Greetings friends and welcome to episode 5 of our EMPOWER Podcast! My name is London and I am your host! Today I am excited to talk with one of metro Detroit's finest community leaders, Dr. Kofi Adoma! Dr. Kofi and I will be talking about the life and legacy of Ruth Ellis (July 23, 1899 - October 5, 2000) who was well known for being the oldest out African American lesbian, as well an activist and businesswoman in Detroit.
You are going to absolutely love listening to Dr. Kofi share about her good friend Mother Ruth and how she became one of the co-founders of the Ruth Ellis Center, a nationally known organization located in Highland Park, Michigan providing trauma-informed services to LGBTQ+ youth and young adults.
Please visit the Ruth Ellis Center to learn more on how you can support this incredible organization!
