Meet Our Advocacy Manager, Janaira

Janaira | she/her

Janaira is no longer a team member here at Imagine Black. Her presence and hard work will continue to have an impact on the organization moving forward.

Janaira was born and raised in vibrant Harlem, New York to Dominican immigrants. She earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science at Wheaton College Massachusetts. She loves and lives for talking politics while sitting on the stoop. 

Janaira believes that PAALF is a space where she can celebrate the personal as political through critical pedagogy, policy work, and dope cultural organizing tactics. 

When Janaira gets a seat at the table, she brings a handy frame to shift angles and scales and see how the issue at hand intersects with other issues not being addressed.
