Episode 31: 🎙️ Rebelling with Pride: Identity, Healing, and Being Seen 🌈
Description
In Joyful Rebellion 2025 Episode 3, the STEAM Box youth from Highlander Charter School welcome powerful mental health advocate Sandra Victorino to the mic. Together, they confront a world that too often devalues people based on their race, identity, or sexuality—and they push back with honesty, resilience, and a little righteous rage.
Sandra introduces the youth to EMDR therapy as a powerful tool for healing trauma. The group reflects on the most recent Joyful Rebellion event, and the painful truth about being treated as less than human—especially when your skin is dark.
This episode is about identity, joy, pain, power, and rebellion. It’s also a reminder: healing is radical. Being yourself is resistance. And you are not alone.
Trigger Warning: Topics include racism, identity-based trauma, and discrimination.
