\\nDr. Richelle Brooks is the co-founder of the Los Angeles chapter of The Debt Collective, founder of ReTHINK It, an organization dedicated to addressing antiblackness through education and mutual aid, a full-time educator, and a single momma of two children. As a first-generation college graduate, formerly houseless person, and formerly incarcerated individual, she has learned to navigate many of the most oppressive and racist systems and institutions, and has made it her life-work to help others do the same, while simultaneously working to dismantle these systems that perpetuate inequities.
