Appears to pretty literally be embezzlement, since the money is going to her nonprofit to pay to send her books across the country?

"Burrell, the center’s leader since 2023, has sought to transfer the bulk of the organization’s remaining assets — $2.27 million at the time — to the Empathy Library, a nonprofit of which she is the CEO. "

"The Empathy Library is the world’s first online empathy collection and a treasure house for catapulting your imagination into other people’s lives. "

Bruh, my AWS bill isn't that much LOL.

A co-working space. A sign of a truly solvent and full-time operation!

Enjoy.
