About Left-Wing Kingz
Welcome to Left-Wing Kingz, where we explore progressive politics, social justice, and the African American experience from a left-wing perspective. Our mission is to foster critical conversations, amplify marginalized voices, and challenge the status quo.
Our Story
Left-Wing Kingz was born out of a passion for change. As African Americans we recognize the struggles faced by our community and the urgent need for transformation. So our founder, Maliek Whitaker assembled a dedicated team of military veterans and dependents with a wide range of business, education, and political experience to dissect complex issues, provide informed and factual analysis, and inspire action.
