We’re excited to announce our 4th Featured Artist who may be young, but don’t under estimate her. This young woman doesn’t let her age or high school status prevent her from diving into journalism, activism, and video production.

Logan Russell is currently a high school student in Nokesville, VA, but her talents and dedication for video production extend beyond the classroom. Every since elementary school, Russell was destined to be a journalist. Armed with a camera and fire for fairness, she fights to expose the mistreatment of others, convey the experiences of minority groups, and highlight the kindness of people in the community. Russell insists on creating a just world for future generations by giving everyone a voice to be heard.

Logan Russell is currently the host and executive producer of The Mocha Princess Media Show, a weekly program that spotlights local, national, and international professionals who are creating change in their communities. Her most recent guest was Benita Fitzgerald Mosley, 1984 Olympic Gold Metalist and CEO of Laureus Sport for Good Foundation USA. You can view all the episodes on Instragram @mochaprincessmedia.

In 2015, her videography work was featured in Cutz: Black Men in Focus. The exhibit was a combination of photography and video that investigated current events and social stigmas surrounding the black male identity through the lens of the African American barber shop. The exhibit was displayed at Gallery CA in Baltimore, MD from Oct 2nd-30th.

In 2015, Russell was also the executive producer for The Power to Make a Difference anti-bullying campaign. The PSA was a 3 part video project on anti-bullying for middle schoolers. The video has been featured in the Prince William County School System and at The Amphitheater at Chester Park in Chester, PA.
