"Western Elders is a physical representation of heritage, legacy, and culture. One of my fondest memories is hearing my grandmother say “respect your elders.” That Ghanaian accent has that statement burned into my head. Growing up in the western world and being immersed in my West African roots moved me to create Western Elders. The things that those before me felt were right to expose me to, and the histories that led me to my creative inspiration, proved that there was no other name for what I wanted to give to the world. The creation I bring to you is the result of the duality that makes me me: my West African history and my rich roots in New York. Built by Africa, Made in New York: Western Elders" - Jamal Braimah
