Three Token Brown Girls

We, Sammie and Erica, are two strong and outspoken women of color who have created this space for all oppressed communities. We hold space for each silenced voice to come sit with us to complete our “Three.”

We are incredibly dedicated and passionate about educating allies and uplifting marginalized voices. We do this by providing spaces where people who are ignored can share their experiences, struggles, joy, and stories safely, without being spoken over or silenced.

Our goal is to bring communities together by providing education about topics that are too often pushed aside or overlooked. We work hard to be open and honest about the harsh realities of the world and we hope to be a bright light in times of darkness.

Please join us on our journey of learning, unpacking, and growing.

If I love you, I have to make you conscious of the things you do not see.

Sammie

Sammie Lewis, a powerful and big hearted Pakistani & Indian woman, is incredibly passionate about intersectional feminism and has used her voice to speak up on behalf of so many. Before creating 'Three Token Brown Girls', Sammie held admin positions in various online groups aimed at supporting parents and caretakers in raising intersectional feminist kids and developing inclusive families. When Sammie isn't fighting for inclusivity and speaking out about injustice, she's talking beauty and makeup as a professional makeup artist. Being the mother of two black sons is something that has impacted the way she thinks about oppression and impacts her world daily. Sammie grew up in Miami, Florida but now lives on the beautiful islands of Trinidad and Tobago with her husband and two sons.

Erica

Erica Morales, a New York native born and raised in Brooklyn, currently lives in the Bronx with her partner and three incredible children. As an Afro-latina, Erica knows all too well about anti-blackness in Latinx communities and spends a lot of time fighting against it, reminding people that Black folks and Indigenous folks are part of these communities too and that their voices deserve to be heard. A big reason that Erica began learning and becoming interested in social justice was having children and realizing that it was her responsibility to raise the next generation and that meant empowering and educating them, and herself. When Erica isn't busy educating about colorism, racism, and misogyny, she is leading a fierce Girl Scout troop and building young leaders for the future.
