The Founder
Miriame is French, Tunisian and American. She grew up in a community of human rights activists in France. After earning a MA in International Economics, she worked at the French National Research Institute and she co-designed and co-facilitated a dialogue on energy policies.
She founded Speaking Justice to help organizations and people build the skills needed to have connectful and impactful conversations on race and other subjects viewed as divisive.
As an elementary teacher she focuses on Social and Emotional Learning and Anti Racism. She created the Five Habits of Speaking Justice as a way to support her students in learning how to use their voice in uncomfortable and triggering situations.
