Ezra Buck (he/him)

Ezra was born and raised in Spokane, Washington. His family are registered members of the Morongo band of Mission Indians, native to Southern California. They also belong to the Chetco Nation of Southern Coastal Oregon, which is not a federally recognized tribe. Since he was young, his elders have instilled in him the importance of cultural protection and perpetuity as a means to liberation. His ultimate goal is to ensure that Black and Native students in particular do not have the reservation/boarding school experience that many members of his family endured. In his free time, he enjoys painting, kitties, and pro-wrestling.
