Thank you for running for office Talauna Reed! You are a person amongst politricksters. You have the lived experience and scholarship of being Black, a Woman and a formerly UNhoused Poverty Scholar living here on Squaxin land in so-called Olympia, WA.. That’s the scholarship we need for positive change at the local level. We don’t need more about us without us.

I witness the anti-Black racism, classism, misogynoir you experience by merely existing, and running for seat 5 of olympia city council. Thank you for speaking out and organizing to end racism. The violent racism and Poor people hating classism is what is criminal.

Thank you for demanding accountability of police, local government and first responders.

Talauna Reed running for office is Justice for Yvonne McDonald. Thank you Talauna Reed for your persistence.
