TOKALA for @voguemagazine: Atlakatl Ce Tochtli Orozco Tokala is a photo & video series highlighting the intersectionality of climate and social justice centering BIPOC youth organizers and the stories of the regions/communities they are fighting for. Tokala is telling stories that actually matter in the most beautiful ways and I am honored to be included the Tokala photo and video series <3 Because of these inspiring creatives; myself and others alike are experiencing narrative justice through telling the story of the El Sereno housing actions to reclaim and rebuild our community. Also I am so grateful to be featured next to Danielle Frank who has an incredible life story as a water protector and youth coordinator from Hoopa Valley Reservation.💚 “In November 2020, 23-year-old activist and organizer Atlakatl Ce Tochtli Orozco was among hundreds of housing rights activists who faced off against officers from the California High Patrol (CHP) and the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) in El Sereno, California. Vacant Caltrans-owned homes were being occupied as a protest against housing inaccessibility in the area—and sit-ins quickly turned violent as officers began forcibly removing organizers from the properties.” Link to the full story by @chrisjallaire is my bio🐾 💋encouraging you 🪢 to support the work and calls to action of these local environmental and housing justice groups: @reclaiminghomes @elserenocommunitylandtrust @coyotl.macehualli @eastsideleads @eastsidecafela @regenerativecollective @elserenocommunitygarden @africatownlandtrust @mas4la @bvclt.la @reclaimandrebuildourcommunity @nela.alliance @savepoppypeak @natives4nature @1plasticlife @heroesofelephanthill @wetheunhoused @lacanetwork_official @ccedla @streetwatchla @protectpuvungna Organizer: @water.person.water.person Photo: @_carlosjaramillo_ Creative Direction & Style: @marcusjcorrea Text: @chrisjallaire Editor: @olivebitties Hair & MU: @carlacsperez Regalia made by: Lazaro Arvizu of @xipetotecofficial Style Assist: @extravaganzahira Producer: @kaylahbrathwaite Production Manager: @landbackbaddie
