Roame jasmin

roame jasmin is the Education Director for Shareable, and an Assistant Adjunct professor in the Black Studies department at Portland State University. In Philadelphia, roame was raised to love the muck and has done so by combining really funky existential philosophies with agroecological practices. As a Mellon Mays Research Fellow, roame would often move in between academic spaces and back alleyways performing poetry and wrestling with philosophies surrounding collective suffering, fugitivity, interiority and other offbeat ideologies on identity. After earning their B.A. from Oakwood University, they then hoofed it out to New York University to earn their M.A. in Social Thought and Humanities - where they got lost a ton, and in turn studied dispossession with focuses in performance, sexuality, gender and duality. Currently, they pass the time by practicing herbal bioregionalism, listening to a ton of punk, watching the clouds, and growing a small garden out in the midwest.
