Zainab Amadahy is an author of screenplays, nonfiction and futurist fiction, the most notable being the adequately written yet somehow cult classic “Moons of Palmares”. She is of mixed-race background that includes African American, Cherokee, Seminole, Portuguese, Amish, Pacific Islander and other trace elements (if DNA testing is accurate). Based in peri-apocalyptic Toronto, Zainab is the mother of 3 grown sons and a cat who allows her to sit on one section of the couch.
Zainab is available for workshop facilitation, talks and oracle card readings.
Zainab’s background is in activism, mentoring and community work. Her community experience is in the areas of Indigenous knowledge reclamation, curanderismo, non-profit housing, women’s services, migrant settlement and community arts. She has also worked in medical and photovoltaic technologies. 
Zainab’s writings are about healing, decolonization, self-empowerment and social justice.
“Through my work, I strive to envision a world that values and nurtures our connectivity on physical, mental, emotional and spiritual levels. ”
“My vision is one of healthy, sustainable communities that recognizes the interconnectedness and interdependence of all life, where individual wellbeing is understood to be crucial to that of the community, and community wellbeing is crucial to that of the individual, where relationships among communities contribute to globalized wellbeing.”
“I’ve had the honour of working with Elders, knowledge-keepers and healers from a variety of wisdom traditions and have been coaching, mentoring, and facilitating skills training workshops for over two decades.”
