001: From Foster Care to the House of Lords: Baroness Lola Young

Welcome to She Leads For Legacy, where you'll hear inspirational stories of black women and their allies who are leaving a positive legacy, with mother and daughter team Sharon and Afiya Amesu.

Baroness Lola Young, a trailblazing figure in British politics and culture, shares her inspiring journey from foster care to becoming a member of the House of Lords (which involves childhood favourite Metal Mickey btw). 🤖

Baroness Young reflects on her advocacy for social justice, the transformative power of education, and the challenges of navigating identity and resilience throughout her extraordinary life.

Here's a link to Lola's book, which is the centrepiece for the conversation: AmazonUK
