Florynce Rae "Flo" Kennedy was born in Kansas City, Missouri, United States. She was an American lawyer, activist, civil rights advocate, lecturer, and feminist. In 1944 she began classes at Columbia University School of General Studies, majoring in pre-law and graduated in 1949. In the 1960s, she broadened her scope to include political involvement and battling oppression in a variety of arenas—racism, sexism, and homosexuality. In 1966, she created the Media Workshop, an organization charged with fighting racism and discrimination in the media. Kennedy's lecturing career may have started in 1967 after she attended an anti-Vietnam War rally in Montreal. She wrote several books include: Color me Flo and Sex Discrimination in Employment.
