Cinnamongirl Taylor Sky

My name is Taylor Sky, and I’m from West Oakland. Activism has always been a part of my life, even before I fully understood what it meant. From a young age, I found myself participating in community efforts — feeding the homeless, speaking at City Hall, and witnessing firsthand the power of using your voice to create change. These experiences shaped my understanding of the impact a community can have when it comes together for a cause.

Growing up, my connection to activism was further strengthened by my mother’s nonprofit work, the activism within my family, and Oakland’s rich culture of advocacy. I’ve also participated in abortion rights protests in Washington, D.C., alongside my mom, deepening my commitment to standing up for what I believe in.

My mom’s work as a trained doula has given me valuable insight into body positivity, body education, and the importance of understanding and protecting personal rights. These lessons have fueled my passion for advocating for reproductive rights and empowering others through knowledge.

For the past three years, I’ve been a proud member of Cinnamon Girl, where I’ve continued to grow, learn, and connect with other young women dedicated to leadership and social impact.
