[C.Tona]

Hello,

My name is Cualnezca Tonantzin Miranda (she/her/hers) and I come from the Yaqui, Blackfoot and Otomi Tribal Nations, currently I reside in the original homeland of the Shingle Springs band of Miwok Indians, also known as North Sacramento. I am the Associate Director of the Native American Resource Center at American River College. The current issues I’m interested in delving into are restorative justice practices through an Indigenous healing lens, dismantling the school to prison pipeline, missing and murdered Indigenous women and voter suppression.

A random fact about me is that I’ve started taking piano lessons, so wish me luck:)

I look forward to meeting you all and sharing space with you, thank you!
