About Brandon Running Bear Harrell:

Running Bear “B” Harrell (IG: @decolonizedmeateater) is a climate resiliency planner, permaculturalist, archery instructor, and youth conservation leader of Afro-Indigenous ancestry. Though deeply rooted in what is now referred to as California and New Mexico, his expertise in community and environmental planning has enabled him to consult on major habitat restoration and climate adaptation projects as far as Taiwan, Portugal, Nicaragua, Cuba, Turkey, and Kenya.

Running Bear is also known as the 'Decolonized Meateater' on Instagram, where he shares his commitment to decolonize the Western hunt and reconnect Black and Indigenous communities with their traditional food pathways.
