Kitanna “Golden Scopian” Pichay
Kitanna is a Gen Z First-Generation Philipino American practicing to decolonize and hold sovereign roots grown from pre-colonial Ilokano and Igorot ways.
My name originates from a well-known video game character from Mortal Kombat. My mother decided the name be chosen for me whilst watching the 1999 movie during pregnancy. She traveled often from plane flights to Mankayan bumpy roads, which leads us to theorize the reason for my symbrachydactyly. "A rare congenital hand deformity present at birth, characterized by short, webbed, or missing fingers, often with soft tissue 'nubbins'."
0.6 per 10,000 live births is the rarity stated. Although rare, I have shared the excitement of meeting folks with the similar condition throughout my life. In rare places, at rare times. This condition well known as, 'The Lucky Fin', is a reason I believe in an ability to bridge worlds and connect the gaps. From economic social classes to diverse spiritualities, I have the grace to find liberation within Unity of Our Shared Humanity.
I am dedicated to working internally to unwind and liberate my own conditioning. I find agency embracing non dualistic conformities by allowing space to unearth the conditioning we face from systemic injustice and inequality. My urgency and mission to be a part of this project is more than a calling. It is far more reaching than fate. This shared mission is to take action towards using the strength of my voice for the voiceless. To make the commitment of showing up for others stories and ensuring it shimmers more light than be kept stagnant in darkness. To be an instrument for Divine to reach Destiny. My capacity for empathy and compassion are the key reasons I have gotten this far. My relationship to the Most High and devotion to Jesus has given my path the endurance to face darkness with both eyes open.
Believing in Restorative Justice not only liberates the people involved but Our Community as a Whole. I hold strongly to embodying the belief that Together We can Unify by practicing CommUnity and holding space for each other's stories, as We are All helping bring each other home.
There, the majestic wonders of Divine Steadfast Love begin to unfold in our New Becomings.
If you would like to get to know each other more or need someone to hold space for you, please email me personally at

Kim “Great White Owl” Murillo
Kim, is a Neo-Shaman, who’s life path placed her to be a champion of restorative justice whose calling was born out of a dark night of the soul during the COVID‑19 pandemic, including two unlawful arrests that opened her eyes to how our system punishes people on the worst day of their lives. A lifelong truth‑teller and healer, she watched her own family fracture, witnessed elder abuse, and collided with a small‑town court system that felt more like a machine of punishment than a house of justice. Standing in a jail cell, she realized, “We are making criminals out of people on the worst day of their lives,” and that moment marked the beginning of her work.
Now based in Alamogordo, New Mexico, after an earlier attempt to launch “Mariam’s Refuge” in the Mimbres Valley, Kim is creating The Academy for the New Humanity to teach what it truly means to be human, accountable, and free in a society shaped by oppression. Drawing on faith, U.S. history, Paulo Freire’s Pedagogy of the Oppressed, Jungian individuation, and restorative justice, she works with incarcerated and formerly incarcerated women, and the communities around them, to imagine a 250‑year future where throwing people away becomes unthinkable and restoration becomes our way of life.
Love & Light,
Kim – Great White Owl
