From Whittier to National Advocacy: John Bonifaz ’84 and a Lifelong Commitment to Democratic Justice

WFS archivist and longtime teacher Terry Maguire recently enjoyed tea and conversation with alumnus John Bonifaz ’84—reconnecting over shared history and a lifelong commitment to purpose-driven work.
Even during his time at WFS, including as a writer for The Whittier Miscellany, John was known for his passion for progressive causes. That commitment has shaped an extraordinary career in law and advocacy. Today, he is the co-founder and president of Free Speech For People, a national, nonpartisan organization that challenges big money in politics, confronts corruption in government, defends free and fair elections, and advances political equality and democratic self-government.
