Zerandrian Morris

Zerandrian Morris is a gender non-binary individual who finds inspiration in non-traditional and socially-rejected spaces. As a trainer and facilitator, Zerandrian focuses on social justice movement building, identities, privilege, reframing masculinities, queer theory, non-binary trans* identities, gender and sexuality norms, and youth leadership development.

Zerandrian is currently the full-time Lead Trainer in the NYC Department of Health & Mental Hygiene’s Center for Health Equity division. There, Zerandrian has co-designed and facilitates the Race to Justice Core Workshop with the goal of building a shared analysis of racial equity and social justice across the agency via transforming current structures that work from a white supremacist patriarchal framework to a racially, equitable framework by centering racism as the largest driver of health inequities.

She has served as a consultant and advisor to organizations including The United Nations, NIDA/NIH, The Centers for Disease Control & Prevention, The Brown Boi Project, and the Philadelphia Department of Behavioral Health.
