Finding The Inner Strength with Doreen Lawrence Reviews

I learnt more about how institutionalised racism, shames not only the police and other institutions, but reflects on our society. It takes people with true commitment and courage to make change happen. Anger through injustice can be a force for good.

You find yourself being inspired by Doreen's story as you listen. I'm surprised by the few negative reviews on this course, because it isn't a course at all, it's a story of pain and light; it's a privilege to hear Doreen's story in this way. It is calm, it allows you to breathe, all while realizing I wasn't breathing at all during the hardest parts of this story. Thank you for this.

I'm only part way through-at the moment, I feel this is a beautiful opportunity to hear Doreen's story, simply told and filmed. I've read her book and this course adds a deeper layer of encounter and meaning. Wonderful.

I am becoming increasingly frustrated with the filming of all the courses. Why do you keep changing the camera angle every few seconds. I find it incredibly distracting to the point that I have stopped looking at the screen. It is awful

Doreen Lawrence shows incredible fortitude in the face of injustice. She recounts her story in a gently understated way and her advice is relatable. I am of the same generation as Stephen and have vivid memories of that time in London; revisiting the choices she was forced to make and what she subsequently endured over the decades was not an easy listen. This course is a testament to a grieving mother's resilience and grace.

Beautiful, comforting, inspirational. I lost my son less than 4 months ago, he was killed riding his motorbike by someone in a car who pulled out of a side road. I know it isn't anywhere near the same as Doreen's experience, but I understood and identified with so much of this. I am grateful for this course, it has genuinely helped me. I admire Doreen so very much, for staying true to herself and remaining a kind and gentle person.

Doreen's story was inspiring. Her directness and humility were refreshing and I found it innovative for the course to present the lesson through her life's story. Very moving and a lot of important takeaways.
