WASHINGTON — Failed Florida gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum has joined the board of advisors of The Collective, a little-known but increasingly influential progressive political organization that says it is seeking to build a “black political power” movement while its co-founder complained that there are too many “white men” holding public office.
Billionaire activist George Soros is a direct financial contributor to The Collective.
The clear majority of The Collective’s large donations come from a single entity, Collective Future, which is the 501c4 arm of The Collective and as such does not need to legally disclose the sources of its own funding. Gillum’s association with the group is notable given the Florida politician’s warning last February about the influence of “dark money” in his own race for governor, referring to entities that obscure their donors.
