Tai Simpson is a warrior and storyteller working in anti-racism education and community organizing. She calls on her non-native audience to embody “old ways” when voting, teaching, and living in the world. She is a direct descendant of Chief Redheart of the Nez Perce tribe and a tireless advocate for social justice. Tai is well-loved and supported by a four-legged, amber-eyed "Gunner." She enjoys sunshine, dogs, and wine.
