Fashion designer, entrepreneur, human rights activist, U.S. Marine veteran and grandson of Blues legend B.B. King, Christopher King was not born with everything handed to him on a silver platter. A troubled youth in his teens, King knows that proper speech, attire, manners and respect for human rights all lead to personal and professional success in life.

He is deeply committed to empowering Florida’s youth with civility and the knowledge of human rights, thereby reducing the likelihood that they become trafficking victims or traffickers themselves.

“I am not willing to let human trafficking, bullying or violence occur, not on my watch,” said Mr. King.

Christopher King is the founder of The Gentlemen’s Course, a nonprofit organization teaching young adults etiquette for the real world as seen on ABC, CBS, and NBC. King launched the Gentlemen’s Course which is a program in partnership with United for Human Rights that teaches the youth proper etiquette and their human rights. In the third-busiest hub for child sex trafficking in the U.S., Christopher King, called “The Gentleman of Tampa,” believes people have the choice and the power to not only respect and protect themselves but to respect and protect others. His goal: to stop human trafficking by teaching human rights, respect and moral values. When King discovered that Florida ranked third for human trafficking, he knew he needed to take action. He appeared on Scientology Network’s VOICES FOR HUMANITY, the weekly series presenting heroic change-makers from a variety of faiths, cultures and nations, working to uplift their communities, which premiered December 12, 2018.
