Anthony King is a junior majoring in communication whose leadership throughout the past year has raised awareness about systemic racism and discrimination in our community. Shortly after the tragic death of George Floyd, Anthony sprang to action by organizing a protest and rally of 500 people in Bowling Green to demand racial justice. He co-founded a non-profit called Black Rights, Activism, Visibility, Equity (B.R.A.V.E.), focused on “creating real change in local government policy to fight systemic racism and help to create resources and opportunities for Black people to succeed in education and business.” Since the creation of B.R.A.V.E. much progress has been made. For example, B.R.A.V.E. worked with the Bowling Green community to organize our first ever Juneteenth celebration. Another example includes working with local law enforcement, city government, and community organizations to raise awareness about the Black experience including supporting Black businesses and entrepreneurs to succeed. Anthony is currently creating a Black business incubator program in partnership with the local chamber of commerce. Anthony has contributed to significant change in our community in a short period of time, and has established a non-profit structure, coalition, and strategic goals that will continue to advance racial justice well into the future.
