Tshaka Barrows

Mr. Barrows moved to California shortly after graduationg from the University of Wisconsin at Madison in 2001. While in school, he was very involved in campus organizing. Through his work with the United States Student Association, as the Chair of the National People of Color Student Coalition, he worked with fellow students to create campaigns, actions and rallies at the university, state, and national level. His experiences working with these organizations, particularly on an anti-racial profiling campaign, provided him a new perspective. He believes the overwhelming problems of today can be changed, and he is determined to help ensure this change comes in a way that will force the current realities into distant glimmers of a horrific past. He looks forward to working with all who are down to continue raising a ruckus in the name of creating a better tomorrow.
