NIKIA-TRAVAR ANDERSON
Nikia was born and raised in a small American town in the plains of Southern Arkansas called Nashville. Although he did not have running water until around the age of 5 years old, he was always wealthy in the presence of love. At an early age, this love slowly found its way to abode in his heart. Through life’s journey and experiences, this force of love would find its way to shape and refine his choices, leading him to leave behind the small-town mindset in order to travel the world. Seeing love at every corner became an important part of his perspective, and this is what led him to his writings. He began with quotes, and that evolved into him writing articles for his books.
Outside of traveling and writing, Nikia loves to spend time with his family. Being the father of his very own micronation, the Anderson tribe is the backbone of his works. With the principles of Peace, Love, Respect, Truth, and Humility as the cornerstone of his mission, he faithfully dedicates his labor to uplifting the people around him.
Since relocating to the Valley of Phoenix, Nikia spends a lot of his time in the community helping those less fortunate and mentoring young men. Specifically, he has been moved by the plight of the brothers and sisters living on the streets of downtown Phoenix, which he visits each week. This work has led him to connect with many throughout the community with similar passions. As a member of OBFC, Join the R.A.C.E., and the EndZone Project, Nikia is able to use his talents to uplift those in need.
In his first self-published book, Nikia shares personal stories about the struggle of growing up in extreme poverty in order to help others find joy, happiness, and love. “Some of the biggest challenges in life stem from the struggle to break generational curses," and his book focuses on how to overcome the barriers of change with a profound outlook on growth and personal development.
