About Keisa Reynolds
Keisa Reynolds, also known as K. and Sula Found, is a writer, performer, and community educator from Richmond, California. A teaching artist since age 14, Keisa believes that art and storytelling allows us to explore challenging topics, build self-compassion and deepen how we relate to others — all of which moves us closer to liberation.
Most recently, Keisa wrote about their journey into non-binary parenthood for the anthology . Their creative writing and photography have been featured in collaborative zines since 2009. One of the last users on Livejournal, Keisa’s writing echoes the ethos of the online diary era, offering an homage to giving our past selves some grace.
