As educator, medical expert and global leader Dr. Kim made change happen at G20 summits and in remote, rural villages alike. His family's story and his own improbable life journey provide an inside view into an extraordinary global citizen and the limitless potential to improve the world when we respect all people and their choices.

Phoenix, AZ -- (SBWIRE) -- 06/10/2021 -- Born in South Korea to parents uncharacteristically NOT urging "just fit in," Dr. Kim reveals his early years in America—feelings as an outsider, often stared at, and struggles with what being Korean means. His Father, tough and unashamed of his roots, guided his son to complete medical school before other studies, so he'd "have a skill that no one can take away from you."

Unlike Asian stereotypes, Dr. Kim divulges his nature as a fighter and shares fondly his exhilarating, formative time at Brown University's "Third World Center" and feeling closest to his fellow people of color. You may be surprised: studying anthropology was largely a way to resolve his identity crisis, and rather than "service," fighting for justice is his raison d'etre, compelling his fearlessness to "speak truth to justice" on uncomfortable topics to the world's most powerful political leaders and respected experts.

Hear him talk of his difficulty with tough conversations, his "no cry zone" at Partners in Health, "fighting for things worth fighting for," and many insights from his roles around the world, including:

"Global action is extremely difficult—the personalities matter a lot."

"Optimism is a moral choice."

Dr. Kim talks of his regrets, worries he has for the world and why he remains optimistic. He sees Asians waking up to "things not being fine" as a good thing.

"People knowing how it feels to be Asian can create greater awareness for ALL underrepresented groups and a powerful sense of solidarity. With the awakening of BLM and The Asian American Foundation—there's a sense it is possible to be respectful of all people and their choices."
