Raquel Cepeda Biography

Raquel Cepeda is one of the most popular and richest Author who was born on June 9, 1973 in Harlem, New York, United States.

As a student, Cepeda frequently found herself at odds with the authority figures at the schools she attended. This contentiousness stemmed from Cepeda’s belief that the system mis-educated students about American history and their own respective ethnic histories as well. Like many other young and disenfranchised people, Cepeda found community in 1980s hip-hop culture. It was hip-hop, she says, that fueled her passion for exploring the issues of race, identity, and social justice through journalism, writing, and filmmaking.

In 2001, Cepeda was named editor-in-chief of Russell Simmons’ OneWorld magazine. She was then 28 years old. The San Francisco Chronicle praised Cepeda’s stewardship as follows: “Finally, there’s another option for the intelligent urban mind, and much like the woman at its helm, OneWorld magazine is bold and refreshing.”
