Gigi Khanyezi

By integrating theology, sociology, and psychology, Gigi has devoted her life to healing, equipping, and mobilizing people to seek racial justice. She is the Founder/Director of Jesus and Justice, where she is a writer, artist, activist, and speaker and can be found at www.GigiOnline.org. She received her M.Div. with an emphasis in Intercultural Ministry and her B.A.in Sociology and African & African American Studies.. After growing up in E. Oakland and 30 years in the US as a Latina woman of color activist, Gigi relocated to Soweto, South Africa for ten years, the most racially polarized country in the world, where she was considered WHITE. It was the greatest identity crisis of her life and became the most important training ground. While in South Africa she fostered and adopted two very precious little boys whom she named Jericho and Judah.

This is a tribute to the enduring struggle of intergenerational racial trauma and the extraordinary resilience that has accompanied it.

The reality is, centuries and generations of witnessing Black flesh disemboweled in our streets has socialized our conscience to accept it as normal.
