Dr. Amanda Kemp, also known as Aminata Desert Rose Plant Walker Fire Woman, graduated from Stanford University after surviving the NYC foster care system. She is the founder and producer of the Mother Tree community and the Mother Tree Network podcast, which is in the top 10% of all podcasts globally. Aminata is the Amazon best-selling author of Stop Being Afraid: 5 Steps to Transform your Conversations about Racism, a workbook for individuals who want to be more effective in racial justice. Her memoir, "Say the Wrong Thing: Stories and Strategies for Racial Justice and Authentic Community", is used in high schools and colleges throughout the U.S. She is also a Visiting Scholar at Franklin & Marshall College and the winner of the 2018 Advoz Dignity in Dialogue Award. In her capacity as a Board member of the Lancaster NAACP, performing artist, and master teacher, she has helped over 30,000 people have more open-hearted conversations about racism and compassionate community. In 2021 Dr. Amanda had a spiritual awakening where she received her new names from an ancestor and received the message to stop everything and that the trees on her land wanted to adopt her. Over the course of a two-year learning journey, she has been working with deeper truths underneath social justice, journeying with plants and fungi, and has since integrated the wisdom from trees into her Mother Tree Network podcast and community and continues her deep apprenticeship to the Earth and the feminine divine. She can now be found teaching, and creating theatre, poetry, and ritual via Theatre for Transformation and inside the Mother Tree Community.
