Portland, Oregon

I'm a white Jewish non-binary poly queerdo, a certified professional midwife, an anarchosocioegalitarianist, a dancer. Grew up with ADD in the SF Bay Area with a gay uncle and a homophobe Grandfather. Black Lives Matter, free the nipple, give the fucking land back, Water is Life, empathy is essential. Coming out is an ongoing process, mostly because cishets just really don't understand, ha! But I'm lucky my fam taught me to self-advocate. I'm prouder than ever. Always seeking to leverage my unearned privilege toward equity. Honored to grow herbal medicine with the Plantain Project and street medic with delightfully queer-centric Portland Action Medics for the people's movements. I combat the codependency of not receiving all the love I deserved growing up with healthy self-examination and good gay friends. Worked for a year at a Queer & Trans naturopathic health clinic and that was gay goals. House keys not handcuffs, esp for BIPOC Trans folx! Free health care for everyone. The first time I wore a strap I really felt like myself. This little light of mine will burn down all the prisons. Speak Truth to Power. The gayer the better.
