It is with profound sadness we offer our deepest condolences to the family of Elijah L. Lewis who was murdered yesterday on Capitol Hill. Elijah was a long time friend and collaborator of Converge Media making numerous appearances on air and in film over the last 4 years but even more than that he was a committed community builder, tireless advocate for the youth of our city and our brother. #WWConverge
