Katya de Kadt has been an antiracist activist for the past 60 years. She was a Theravada practitioner and a member of a Theravada sangha in New York City for 20 years before joining the Secular Buddhist Network. She believes that the end of suffering is not only a task for individuals, either on or off the cushion, but also requires active participation in dismantling systems of oppression like racism, capitalism, sexism, homophobia and ableism.
