Yung Pueblo

Diego Perez is the poet, meditator and speaker behind the pen name yung pueblo, and the author of the New York Times bestsellers Lighter and Clarity & Connection. The name yung pueblo means 'young people' and it serves to remind him of his Ecuadorian roots, his experiences in activism and that the collective of humanity is in the midst of important growth. Through writing and speaking he aims to support the healing of the individual, realising that when people release their personal burdens it helps humanity build a global peace.
