\u201cDavid\u00a0can\u00a0beat Goliath,\u201d says Rev. Shaw. \u201cAs long as I can breathe, as long as I can stand, I want to help my fellow man by arming them with the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n

One of Shaw\u2019s heroes growing up was Martin Luther King Jr. He not only inspired Shaw to become a minister but also to dedicate his life to service to the community.<\/p>\n

In the belief that many problems between the African American community and law enforcement could be resolved if there were more Black officers, he became an L.A. County Sheriff\u2019s deputy, where he worked with the Sherriff\u2019s Athletic League and in community relations.<\/p>\n

But it was his work in crime prevention that opened his eyes to root causes of the problems in his community – what he describes as \u201csystemic abuse<\/a>\u00a0and institutional racism that pervades the psychiatric-behavioral industry.\u201d<\/p>\n

Shaw, who recently founded the\u00a0CCHR Task Force Against Institutional Racism in the Psychiatric Industry<\/a>, is\u00a0dedicated to exposing and combating the abuse of people of color and minorities in the field of mental health.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy passion is to elevate people, especially in the African-American community, and to help them know the traps that are out there,\u201d says Shaw. \u201cThere\u2019s an old saying that if you saw a trap coming, it wouldn\u2019t be a trap.\u201d<\/p>\n

Citizens Commission on Human Rights<\/a>\u00a0is a nonprofit charitable mental health watchdog established by the Church of Scientology in 1969, dedicated to eradicating psychiatric abuses and ensuring patient protections.<\/p>\n

Scientology Network has been viewed in 240 countries and territories worldwide in 17 languages. Broadcast from\u00a0Scientology Media Productions<\/a>, the Church\u2019s global media center in Los Angeles, the Scientology Network is available on DIRECTV Channel 320 and can be streamed on\u00a0Scientology.tv<\/a>,\u00a0mobile apps<\/a>\u00a0and via the Roku, Amazon Fire and Apple TV platforms.<\/p>\n
