Lisa Liang

Shuang (Lisa) Liang is a recent graduate from Mount Holyoke College, where she pursued a degree in International Relations and a minor in History. She hopes to further her education in law and is currently applying to law schools. During her time in college, she wrote for Chinosity.com and interned at Zhonglun Law Firm back home in China, in an attempt to understand and promote the importance of unbiased, fair representation for all individuals. In her free time, she enjoys reading, re-watching favorite shows or movies, and is an avid BTS fan.

At WITNESS, the idea of changing the current narrative society holds towards incarcerated people: making them seen, giving them agency over their own stories and experiences, allowing them to claim their own personhood, is something Lisa deeply believes in and wants to be a part of. She is honored to join the organization and hopes to contribute to this social advocacy through her time here.
