“My silences had not protected me. Your silence will not protect you. But for every real word spoken, for every attempt I had ever made to speak those truths for which I am still seeking, I had made contact with other women while we examined the words to fit a world in which we all believed, bridging our differences.” ― Audre Lorde, “The Cancer Journals”

According to the United States Census: The Columbia City neighborhood in Rainer Beach, South Seattle is the most diverse area in the U.S.A.; with the most languages spoken here than in any other zip-code in the entire U.S. On Rainer Ave lies an oasis of anti-racist, decolonized education. Rainier Valley Leadership Academy (R.V.L.A.) is a middle-school/high-school where true eduction and herstory thrives. Decolinizing spaces and minds is an actual, factual reality in these walls. Art and leadership flourish in this institute and one of the Hip-Hop highlights that reside there is a 14 year-old 8th grader named King Zaae.
