WAKR and the Ray Horner Morning Show are featuring a member of the black community in Akron who have made an impact by their courage and leadership.

Kemp Boyd is the executive director of Love Akron, and he has been a prominent figure and coach in the area for a number of years. He has made a mission in directing young men and molding them into gentlemen and future leaders.
