pronouns : They, Them,Theirs
GeeXella is a Point Foundation Scholar, singer, rapper , DJ, and dreamer of liberation. They founded Duval Folx in 2018 , a dance party that was a direct response to Jacksonville at the time being a focal point for Black, Trans and GNC violence. This moment called for more than just a dance space in the South. They wanted to curate a brave and secure ecosystem for marginalized communities through dance music. They are the 2021 recipients of Jacksonville's Cultural Council Robert Arleigh White award for their dedication and commitment to using arts & culture to bring awareness to the intersecting difficulties that Queer/Trans and BIPOC communities face in the South. They currently work at the national organization BEAM ( Black Emotional and Mental Health Collective) as a Mental Health Coordinator.
