Karari Olvera is the non-binary trans femme first-born of Mexican immigrant parents. As a writer, activist, and public speaker, their art and work has focused on the uplifting of voices living in the intersections of gender, race, and ethnicity through storytelling and workshop facilitating. Karari currently serves as co-chair of United Latinx Pride and member-at-large of the National Board of the TransLatin@ Coalition. You can catch them IRL in Chicago dropping trans truth on the Hoodoisie, a live and live-streamed news show disseminating radical perspectives on culture and politics, or living their best life hosting at DURO, Boystown’s only Latinx night centering and celebrating queer/trans femmes of color of all sizes and shapes.
