このコンテンツについて
In this powerful episode of There’s Just Something About Kansas City, we sit down with legendary civil rights leader and lifelong Kansas City advocate Alvin Brooks. At 93 years old, Brooks shares firsthand stories from nearly a century of public service, community activism, and leadership.
Recognized nationally by President George H. W. Bush as one of the "1,000 Points of Light," and honored locally as Kansas Citian of the Year and recipient of the Harry S. Truman Public Service Award, Brooks reflects on a life dedicated to justice, equity, and uplifting underserved communities.
With sharp wit, vivid memory, and unshakable purpose, he offers insights into Kansas City’s history, race relations, and the power of public service. He even recites two moving poems from memory and shares a hopeful yet unflinching perspective on society today.
Don’t miss this conversation with one of Kansas City’s most inspiring and enduring voices: Alvin Brooks, the man some call the “Patron Saint of Kansas City.”
