“Having this culture repeat itself was numbing in a way. But it also was reaffirming strangely in that this work is what needs to be done, so it kind of motivated me to press harder into ‘Break the Boxes’ and to pour myself even more into it and get partnerships with schools," says Azmera Hammouri-Davis. She thought sit-ins were not enough so she began to work at a non-profit called Leveling the Playing Field for Children as a way to channel her anger into empowering youth. Azmera is one of six students profiled in Annenberg Media's student diversity project. •••••• Reported by catmclarknews Photographed by maraltavit #diversity #usc #student #ascj #fighton✌️
