to tell. Often times our lived experiences shape the work that we want to accomplish, but the barriers make us think this isn’t possible. I believe working with others that share similar experiences creates community and within community is power.

I Believe in the Value of

strategic collective action

“Individually, we are one drop. Together, we are an ocean.” – Ryunosuke Satoro

Institutional racism and white supremacy underlie many, if not all, of the social and health crises that exist today, whether it be the racial wealth gap, homelessness, or climate change. I believe that we all have a role to play in dismantling these deeply engrained ideologies and practices. Together, we can make a change by consistently engaging and listening deeply to those who are most impacted, educating ourselves, acknowledging and using our privileges to advocate for change, reflecting on and challenging our biases and assumptions and those of others, and supporting BIPOC organizations that are leading the movement.

Anika Akhter

Manager, Operations & Admin | she/her

Anika works closely with the Operations and Partner Services teams to implement strategic business initiatives. She serves as a thought partner by offering data analysis and perspectives, identifies improvement opportunities and formulates solutions, and provides communication, research, and administrative support.

Anika brings five years of expertise in evidence-based program development, implementation, and evaluation, grant writing, strategic planning, contract management, and project management to this role. A passion for advancing equity for BIPOC through systems change underlies her career trajectory.

Previously, she worked as a Performance Management Analyst, Project Manager, and Manager of Special Projects for the Los Angeles Homeless Services Authority (LAHSA). During this time, she played a key role in the active contract management of a $44 million portfolio of homeless service programs in Los Angeles County. Prior to this role, she worked as a Health Equity Fellow for the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), during which she developed recommendations for organizational leadership on how they can improve their research and evaluation approach to issues affecting tribal communities. Anika holds a B.A. in Public Health Policy from UC Irvine and an M.P.H. in Community Health Sciences from UCLA and is a certified Project Management Professional (PMP).

“In my previous roles, I observed firsthand the limitations of the current structure and how it perpetuates economic inequities for BIPOC leaders and organizations. At PL, we strive to center “What if…?” and “Why not?” as our guiding questions day-to-day, in the hopes of disrupting the status quo and breaking away from the unjust, extractive practices that have resulted in economic inequality. I am honored and thrilled to work at an organization that displays an unwavering commitment to creating a just economy for all.”

I Believe in the Value of

inclusion

“Diversity is a fact, equity is a choice, inclusion is an action, and belonging is an outcome.” – Arthur Chan. Every person has the ability to take on the action of inclusion. As community members, it is our responsibility to be inclusive and demand inclusive action. Although systemic change takes time, it is through inclusive action that community members and organizations can move our society to one that everyone can feel like they belong. Being inclusive is not about race, gender, socio-economic status, sexual orientation, or gender identity. Inclusivity is about seeing people as people and treating them with the dignity and respect personhood calls for. Being inclusive is being compassionate, having empathy, and respecting a person’s right to simply be themselves.

Jill Smith

Sr. Director of Operations & Admin | she/her

Jill possesses over a decade of distinguished experience in serving historically underrepresented communities through the development of systems and programs. With a robust background in nonprofit program management and operations, she has been at the forefront of launching several initiatives aimed at enhancing data collection and analysis, bolstering grant and donation revenue, expanding volunteer engagement, and refining operational processes.

At Possibility Labs, Jill is instrumental in managing the day-to-day operations, administration, partner service operations, and human resources. She holds an M.B.A. from National University and a B.A. in Political Science and African American Studies from California State University, Northridge.

“At some point, someone decided that this hyper-capitalist society is how our society should operate, despite its harm to the masses. Although it should be a choice to disconnect from a culture that values commerce over community, doing so would mean embracing a level of disenfranchisement that most people are not comfortable with. Before people can make the choice to disengage with dignity, we must create a society that allows community members to live a life that aligns with their own values without sacrificing basic needs and freedoms. We can do this in a variety of ways, including separating the acquirement of basic needs from capitalist ventures. People should not be able to capitalize on another person’s need to survive.”

I Believe in the Value of

creating community-driven economic power

Help build a platform to confront capitalist financing mechanisms and operational systems that are driving worker exploitation and planetary destruction and help community-driven, BIPOC-led initiatives to operate with the scale and agility of white-led enterprises, without capitalistic values.

Raymond Pettit

Director of Partnerships | he/him

“I’m looking forward to building systems and collaborations with philanthropic partners, embedding democracy in decision making, and developing equitable resourcing strategies that push back on exclusionary development practices. To move philanthropy to deploy its full charitable portfolios towards a platform where Black/Brown folks build power and economic might, rather than accepting old limitations of grant making models.”

I Believe in the Value of

Community-controlled capital

That uplifts traditional knowledge, disrupts extractive practices, and creates a regenerative and just economy that meets the needs of communities and the planet.

Kelley Buhles

Senior Advisor | she/her

As the African proverb goes, “If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together.”

community

None of us are seeds cast into the wind. We were lovingly planted in the rich fertile soil of family, friends, and culture.

We acknowledge the collective and ancestral contributions to our success and act accordingly by paying those efforts forward to our chosen tribe.

“Narrowing and ultimately closing the racial wealth gap requires a multi-disciplinary approach with a host of actors: organizers and activists, elected officials, impact investors and their advisors, ecosystem builders and the philanthropic community. I’ve grown more hopeful recently that these constituents recognize the urgency of the problem and will increasingly act boldly and swiftly in directing resources where they are most needed.”

I Believe in the Value of

Collaborative Storytelling

… to help people find meaningful narratives and forge emotional connections to those with different lived experiences. Humans are born storytellers, it’s how we make sense of the world. Some of the earliest examples of human stories date back to cave networks over 30,000 years old. I think storytelling has the power to help humans see our infinite connectedness.

It’s exciting to sit at the nexus of these groups and individuals and get to think strategically about how we will weave and layer their stories to help others envision a better world. And not to simply envision it theoretically, but see exactly how it is possible.”

I Believe in the Value of

Compassion

“We are all implicated when we allow other people to be mistreated. An absence of compassion can corrupt the decency of a community, a state, a nation.” – Bryan Stevenson

When we begin to center compassion- in the way we interact with others, the way we make decisions, the way we live our lives, then we can effectively talk about what it takes to break down the systems that have been built to oppress and work towards equity and justice.
