Welcome back to Rising Warriors Rachael Kulei. Today I have the honor to be speaking with Sean Rayland, Founder of Red Rebel Armour. Join us as we talk about his journey as an Indigenous man in the world we live in today and intergenerational trauma. This brother is using his voice through his Streetwear designs to help inspire other Indigenous men to step up and take action in their own personal healing and to stay on the "Red Road".

Hi, my name is Sean Rayland, and I'm the founder of Red Rebel Armour. I created RRA to inspire Indigenous men to take action and overcome cycles of abuse, addiction, and inter-generational trauma. So they can reclaim their role in the community as leaders and role models.

I grew up in the inner-city of Winnipeg, Manitoba, where I witnessed and endured cycles of abuse, addiction, social injustice, crime, intergenerational trauma, and poverty. To me, this was normal, and I didn't know or realize that I was lving in a cycle of oppression and self-destruction.

It wasn't until I reconnected with my culture, learned who I was and my identity along with the history of my people that I finally became aware of the cycles I was living in. It's ironic because the destructive path I once embraced, led me to and reinforced the constructive journey I'm on today.

With that being said, RRA is a culmination of tragedy to triumph, resilience, and culture upon which we articulate through our voice, brand, and designs. All to inspire our brothers to be a higher version of themselves and reclaim their rightful place in society. 

Miigweech,

Sean Rayland
