Annual MLK Day luncheon in San Jose celebrates icon’s legacy

The 46th annual event at San Jose State University is set to be a star-studded affair, with two dynamic and inspiring individuals headlining the event. “Empowermenteur” Angela Rye and Instagram sensation Sean the Science Kid will be taking the stage to share their stories and empower the audience with their messages of resilience and determination.

Angela Rye, also known as the “Empowermenteur”, is a political commentator, lawyer, and CEO of IMPACT Strategies. She has become a prominent figure in the world of politics, using her platform to advocate for social justice and empower marginalized communities. Rye has been a vocal advocate for diversity and inclusion, and her powerful speeches have inspired many to take action and make a positive change in their communities.

Rye’s journey to becoming an “Empowermenteur” was not an easy one. Growing up in a single-parent household in Seattle, she faced many challenges and obstacles. However, she refused to let her circumstances define her and instead used them as motivation to succeed. Rye went on to graduate from the University of Washington and then earned her law degree from Seattle University School of Law.

After working as a legislative advocate in Washington D.C., Rye founded IMPACT Strategies, a political advocacy firm that focuses on empowering young professionals in the political and civic engagement space. She has also served as the executive director and general counsel to the Congressional Black Caucus for the 112th Congress. Rye’s dedication to empowering others and fighting for social justice has earned her recognition and respect from leaders and activists around the world.

Joining Rye on stage is Sean the Science Kid, a social media influencer and science communicator. With over 1 million followers on Instagram, Sean has become a household name, known for his fun and educational science experiments and demonstrations. But Sean’s journey to success was not without its challenges.

Growing up in a low-income neighborhood in Los Angeles, Sean faced many obstacles and lacked access to resources and opportunities. However, he refused to let his circumstances hold him back and instead used his passion for science to create a platform that would inspire and educate others. Through his engaging and entertaining content, Sean has become a role model for young people, showing them that anything is possible with hard work and determination.

Together, Rye and Sean will bring their unique perspectives and experiences to the stage at San Jose State University. Their stories of resilience and determination will motivate and inspire the audience to overcome their own challenges and strive for success.

The theme of this year’s event is “Empowerment through Resilience”, and there could not be two better individuals to embody this message. Both Rye and Sean have faced adversity and have used it as a driving force to achieve their goals and make a positive impact in the world.

The 46th annual event at San Jose State University promises to be an unforgettable evening, filled with inspiration, motivation, and empowerment. Rye and Sean will undoubtedly leave a lasting impression on the audience, reminding them that with resilience and determination, anything is possible.
