Welcome , My name is Okesha ,aka (KedasoL) ,when on stage. I am a Poet, Artist, an overall creator . The last few years I’ve allowed myself to explore what it means to be a Young Black Community Advocate . From Mental Illness to lived experience , from being a childhood victim of abuse to enduring a abusive relationship that was rooted with trauma , self sabotage, suicidal attempts and then some .I did and still do go through the motions . I also have strengthened my Sight towards how I can turn pain into Creativity with a purpose by combining things I love to do and things that need to be done that effect my everyday life . I call these things Passion Projects . I call these things obligations may it be community events ,facilitating different meetings ,create or getting involved with, storytelling , being a guest on podcast live shows ,supporting small businesses, knocking on the doors of policy makers and paving ways to sit at “their’ table I have done it but I have not done it All and I cant do any of this alone which is Why REDISFORLOVE was born
