Yolanda Renee King
Yolanda Renee King has passionately addressed mass gatherings in protests against gun violence, homelessness and inhumane treatment of refugees seeking asylum on the U.S. southern border. She also cares deeply about environmental injustice and protecting our planet.
When she met with President Obama in the Oval Office at the tender age of 4, Yolanda Renee asked him, “Mr. President, what are you going to do about all of these guns?”
Although both of her parents are energetic social reform activists, they have encouraged her to follow her heart in choosing a career, while being a caring and compassionate person. Yolanda Renee has chosen to become a life-long human rights activist in her own right while leaving open options for pursuing her own career and interests.
As an inspiration to other young people, Yolanda often gets asked what it feels like to follow in her grandparents' and parents' footsteps--and she confidently shares that she is working to create her own footprint.
