She is a scholar-activist and constantly looking for any creative strategies that allow us to create the world we want to live in. Her academic works combine women of color and decolonial feminisms, while her focus remains on transformative justice and actively combating structural inequities.Our conversation begins with Xhercis explaining how she took control of her own life, education, and grabbed her future by the reins.
