Kyra Assibey Bonsu
My time living and working in India, Spain, LATAM, and Brooklyn in fields ranging from education, digital marketing, and community building taught me that art. As an urbanist, I love creating safe spaces with a socio-anthropological mindset in order to embolden those stories we do not hear in mainstream media. I have been able to facilitate this work through my podcast around immigrants and emigrants from across the globe called @nocountryformoving, being a past original board member for nonprofit, BlackSpace as well as writing content that aligns itself with identity, her/history.
