Activist, philanthropist, and community leader Lora King shares her best tips for how to take initiative, roll up your sleeves, and proactively solve problems by bringing people together instead of sowing division. In this time full of conflict and stress, Lora is a bright light, full of positivity and encouragement, even as she recounts some of the traumatic experiences she went through growing up in the public eye as the daughter of Rodney King. King’s name reverberated throughout the country after he was beaten by four white officers in 1991. A bystander captured the event, and the eventual acquittal of the officers in 1992 led to six days of rioting across Los Angeles.
In this enlightening interview, Lora shares the unknown side of Rodney King and honors her father’s legacy with the Rodney King Foundation, which is dedicated to promoting peace, getting along, and working in the community to promote positive race relations and achieve social justice. Her hopeful message will touch your heart and teach you how to build bridges between unlikely collaborators and enhance individual and community self-esteem. Her amazing work has had a domino effect on the lives she has touched, and her recent roll-out of the “I am King” program helps black fathers spend more time with their families, fighting negative stereotypes about the black community, and giving black families the resources needed for a positive environment where kids can thrive and be their best.
Lora and Dr. Judy discuss the supercharged secret of Empowerment and how to create meaningful change with grace and strength. If you use the practical and effective strategies discussed in this episode, you will experience joy, peace, and purpose in your life and help others to do the same. Lora is truly inspirational and her impactful work is leading the way for social justice and setting a great example for how to create change in an inclusive way. Her powerful message will resonate with you, no matter your background, and you will be moved by her maturity and grace in dealing with complex and difficult discussions and take these lessons into your life.
