 Luzette King is a Vincentian
who lives in Washington, D.C. Prior to relocating to the United States she
lived in London, United Kingdom for most of her adult life. Among other
activities, she is producer of Global Highlights, a weekly radio show segment of
Nice Vibes hosted by Ferand ‘Randy D’ Dopwell and can be heard on Saturdays at
8:55 am (Caribbean Time) on
Nice Radio
or FM SVG: 90.3, 96.7, 101.3. Global Highlights examines global
developments and how they affect the Caribbean and its Diaspora. With the
backing of radio icon Von Martin, host of
Caribbeana (FM DC 89.3), she
has pioneered the idea of featuring special programs on contemporary issues in
the United States. These have included Democracy in the Caribbean, HIV and
AIDS in the Caribbean and The Abolition of the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade and
she is of the view that not enough is being done to tap the valuable technical
and financial resource pool in the Caribbean Diaspora. This view was expressed
during an interview
with the BBC reporter Tony Fraser during the June 2007 'Conference on
the Caribbean' that was attended by President George W. Bush and Caribbean
Community leaders.
Luzette is a UK
trained Registered Nurse who specialized in midwifery and mental health. In
addition she holds a Bachelor's degree and a Master's degree in Law from the
University of East London.
