Bakari Jones (any/all pronouns) is a consultant, speaker, and producer centering Black, women, LGBTQ and gender expansive communities. Bakari is currently living and leading on Piscataway land in Baltimore, Maryland.
Bakari's work is guided by Black Feminist Thought, Black Liberation Theology, and ‘Black joy’ as a mantra of resistance.
Bakari earned a Bachelors degree in African American studies from Temple University, Masters degree in Business Administration from Loyola University Maryland, certificate in Front End Web Development, and a certificate in Somatic Embodiment & Regulation Strategies.
Bakari is most proud of serving as an AmeriCorps V.I.S.T.A. in post-Katrina New Orleans, supporting communications strategy for Senator Lola Smallwood-Cuevas' campaign, and creating Lor Rube - a community build of a Rube Goldberg machine highlighting the disparities experienced by Black, queer, and trans youth in Baltimore city attempting to access city services.
As their work continues to evolve, Bakari is most curious about the insights that can be gleaned from those with intersectional identities.
