As an ethnic studies scholar, justice and liberation are some of my core values. I chose this discipline to be my academic home because of its origins in the organizing and action of Black and Brown students in the late 60s (right here in the Bay!) during the Third World Liberation Front movement, and how those radical roots inform the values and praxis of ethnic studies spaces and scholarships today. I have learning from and supported various social justice movements, including climate justice, gun control, Black Lives Matter, and the rights of the gender marginalized.
