First let me start off by saying congratulations to Trevon Cooper an investigative journalist for "Kentwood Through the Lens." Often times you will hear people talking about youth delinquency and the crimes committed by the youth. "When we invest in our youth and provide the resources for their success we will combat the crimes committed by the youth." I'm proud to be his mentor and I will do whatever I can to help him reach his success as a journalist.
Trevon is very outstanding young man, he is a African American male who is determine to fight all odds. He picked up a camera and mic and started to investigate stories in his community. As a investigate journalist he deeply investigate his topic of interest, crimes, political corruptions or corporate wrongdoing.
He tell the stories that many prefer to hide under the rug or not address it at all. His ground breaking investigative reports bringing to the forefront issues and matters that can affect a entire community. While some might think that he should cover the sport events, folk life events and stories, or the car wreck on the interstate. Trevon gets off the beating path and take the route less traveled. He bring issues to the forefront so they can be resolved.
