In this episode, we have the pleasure of speaking with Deyci Carrillo Lopez(@puravida510), a local Oakland poet who has been chosen by Rupi Kaur to open for her world tour in Oakland. Deyci shares her journey of reclaiming her power through poetry and how it intersects with her identity as an undocumented, proud Oakland native from Guanajuato. We discuss the importance of art as a form of political expression, her collaboration process to bring her latest collection "Entre la Miel y el Fuego" to life, and advice for young women looking to reclaim their power through words and poetry. Tune in to hear about Deyci's upcoming projects and where to find her next.
