My name is Quianna Leftwich. I am a student at William Paterson. As a black girl growing up in a predominately white high school, I often was excluded. I had to work extremely hard to get to where I am today, between battling racism in my life and living in an abusive household I am still fighting to build my future. My life has not been easy, but I am doing the best I can to build my future. Through my art, I was able to find a voice in a world that restricts it, yet there is no distance between my voice and the sun. I was able to find the light that encourages me to keep going. "Love is a universal language. Love is a cosmic dance, an orbit between two people, a sharing of one soul: A single thought. A single person: you." -Quianna L
