This year I’m a junior, and I decided to take the journalism class because I enjoy writing, especially writing stories about real life situations. Im originally from Maryland, but I’ve lived overseas most of my life, and only recently did I move back to the states. Being an African American women, I’m hoping to be able to bring more diversity to the team, and be able to write about issues relevant I fell are relevant to the black community. I feel that in the quest to end racism, it’s important to hear the perspectives of a community different from yours. I’m looking forward to the upcoming year, and can’t wait to begin writing!
