Everyone dreams about who they want to be when they grow up. As we grow up, however, these desires are increasingly influenced by the realities of life. This is especially true for the children of famous civil rights leaders like Dr. Ilyasah Shabazz, daughter of Malcolm X. In this episode, Dr. Shabazz speaks with the Second Draft Project about her father, birthright, lineage, and the importance of carrying the torch. Balancing the work of rewriting the false narrative that surrounds her family while also maintaining her place in the fight for civil rights is an uphill battle, but these are the responsibilities that a daughter of the movement has to bear. Tuning in, you’ll also hear from Black Lives Matter (BLM) co-founder Patrisse Cullors and Rodney King’s daughter Lora King about how they are passing the torch to the next generation.
Key Points From This Episode:
- The challenges Dr. Shabazz faced growing up in the shadow of her famous father.
- How she continues her parents’ legacy through her own civil rights activism work.
- Why Patrisse Cullors isn’t a typical daughter of the movement but still carries the torch.
- Rising to the occasion: why not all activists are born to social justice leaders.
- What Lora King wanted to be before she assumed the mantle of leadership.
- Ways that she bridges the gaps between police brutality, community relations, and race.
- How Daughters of the Movement passes the torch to the next generation.
