Where Roses Grow: Rooted Reflections
Where Roses Grow- A podcast spotlighting the roses in Coast Salish land (South King County). The roses heard in this project, are those who in the past or presently engage with anti-racism work and community organizing.

Where Roses Grow is hosted by Erandy Flores-Bucio (she/her) who belongs to the P’urhépecha diaspora community in South King County, an Indigenous community originally from what is now known as Michoacán, Mexico. Raised in Muckleshoot land (Auburn, WA), she grew up passionate about immigrant youth advocacy and bringing an anti-racist lens to educational spaces. This would lead her to co-found Auburn Youth United and create the podcast, Where Roses Grow: Rooted Reflections, bringing forward community-led calls for social justice. Erandi is a current member of the collective Ireta P’urhépecha, where she practices cultural preservation, grows Indigenous feminist spaces, and strengthens her connection to Nana Echeri (mother earth). Since graduating from the University of Washington – Tacoma in 2024 with a degree in Ethnic, Gender, and Labor Studies, her journey continues to search for how to support BIPOC communities in cultivating spaces for collective healing.
