Harsha Walia is a social justice activist and journalist who is best known for co-founding the Vancouver chapter of No One Is Illegal.〔(''Goodreads'' Author Biography: Harsha Walia )〕 Walia's writings have appeared in over fifty journals, anthologies, and magazines, including ''Briarpatch, Canadian Dimension, Feministing, FUSE Magazine, Left Turn, People of Color Organize, Rabble, Z Magazine'', The Winter We Danced, and others. She has contributed essays to academic journals including ''Race and Class'', as well as chapters in the anthologies ''Power of Youth: Youth and community-led activism in Canada; Beautiful Trouble: A Toolbox for Revolution;'' and ''Organize!

Walia has made a number of presentations to the United Nations on social and economic justice issues and is a commentator and speaker at conferences, campuses, and media outlets across North America.
