Join Shira Hassan, Mariame Kaba, adrienne maree brown, Erica Woodland, and The Native Youth Sexual Health Network for a conversation about liberatory harm reduction and Shira Hassan's new book, Saving Our Own Lives.

In her new book, Saving Our Own Lives: A Liberatory Practice of Harm Reduction, Shira Hassan tells the stories of how sex workers, Black, Indigenous, and people of color, queer folks, trans, gender non-conforming, and two-spirit people are – and have been - building systems of change and support outside the societal frameworks of oppression and exploitation.

At a political moment when Liberatory Harm Reduction and mutual aid are more important than ever, this book serves as an inspiration and a catalyst for radical transformation of our world.

Join us for the virtual book launch event for Saving Our Own Lives with Shira Hassan, Mariame Kaba, adreinne maree brown , Erica Woodland and Native Youth Sexual Health Network (NYSHN). More speakers to be announced soon!

"Saving Our Own Lives is rooted in Shira Hassan’s extensive experience and commitment to harm reduction as a liberatory practice. This is a book grounded in deep love for those who are most marginalized in our society and respectfully documents their stories and emancipatory analyses. This open-hearted book is illuminating, informative and inspiring. It will have a forever place on my bookshelf." —Mariame Kaba

Thank you for checking out my profile!  A little about me that you may not know.  I am a Second Generation German (Pedigree on my fathers side )& part African American (my mother BTW was Oakland California's 1st Black Ms. Oakland), I"m often mistaken for Persian, or middle Eastern, Perhaps my green eyes, and unibrow was to blame..

 I grew up watching my  fathers musical accomplishments, in total awe.  HIs talents  allowed  him to string flawless funk bass riffs, with his Cover band, 'Paris Nights', and at the peek of dads' Professional Career he'd toured with renown acts, such as:  Prince, Luther Vandross,& Gloria Estefan.   Concerned with musical  Entertainments'' nuanices,  and negativities within the  industry, my father chose to be  a full time dad, to raise me without the sound of music.  FORBIDDING an activities that dealt with instruments, not allowing me to even participate in school choir!  I was suppressed from the music scene voiding any hopes of  musical exploration.  As a freshman I began writing myown lyrics.

 Talented & Gifted, w/ ADHD, & high aptitude in problem solving, I was groomed, and  college prepped for a bright  promising future as one of scientist youngest laboratory techies. Coupled with 10+ years Training In all Qualified Art Forms (within an accredited institutions), Expertise/Genre Style examples: Contemporary, Surreal, all ranges of Cartooning, & reimagining.  California offered tons of opportunities, experience in front of and behind the motion camera lens.  

  I am an Empathic, Cancerian, Realist, a free thinker, and I guess u could say avid gamer  artistically inclined genius with a  creative spirit.  On my free time I enjoy blogging (drogging drunk blogging), a good action film, and being with friends & family.  Although I have always lived a typical city life, I'm well inclined with my surroundings; I do harbor internal urges to live a much simpler, natural, 'Off the grid', existence. I admire, respect, and observe all creeds, races Coltures & customs, and one day would love to see in person exsiting international Monuments, tour a Space Station, collaborate on the creation of a video game  of my design, and MOSTLY adding my influential energy,  as to become apart of mankind's detrimental positive elevolutionary changings.
