Elijah  Green

Elijah Green

Elijah Green is a 16-year-old student at Broome Street Academy whose passion for community, racial equity, and the arts has led him to activism and service. Elijah’s participation with The Possibility Project has given him the opportunity through theater arts to bring awareness, life, and voice to issues that young people face every day: bullying, social acceptance, sexual orientation discrimination, and gender identity bias. In addition to volunteering with the Bravo EMT Youth program in Bay Ridge, he is part of the NYPD Explorers program, where he is considering a career in law and public service. Most recently, Elijah helped form the grassroots NYC Marchers movement to speak out against police brutality. Elijah’s belief in equity constantly inspires him to “act as a bridge and be a catalyst for change while standing firm as an advocate for those most in need."
