I'm deeply honored to be joining the Advisory Board of Donkeysaddle Projects, an incredible organization that I've had the pleasure of working with in the past as an actor. DSP's mission is to use art/storytelling for communal political education, to challenge injustice in all of its manifestations, to connect movements, and to nurture radical imagination. The values at the heart of DSP’s work are: integrity, vulnerability, humility, love, respect, accessibility, connection, movement, and being unafraid of ignorance or risk. It is ​a community who believes that storytelling and art play a crucial role in movements building towards liberation. Learn more at ​https://www.donkeysaddle.org/

On Saturday, March 24th, I will be running in the Gaza 5K at Prospect Park. The run/walk is sponsored by UNRWA USA which supports the work of UNRWA, the UN organization in charge of aiding Palestinian refugees. Proceeds from the race will go towards UNRWA's Community Mental Health Programme (CMHP) to help empower vulnerable refugees in Gaza, especially children, to better cope with the extreme challenges they face on a daily basis. I'm excited to be running my first 5K in 10 years for such an amazing cause.
