Let’s Introduce Myself

What’s the word mockingbird!

1.) My name is Redd, him pronouns,

2.) I’m an organizer with the people, not for the people, if you get what I mean.

3.) It’s been a difficult journey but many have supported me along the way. Many have given me medicine it different forms and have taught me the oneness in us all, A’ho Mitakuye Oyasin, In LaK’ech, Namaste. All of these mean All my relations in one form or another.

4.) I also write! And I am excited to share that journey with you all and tell you more stories :).

5.) In July I found a home that accepted me: Tía Chucha’s Centro Cultural and Bookstore. It’s great being a writer and working at a bookstore. I’m a program assistant to focus on our abolitionists vision to end incarceration and practice transformative justice ✊

6.) i also really enjoy Manga :D. Manga has inspired me to make visual art for my novel and I hope to be as great as an artist as them. I also love Japanese storytelling because I’m a lot of the stories I read there’s never a clear binary on good or evil. There’s always a thick grey line to exist on.

7.) Again, these teaching have supported me so much along my journey. My parents are from El Salvador. I was born here and I never agreed with American values. I know some of my parents culture but it’s really just the language the food. I hope to connect with my ancestors in a way where I can feel authentic and appreciate how far we have all come .

8.) Oh! and part of writing is Hip-Hop so excited to share that with y’all too!

Thanks for Reading!

In Solidarity,

... Read moreIn this compelling narrative, Redd reflects on his life as an organizer deeply rooted in community engagement and activism. Standing out through his unique journey, Redd has been influenced by Indigenous teachings that emphasize oneness and mutual support — themes that resonate deeply in many cultural expressions. The phrase 'A’ho Mitakuye Oyasin' teaches interconnectedness, reiterating a profound respect for all relations. His role at Tía Chucha’s Centro Cultural and Bookstore signifies more than just employment; it's a platform to advocate for transformative justice and support abolitionist movements. The bookstore serves as a community hub, integrating cultural art with literature, all while promoting healing through storytelling. Redd’s passion for manga has also inspired his artistic endeavors, as he strives to create visual narratives that challenge traditional binaries of good and evil in storytelling. Redd’s identity is interwoven with the cultural richness of his Salvadoran heritage, from the language to the food, displaying a desire to reconnect with his ancestral roots. This intimate glimpse into his life encapsulates a heartfelt call for authenticity and appreciation for the journey thus far. Through this article, readers are invited to explore the multifaceted experiences of a contemporary artist and organizer who fervently believes in collective empowerment and equity.
