Secunda Joseph

Secunda Joseph,  is a devoted and conscientious activist-organizer, culture-worker and storyteller based in Houston, TX. She firmly promotes organic, community-based approaches to solidarity work and activism, and shirks at those who ignore the capacities of those for whom they advocate. Although her activist-organizer work broadly focuses on humanitarian rights and concerns, she utilizes Black abolitionist principles and concepts to create, build, and work beside vulnerable communities toward more liberating life options for future generations born to inequity. A 2023  recipient of the Rothko Chapels Oscar Romero Humanitarian award. Joseph is former director and co-founder of Imaginor/BLMHTX. In addition to mutual aid work, training, consulting and organizing around justice. Joseph delivers multimedia interventions and mind/body strategies toward liberatory existence. Inspired by the anti-lynching passion of her ancestor-mentor, Ida B. Wells, she hosts radio and curates online platforms & podcasts . The latest being Imagine A World, The Relay & Kinfolk & Convos. Through this work, she highlights Black radical traditions for striving and imagining new worlds in which “we can all breathe,” Joseph is also a Kemetic Yoga practitioner and offers intergenerational classes to adults, children, and seniors alike, realizing that her community’s healing work must be essential to her activism.
