Beautiful People: Kinsale Hueston Uplifts Voices of Women

Kinsale Hueston is a student at Yale University, recognized widely for her work as a poet, much of which orbits around her personal and familial history as a Navajo woman. She has received three National Scholastic Gold Medals for poetry, the Yale Young Native Storytellers Award for Spoken Word/Storytelling, and in 2017-2018 was named the National Student Poet. In 2019, Time Magazine named Hueston one of the “34 Optimists Changing How We See the World,” and to converse with the poet is to understand why immediately: this 19-year-old sees true beauty in community, in sharing her own point of view through art and conversation, and in welcoming in the perspectives of others. This month, she’ll launch the Changing Womxn Collective, a digital literary platform that exists to uplift the marginalized voices of women, femmes, and nonbinary people of color—a platform she longed for prior to her own recognition.
