ABOUT Eboni Farmer

I'm a senior at Howard University and  I am so ready to the graduate. I  don't  own a television so I don't watch it too often. I think it has a lot to do with the fact that I didn't have a television in my room growing up. My brother and I were forced to fight over the remote in the living room. Whenever I did watch television I was probably watching CNN, now I just get all of my news on the internet.

When I’m Not in Front of the Tube

I am a student, journalist, and an athlete. All of my free time is spent playing lacrosse.  The rest of the time I'm in class, studying, or working on a story. Despite everything that has happened to the journalism industry I still have hope that there is place for me and my writing. I'm interning at The Root and I'm looking forward to blogging on Their Eyes Were Watching.
