Grey Armstrong
is an artist and educator whose work focuses on unpacking unconscious bias, cross-cultural communication, and most importantly… compassion. As a minority lottery winner, he realized quickly that if the world was going to understand people like him, he’d need to be the one to explain it. Through events across the world, a blog with world wide readership, and an ability to bring hard topics back down to earth, Grey is always striving towards creating an impact and understanding.

He is the founder of the popular blog and website Obsidian Tea, which explores themes of the Black experience and culture, Anti-racism Praxis, developing cultural competency and the evolving relationship between Black and white Americans in the United States from the trans Atlantic slave trade onwards.
Grey loves teaching, tea, blues and of course cats.
