Mich Levy is a queer woman with race and class privilege, the grand-daughter of immigrants and first-generation Californian. She was raised in a strongly-identified Jewish family that assimilated into middle-class whiteness through her childhood. She has traveled extensively and lived, studied, and worked on three continents. Mich has been active in movements to overcome exclusion and violence since the first U.S. invasion of Iraq. She has a self-designed bachelor’s degree in personal, social and systems change and a master’s degree in the politics of alternative development studies. We Tip the Balance is Mich’s way to continue learning with others how to build the world we want to live in together.
