Dr. Alveda C. King, niece of Rev. Martin Luther King, will be the featured speaker at the next installment of the “Living the American Dream” series. The event is Sunday, October 26, 2025, at Mark One Electric, 1414 Genessee Street in Kansas City, Mo, and begins at 1:30 P.M.
It is sponsored by the Kansas Black Republican Council in partnership with the Kansas Federation of Republican Women, and the Republican National Hispanic Assembly of Kansas City, land will be hosted by Pete Mundo of KCMO Talk Radio.
Dr. King currently serves as Chair of American Dream at the America First Policy Institute. She is the founder of the pro-life organization Speak for Life, host of the Fox Nation program “Alveda King’s House”, a Fox News contributor, former college professor, from 1979-1983, a member of the Georgia House of Representatives, and the recipient of the Presidential Lifetime Achievement Award.
The event’s organizers said in a news release:
“This is an incredible opportunity for Kansas and Missouri. Dr. King’s presence reflects the very mission of this series: highlighting voices who inspire us to pursue liberty, dignity, and the American Dream. We invite citizens of all backgrounds to join us for this historic gathering.”
The “Living the American Dream” series focuses on those leaders who embody faith, family, and the promise of America. Its inaugural event in 2024 featured Virginia Lt. Governor Winsome Earle-Sears.
We asked Michael Austin, Chief Executive of the Kansas Black Republicans, about the significance of Dr. King headlining this year’s Kansas City event:
“We take great pride in welcoming Dr. Alveda King to the Heartland. Her story is one of faith, and of family, but most importantly, of hard-won liberty. It’s a story that all men and women, regardless of politics, should hear because it speaks to the American Dream.”
