To kick off Pride Month, My Legacy revisits one of our most powerful conversations with Emmy, Grammy, and Tony Award-winning artist Billy Porter.  

In this special “best of” episode – hosted by Martin Luther King III, Arndrea Waters King, Marc Kielburger and Craig Kielburger – Billy is joined by his beloved sister and lifelong best friend, Mary Martha Ford, whose unconditional love helped shape his extraordinary journey. 

Together, Billy and Mary Martha open up about family, identity, and the power of living authentically – no matter the cost. Their story is a celebration of resilience, chosen family, and the transformative role of love and art in healing generational wounds. 

You’ll learn: 

• What it takes to choose yourself in a world that tells you not to 

• How unconditional love can break generational cycles 

• The role of art in surviving – and healing from – trauma 

• Why authenticity isn’t just brave; it’s necessary 

If you want to hear the full conversation, head to the My Legacy playlist. And stay tuned – we’ll be sharing more highlights from our favorite episodes every Tuesday through the end of July.
