Pierce Delahunt (they)
My Sex Bio Studio Facilitator

Pierce has worked with CISV, Youth Empowered Action, SMASH Academy, and other education programs of various degrees of activism since 2010. They teach social-emotional learning, activism, social justice, and Leftist economics (or as they call it: economics).

Pierce works from the frame that individualist social-emotional learning is insufficient: Our capacity to have fulfilling lives and relationships cannot come at the expense of other communities’ abilities to do the same. If our peace, love, light, and whole-child education movements do not address systemic injustice, then they are none of those things.
