Today's show was a special one. We were joined by Tasreen
Khamisa - a mother of three, a faithful sister and a woman with a mission. The
day of this interview's recording was January 21, 2016 which marked the 21st
anniversary of her brother Tariq's murder. After Tariq was senselessly gunned
down in a gang-related ambush while he was delivering pizzas in North Park San
Diego, their father Azim Khamisa founded TKF, The Tariq Khamisa Foundation.
This foundation - which stops youth violence through education, mentorship and
restorative practice programs - has impacted millions of children worldwide
teaching the principles of nonviolence and peace. Tasreen has guided the
foundation as Executive Director two times - 1998 to 2003 and December 2014 to
the present. Listen in as she speaks about her brother, the foundation and a
purpose that drives her.
