Who We Are

​

In 2017, Nasir Andrews, at 9 years of age decided to illustrate her bully story in a video form to share with family and friends. At the end of the 3 min video, she called the viewers to action through her creation of #backdownbully. Nasir was inspired by the support of over 13 million people and wanted to help others tell their stories and end bullying.
