My name is Adebayo Chris Katiiti (He/Him/THEY/Mwami/ Sebo) Founder raricanow, leader of stonewall Canada, international human rights activist, Front line 2SLGBTIQ activist who lead to cancellation of Pride Festival society after the demand to Un-invite police and military in Pride was denied by the organizer and a call to center voices of QTBIPOC folks in Pride. Which lead to the birth of Stonewall Blacktranslivesmatter movement
“Stonewall is not a pride festival. It’s not a week in June for people to party. Our community needs ongoing support, ongoing care, and ongoing love. We are faced with devastating experiences that could absolutely break us apart.” It is the responsibility of Stonewall to contest this. Says Adebayo Chris Katiiti
I am committed to reclamation of QTBIPOC spaces and being an advocate for inclusion and centering voices of marginalized folks who are always left on the margin. In 2017 Created a documentary to highlight the unique psychosocial needs and socio-cultural complexities, of LGBTQ refugees in Canada.
In my work it is clear that individuals relate well to me because of our similar life experiences and the best outcomes are developed through a therapeutic relationship.
