Isaac Trussoni

My name is Isaac Trussoni and I practice and work in Restorative Justice at the YWCA of Madison. I have been in Madison since 2015 when I came to attend UW-Madison. I have a passion for music, culture, and discussions around social ecology. This is what drew me into studying Human Development and Family Studies before moving onto African American Studies in graduate school. I especially love to imagine ways Hip Hop can be continuously used as a revolutionary tool while also exploring the barriers both natural and artificial to that goal. 

Growing up in rural Wisconsin made me aware of my identity very early on and helped shape my perspective on racial experiences. I practice Restorative Justice through expanding my perspectives and committing to change and philosophy that centers the wellbeing of people in both practical and conceptual ways. I hope to continue my practice of Restorative Justice while also imagining ways to expand into the intersections of Hip Hop and Restorative Justice.
