RSAA Stakeholders:
An Ecosystem of Organized Disruptors
Defining The Ecosystem
In our dynamic Ecosystem of Organized Disruptors, our Black members are the driving force, infusing our work with fortitude and determination. RSAA stakeholders, including Members, Investors, Staff, Government Agencies, and our supportive SpaceShifters (formerly known as allies), unite in our commitment to confront white supremacy culture and systemic racism through reparations. Together, we're forging pathways to reparative justice and healing, anchored by the leadership of our Black members.
