At Milken Institute’s Global Conference last week, @emersoncollective ’s Laurene Powell Jobs and @anoncontent ’s @darrenwalker joined @concordiastudio ’s Davis Guggenheim to discuss a changing media landscape and why shared stories, and shared spaces, still resonate.
Anonymous Content President & CEO @darrenwalker speaks with @variety ’s Cynthia Littleton about our upcoming presence at @festivaldecannes with three films in the festival, including the competition title “Parallel Tales” from two-time Oscar winner Asghar Farhadi; the animated feature “In Waves,” from Phuong Mai Nguyen, part of the Critics’ Week lineup; and horror thriller “Victorian Psycho” from helmer Zachary Wigon for Un Certain Regard.

When @darrenwalker left Wall Street for Harlem, he was challenging a narrative.
By connecting his story to the work, he helped turn it into action. #InGreatCompany

“Inequality is the enemy of hope, and hope is the oxygen of democracy.”
Darren Walker transformed philanthropy by challenging the systems that create inequality. His leadership at the @FordFoundation proves that lasting change requires confronting uncomfortable truths about power and privilege. At this year's #TheAlbies, we honored his unwavering commitment to justice.

I’m honored to receive this year’s #RippleOfHope Award from @RFKHumanRights . Congratulations to my fellow honorees, Stephen Colbert (@stephenathome ), Earvin “Magic” Johnson (@magicjohnson ), and Martin Cabrera, Jr.
Inspired by Senator Robert F. Kennedy’s 1966 Day of Affirmation address to students in South Africa at the height of Apartheid, the Ripple of Hope Award reflects his belief in human dignity and in our collective power to advance equity, justice, and human rights.
It was a truly memorable evening. I am humbled to receive this honor, which recognizes that spirit of service.
Darren Walker, former president of the @fordfoundation , delivered a moving speech while accepting his #RippleOfHope Award, recalling how Sen. Kennedy’s visit to the Mississippi Delta gave him hope for the future of our country.
Darren, your leadership and courage are an inspiration to us all. Thank you, and congratulations!
Public media is a critical resource, ensuring every American has access to free, quality news and regional programming, whether they live in rural America, the suburbs, or big cities.
Celebrating this vital mission with New Yorkers truly captures the spirit of optimism I extoll in my new book, The #IdeaOfAmerica.
I was deeply honored to receive the Philanthropy Leadership Award at the New York Public Radio Gala. Congratulations to my fellow honorees: David Remnick, Stephen Colbert (@stephenathome ), and Evelyn McGee-Colbert.
Following an introduction by John S. Rose and Mikhail Baryshnikov, I shared that even in a polarized climate, I believe we can realize our American ideals through our shared values.
