We’re so excited to introduce one of the two newest members of our collective — Sangam ‘Alopeke! Sangam’s greatest passion is health justice, with a particular focus on the impact of race and disability. Their lived experiences have underlined the profound inequities in these areas and informed their approach to disability rights. They have worked as a Deaf Advocate for the Disability Policy Consortium in Boston, where their particular focus was addressing barriers to accessing healthcare for the deaf and hard-of-hearing. For over a decade, they have been a peer educator in radical community health. As the current Ombudsperson for the Sex Worker Outreach Project, they approach conflict mediation with special attention to the underlying power dynamics of those involved.
