André “Dragon” Little

Born in Mountain View, California, Dragon (aka André Pardee Little) is a highly-melanated, male-bodied, autochthonous student of history, nature, art, social justice, and holistic health. His pedigree has traceable roots as long as pre-colonial America and his pride is as wide as all the diverse skin and experience of every continent that his ancestors still express through this being. With deep interests in Gnosticism, esoterica, indigenous and dharma studies, Dragon is completing his MASC degree this ‘19/20 school year. He has taught in K-12 classrooms, organized and hosted community “edutainment” open mic performance art events, led Occupy Oakland street protests, appeared in Time Magazine, facilitated housing for traveling and houseless activists, provided free massage and wellness to West Oakland communities, managed housing and mental healthcare for autistic and developmentally delayed youth, and is progressing towards a professorship of humanities and world religions.
