The Raven Foundation was established by Keith and Suzanne Ross to advance the spread of mimetic theory in popular culture outside of academic circles.
The Raven Foundation has re-branded itself with a religious bent as a welcoming place for those who don’t feel at home in any organized religion. They promote peace in religion, relationships, and contemporary culture by drawing heavily on the non-violent ethos of mimetic theory. The organization invests in media that depict mimetic theory in creative ways and partners with artists and organizations to bring Girard’s thought to more people.
The Raven Foundation gives an annual Raven Award for Excellence in Arts and Entertainment to someone whose work creatively represents mimetic theory, making it more interesting and accessible to a broader audience.
