(they/them)
a Queer, Biracial, Black & Afro-Peruana Femme born in raised in E.Hartford Connecticut. Rinne-Julie first got into Social-Justice work during their undergraduate career in the Greater Boston Area, and has been leading facilitations, workshops and designing social justice and equity-based curriculums for young people/students of all ages since 2015. They’ve worked with nonprofits, K-12 school districts and several universities since then.
“When I first entered the social justice world, a lot of the trainings and workshops I saw were based in retraumatizing BIPOC folk, for the sake of learning and focused mainly on devastation. While it's important to name those things, I like to ground my work in healing BIPOC folx first and this idea of “What does it look like to live in our liberation as we fight for it?”
