Pronouns: She/Her
Mac Liman was born and raised in Colorado. She is passionate about organizing people around privileged identities — especially people who, like her, have race and class privilege — and she is honored to have been able to do this work with beautiful cross-class, multiracial community at Resource Generation since 2005 and Chinook Fund since 2007. She has served Chinook Fund on various fundraising and finance committees, as a Giving Project and White Privilege Caucus facilitator, and as a member of the board of directors from 2014-2020. In many ways, Chinook Fund developed Mac into the organizer she is today. She is forever grateful to the many Chinookies past and present who have taught her, supported her and lovingly encouraged her growth and accountability.
In addition to training, facilitating, and moving her people towards collective action, Mac accidentally became a master bicycle mechanic and taught thousands of people to fix thousands of bikes, and intentionally lives with many of her favorite people in a shared community home called Sleeptight. She likes building infrastructure for a regenerative economy, being a good neighbor, asking questions, and making people laugh.
