Many recognize Leslie E. Redmond as the ultimate millennial.
I am the descendant of Africans who were enslaved right here on American soil. I am a first generation college graduate who has gone on to accomplish my ancestors wildest dreams.
At the age of 20 years old, I had lunch with President Barack Obama. At the age of 25, I became the youngest President of the Minneapolis National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). I have been recognized both locally and nationally.
At the humble age of 28 years old, I obtained my Juris Doctorate as well as my Masters in Business Administration. I passed the Minnesota Bar Examination, on my first attempt. I am often in the center of civil rights advocacy in the Twin Cities. I am most notably known for my Don’t Complain, Activate (DCA) brand.
As seen on–
Leslie’s passion is people. She wants to share her experiences and lessons with others. She stood on the front lines after the unjust killings of Jamar Clark, Philando Castile, and Justine Damond.
