Collective Revolution Meets Chaos

The Collective: After Dark with Tee

Is there ever a time that chaos and destruction are good? We ask this question and more.

Tee (she/her) is a queer poet, born and raised in Los Angeles, California. Her love of poetry is one of her earliest memories. Words have always found her when she needed them most. Tee is a member of The West Hollywood Slam Team, and plays Chaos in the cast of The Poetry Brothel LA, and continues to expand her reach within the community.

Listen in on The Collective for poetry and more, this Sunday on @kqbhla, 3-4pm PST, on 101.5fm in Los Angeles area, world wide on kqbhla.com, or nationwide on the LPFM La app.

We are all apart of the collective. It is not a special group or community out of anyone’s reach. The trees, the earth, the plants, the insects, the animals, and humans are all apart of the collective. We each have something to give to the world and our communities around us. It’s in knowing how to care for the ones we love, the air we breathe, the water we drink, and the food we eat. It is all self-care. Community care is self-care. And together we are more than community, we are like the stars singing in the sky. We are music and our voices are the hum of the universe. Because we are of the earth and things of stars, and so is every thing on this earth.


We all live here and here is everywhere, anywhere, somewhere, and nowhere. Here is ‘this place,’ and no matter where you are you are always here. You ‘are’ here. This place is every single one of us, so let’s make it the best of all of us we can.


I have started my life over and over again like a rough draft. And each time I made progress until I finally created a life that I love.

Have you ever started over again?

The Collective by Gina Duran
The Collective focuses on everyday people to share the stories of those who do work for our communities and inspire love, connection, and empowerment. It is about those who bring us together to care for the impoverished, those with disabilities, immigrants, disadvantaged youth, and the planet. It is a space for conversation and an exchange of ideas with those who work to spread communal love in a collective effort to bring us all together as One.
