I'm Elijah Jones journalist, writer, activist, and musician in my free time. I was born and raised in Detroit, US. My biggest inspirations are Nelson Mandela and Martin Luther King Jr. I grew up seeing and reading what they've done for black people. It significantly impacted my life and mentality and motivated me to keep fighting for a more just and equal world where people can coexist with all their differences.
In this column, you will see my impressions of being a black person in the US and what's happening in the black community.
"Darkness can not drive out darkness: only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate: only love can do that." – Martin Luther King Jr.
