BILL AND MELINDA GATES FOUNDATION

“Sharp critiques of the ‘1 percent’ have been commonplace since the first Occupy
Wall Street
protest. Sociologist Linsey McGoey goes as far as to question the strategies
an
d influence of the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, the world's largest
charitable foundation, in No Such Thing as a-Free Gift. McGoey credits the Gateses .
for doing good, such as seeking to eradicate malaria and other disease, but takes issue
with their approach to global health problems.”
