Join America's Roundtable radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with the Honorable Thomas Garrett, Jr., member of the Commonwealth of Virginia's House of Delegates and former US Congressman.

The conversation will focus on the state of America's economy, Trump's economic reforms, US-Iran Talks, America's ties with Israel, Virginia's radical changes with major tax hikes and sweeping gun control legislation and a new redistricting initiative which may leave Virginia's Congressional delegation with a 10-1 in favor of Democrats rather than the current 6-5 Republican edge. This could pose challenges in the mid-term elections.a leading attorney, currently serving as a legislator in the Commonwealth of Virginia, former Assistant Attorney General and former U.S. Congressman.

The Washington Post's Editorial Board:
"Brass-knuckled hypocrisy in Virginia"

Quote:

_The self-styled democracy party isn’t behaving democratically. Democrats in Richmond are trying to effectively disenfranchise millions of Virginians by redrawing congressional maps to give themselves 10 of the commonwealth’s 11 House seats — giving Democrats control of 91 percent of House seats in a state where Republicans lost the last presidential election by just six points.

Most know better, including the governor. Abigail Spanberger was among the two-thirds of Virginians who voted in 2020 to transfer once-a-decade redistricting from the legislature to a bipartisan commission. “Gerrymandering is detrimental to our democracy,” she said back then. On Friday, Spanberger signed a bill to schedule an April 21 referendum that would move it back. The governor said it was necessary “to let voters respond to extreme measures taken by other states.”_

Join America's Roundtable radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with the Honorable Benjamin S. Carson, Sr. M.D., one of America's most principled leaders, a brilliant mind, and a champion of freedom. Dr. Ben Carson is the founder and chairman of the American Cornerstone Institute, the 17th U.S. Secretary of the Department of Housing and Development, and former director of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital.

The conversation focuses on:

• Domestic and foreign policy initiatives with a review on the successes of the second Trump Administration.
• The importance of faith, family and patriotism in protecting our freedoms in America.
• The ills of marxism and socialism and their manifestation in America.
• Expanding homeownership and reigniting the American Dream.
• Affirming Israel's sovereignty and protecting Jewish communities in the West.

Our conversation also highlights Dr. Ben Carson's must-read book "The Perilous Fight: Overcoming Our Culture's War on the American Family."

Quote from Dr. Ben Carson's book, "The Perilous Fight":
"The perilous fight" was penned by Francis Scott Key in the midst of a most difficult and pivotal moment in our nation's history when twenty British ships bombarded Fort McHenry from the Baltimore Harbor. It was on the morning of September 14, 1814 that Francis Scott Key wrote about the ramparts, and the land of the free and the home of the brave which inspired a nation and became a rallying victory call.

“The perilous fight—those words arrest my attention whenever I place my right hand over my heart and face the flag at the playing of our national anthem. They are a reminder that America was born in a crucible of fire. Freedom was not given freely but had to be fought for and defended.” ~ Dr. Ben Carson

Join America's Roundtable radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with the Honorable Tom Garrett, a leading attorney, currently serving as a legislator in the Commonwealth of Virginia, former Assistant Attorney General and former U.S. Congressman.

While serving in the US Congress, Tom served on the Foreign Affairs Committee and Homeland Security Committee. An expert on Iran and the Middle East, Tom Garrett's analysis and insights are enlightening as America's foreign policy and national security concerns are focused on a strategic region adversely impacted by Iran, a state sponsor of terrorism.

Key Topics:

1. The state of America's economy and the impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act focused on cutting taxes for everyday and hardworking Americans, including no tax on tips and overtime, no tax on social security, and savings for American families.

2. Energy | Fuel costs going down with a goal to make America energy independent.

3. President Trump's speech at the United Nations and the truth that while Western nations spend hundreds of billion of taxpayer dollars on the efforts to address climate change while China continues to be the world's number polluter. He called it "a conjob." President Trump stated that renewable energy, along with migration, was destroying Western countries and placing nations in debt and added greater security challenges.

Published report:
_President Trump attacked global immigration and efforts to fight climate change during an address to the United Nations, claiming they were among the world’s top threats to Western civilization.

In an hour-long speech filled with grievances about ongoing wars, windmills and malfunctioning escalators, it was Trump’s attacks against what he called a “double-tailed monster” that rang loudest in the ornate General Assembly room.
“Immigration and the high cost of so-called green, renewable energy is destroying a large part of the free world and a large part of our planet,” he said. “Countries that cherish freedom are fading fast because of their policies on these two subjects. Both immigration and their suicidal energy ideas will be the death of Western Europe.”

“I’m telling you that if you don’t get away from the ‘green energy’ scam, your country is going to fail. If you don’t stop people that you’ve never seen before that you have nothing in common with, your country is going to fail.” _

• President Donald Trump, speech delivered at the United Nations, September 23, 2025

1. America's eyes are focused on state-wide elections in New Jersey and Virginia, with governors' races and the legislatures which will determine key policies including economic and social issues. Pro-life advocates are concerned about Virginian Democrats pushing for a radical plan:
   House Joint Resolution 1/Senate Joint Resolution 247, would amend the Virginia Constitution to allow for unrestricted abortion through the third trimester of pregnancy – repealing and preventing widely supported abortion regulations that enjoy broad support from the American people.

2. New manufacturing plant in the United States - Insulin for Americans | Competition to bring down prices of pharmaceuticals in America | India's Biocon which produces biosimilars and insulin opened its first manufacturing facility in New Jersey.

Biocon Biologics is a global leader in biosimilars and insulin production and is among the top three global players for rh-Insulin and Insulin Glargine, providing over 9.2 billion doses of insulin globally with a broad portfolio comprising basal, mixed and rapid acting insulins.

Kiran Mazumdar-Shaw, Chairperson, Biocon Group, said, “Biocon’s first U.S. FDA approved formulations facility in New Jersey marks a new chapter in our journey of global expansion. More than a milestone, it is a reaffirmation of our purpose to serve patients wherever they are."

Washington Times, op-ed by Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy:

FDA must fast track insulin for the millions of Americans living with diabetes

Join America's Roundtable radio co-hosts Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy with the Honorable Tom Garrett, a leading attorney, currently serving as a legislator in the Commonwealth of Virginia and former Assistant Attorney General.

While serving in the US Congress, Tom served on the Foreign Affairs Committee and Homeland Security Committee. An expert on Iran and the Middle East, Tom Garrett's analysis and insights are enlightening as America's foreign policy and national security concerns are focused on a strategic region adversely impacted by Iran, a state sponsor of terrorism.

Our conversation is focused on:

1. The US airstrikes authorized by President Trump targeting Iran's nuclear sites and the realities on the ground within the Middle East.

2. Lessons Learned in the Middle East | The next step as calls for "regime change in Tehran" grow louder within the Iranian diaspora, and the importance of an organic grown opposition in Iran to revolt, rather than foreign intervention.

3. The rise of socialism in America's major cities. Ten percent of NYC voters choose a socialist with anti-Semitic views as the official Democratic Party's NYC mayoral candidate for the November 2025 election.

Rise of Socialism in America | Zohran Mamdani, the 33-year-old democratic socialist embracing radical views which undermine the U.S. Constitution would be the first Muslim to lead the nation's largest city if elected. His chants for a "free Palestine" and the public call to "Globalize the Intifada" - a slogan used by pro-Palestinian activists to call for widespread violence against Jews and Israel has raised serious concerns from within New York and around the country.

1. Focusing on the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as it carries out its responsibilities in arresting illegal immigrants involved in criminality.

On the efforts of ICE within Virginia:

“We are now through over 2,000 arrests as part of the Virginia Homeland Security Task Force. It’s working, and most importantly, we’re getting really tough bad guys off the street.” - Governor Glen Youngkin, Virginia

In addition to the conversation on US airstrikes on Iran's nuclear sites authorized by President Trump and the reaction by Democrat leaders on the Hill, Tom Garrett also highlights the challenges we face within America as New York City's democrat voters elect a staunch socialist as its candidate for this November's mayoral election.

Tom Garrett is a US Army veteran and served in locations including the perilous Balkan region during the 1990s right after the Dayton Peace Accords were signed. He served as Assistant Attorney General, Commonwealth of Virginia.

In 2016, Honorable Tom Garrett was elected to represent Virginia’s 5th Congressional District in the United States House of Representatives. While in Congress, Tom served on the Foreign Affairs Committee, Homeland Security Committee and the Education and Workforce Committee.

Bill Yeargin also serves as chairman of the National Marine Manufacturers Association with 1,300 member companies producing an estimated 85 percent of the boats, engines, trailers and accessories used by boaters and anglers throughout the U.S. and Canada.

The conversation highlights Bill Yeargin's recent op-ed piece in CEO World Magazine titled, "Losing Capitalism," in which he relays concerns about the strong headwinds that are blowing against the ideas of economic liberty and free markets. "I am a CEO, not an economist, and I confess to having a strong affinity for capitalism. I believe if you want to help people, you should start a philanthropic organization. If you want to help a LOT of people, start a business. Capitalism is the undeniable wealth creator, but right now it is on life support." — Bill Yeargin, Losing Capitalism, CEO World Magazine

The timely conversation also focuses on economic polices being presented including a major tax hike on businesses which will adversely impact small companies and workers, and schemes that will halt investments in America. As tax competition for lower rates continues around the world, America may well become an economic laggard with businesses leaving its shores for low tax jurisdictions.

The Wall Street Journal's editorial board opined by stating:

"The Democratic team that brought you declining real wages is now threatening to lower your pay again. That’s the practical effect of Kamala Harris’s idea to raise the U.S. corporate tax rate to 28%, and it’s instructive that an anti-growth tax increase is one of the Vice President’s few distinctive policy priorities so far. Ms. Harris’s endorsement Monday of a 28% rate, up from the current 21%, signs onto what President Biden has been proposing."

Over the decades, there have been certain forces decrying the ills of capitalism and making unsubstantiated claims. The think tank The Institute of Economic Affairs, which offered reformer Margaret Thatcher strategic ideas on turning Great Britain away from socialism in the 1970s and 1980s states: "...but when we see such unsubstantiated claims, we should remember; the data simply doesn’t support the anti-capitalists."

The discussion also raises the concerns of skyrocketing government spending. Milton Friedman, Nobel prize winner in economics and founding partner of International Leaders Summit (the think tank which launched America's Roundtable) said: “Keep your eye on one thing and one thing only: how much government is spending, because that's the true tax … If you're not paying for it in the form of explicit taxes, you're paying for it indirectly in the form of inflation or in the form of borrowing."

Bill Yeargin authored a number of books including the bestseller, "Education of a CEO", "Making Life Better" and the recently released "Faith Leap" - now available on Amazon.

In an earlier episode on America's Roundtable, Bill Yeargin shared about his experiences in the business arena and the principles which guided him and his company through a major transformation from $40 million in sales in 2009 to over $1 billion annually.

The program begins with the words — "the perilous fight" penned by Francis Scott Key in the midst of a most difficult and pivotal moment in our nation's history when twenty British ships bombarded Fort McHenry from the Baltimore Harbor. It was on the morning of September 14, 1814 that Francis Scott Key wrote about the ramparts, and the land of the free and the home of the brave which inspired a nation and became a rallying victory call.

Our conversation highlights Dr. Ben Carson's new book "The Perilous Fight: Overcoming Our Culture's War on the American Family."

“The perilous fight—those words arrest my attention whenever I place my right hand over my heart and face the flag at the playing of our national anthem. They are a reminder that America was born in a crucible of fire. Freedom was not given freely but had to be fought for and defended.” ~ Dr. Ben Carson

The Perilous Fight equips us to understand:

— The hard data behind the breakdown of the family and its effects on our society, including poverty, crime, and deteriorating education.

— The core biblical beliefs that led our nation into unprecedented freedom and prosperity--and why abandoning those beliefs led to the social decline we see today.

— The fresh ideas and public policy options that could reverse negative trends impacting the family while maintaining a balance between constitutional freedoms and governmental involvement.

The American Cornerstone Institute (ACI) was founded by world-renowned neurosurgeon and 17th Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development, Dr. Ben Carson.

Throughout his life, Dr. Carson has broken through barriers and has paved major roads in our political arena, both in Washington, D.C. and in communities across the country, and he’s not stopping now. A champion for logic and common sense solutions, Dr. Carson will always stay true to his principles and his faith, which guide ACI through this volatile time in our nation.

Shaikh Abdullah bin Rashid Al Khalifa was appointed Bahrain's ambassador to the United States in April 2017. Born in 1980, Al Khalifa is the son of Bahraini Interior Minister Lieutenant General Rashid bin Abdullah Al Khalifa. The younger Al Khalifa graduated from Ibn Khuldoon National School in 1997 and came to the United States for college. He earned a B.S. in management from Bentley College (now Bentley University) in Waltham, Massachusetts in 2001 and an MBA from the same school in 2003. Bentley opened a Bentley in Bahrain program in 2002.

Al Khalifa returned to Bahrain and was made head of educational affairs for the Royal Family Council. Two years later, he was director of education and the Social Affairs Directorate. In 2007, Al Khalifa was named director of planning and followup for the General Organization for Youth and Sports and the following year became the organization’s human resources director. In March 2010, King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa appointed Al Khalifa to a four-year term as governor of Bahrain’s Southern Governorate, the largest such political division. He was reappointed in 2015. Al Khalifa is also a member of the National Commission for Drug Control and the board of the Bahrain Olympic Committee. He was previously president of Bahrain’s Weightlifting and Bodybuilding Federation and president of the Asian Bodybuilding Federation and a member of the board of directors of the Bahraini Archery Federation.

America's Roundtable conversation with Ambassador Al Khalifa includes the following key topics:

1) The history of the US-Bahrain friendship and partnership. The United States and the Kingdom of Bahrain's longstanding partnership with a strong record of economic, cultural, trade and security cooperation. 

2) Opportunities for trade and investment via United States Trade Zone in Bahrain (USTZ), as a regional trade, manufacturing, logistics, and distribution hub for U.S. companies in Bahrain, markets in the Gulf Cooperation Council, and beyond.

3) Bahrain's advances in technology, ranked 4th globally in ‘Internet users’ category with 99% penetration, as per the Global Competitiveness Report by World Economic Forum (WEF)

4) US-Bahrain partnership with Bahrain hosting the U.S. Navy's Fifth Fleet and the headquarters of U.S. Naval Forces.

5) Bahrain joining a coalition of like-minded countries committed to upholding the rules-based order, protecting freedom of navigation and international commerce, and holding the Houthis accountable for their illegal and unjustifiable attacks on mariners and commercial shipping in the Red Sea.

The discussion on America's Roundtable focuses on Israel's war against Iran-backed Hamas, Iran's proxies attacking US facilities, and the significance of America's sacrosanct ties with Israel. Dr. Carson addresses the rise of anti-Semitism in America. The conversation brings to the forefront the successful Abraham Accords and the urgency to hold to account Iran, a state sponsor of terrorism.

Benjamin S. Carson, Sr., M.D.

For a time, the likelihood of Benjamin S. Carson, Sr., M.D. fulfilling his childhood dream of becoming a physician seemed unlikely. Growing up in a single parent home with dire poverty, poor grades, a horrible temper, and low self-esteem appeared to preclude the realization of that dream until his mother, with only a third-grade education, challenged her sons to strive for excellence. She observed successful people and encouraged her sons to emulate their behaviors, including reading. This led to behavior changes which had a profound effect on their education. In 1973, Ben Carson graduated from Yale University. He went on to receive his M.D. from the University of Michigan Medical School.

At the age of 33, Dr. Carson became the chief of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital, making him the youngest major division director in the hospital’s history.

In his career, Dr. Carson became a professor of neurosurgery, oncology, plastic surgery, and pediatrics at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, and directed pediatric neurosurgery at the Johns Hopkins Children’s Center for over 29 years. He became the inaugural recipient of a professorship dedicated in his name in May 2008. He is now the Emeritus Benjamin S. Carson, Sr., M.D. and Dr. Evelyn Spiro, R.N. Professor of Pediatric Neurosurgery, having retired on June 30, 2013.

In 2016, Dr. Carson accepted the position of Secretary of Housing and Urban Development under the Trump administration.

Dr. Ben Carson presents principled solutions to the challenges on the domestic and foreign fronts.

We discuss concerns about the American Dream (only 36% of voters in a new Wall Street Journal/NORC survey said the American dream still holds true), Israel's war against Iran-backed Hamas, Iran's proxies attacking US facilities, US-China relations, and America's education in crisis.

At the age of 33, Dr. Carson became the chief of pediatric neurosurgery at Johns Hopkins Hospital, making him the youngest major division director in the hospital’s history. This would be among an extensive list of outstanding firsts for Dr. Carson. Dr. Carson’s accomplishments have earned him a place in medical history. He performed the first and only successful separation of craniopagus (Siamese) twins joined at the back of the head in 1987. He also performed the first fully successful separation of type-2 vertical craniopagus twins in 1997 in South Africa. In his career, Dr. Carson became a professor of neurosurgery, oncology, plastic surgery, and pediatrics at the Johns Hopkins School of Medicine, and directed pediatric neurosurgery at the Johns Hopkins Children’s Center for over 29 years. He became the inaugural recipient of a professorship dedicated in his name in May 2008. He is now the Emeritus Benjamin S. Carson, Sr., M.D. and Dr. Evelyn Spiro, R.N. Professor of Pediatric Neurosurgery, having retired on June 30, 2013.

In 2016, Dr. Carson accepted the position of Secretary of Housing and Urban Development under the Trump administration. After completing his tenure as the 17th Secretary of the Department of Housing and Urban Development in 2021, Dr. Carson founded the American Cornerstone Institute. This organization is focused on fighting for the principles that have guided him through life and that make this country great: faith, liberty, community and life.

Dr. Carson and his wife, Candy Carson, co-founded the Carson Scholars Fund, which recognizes young people of all backgrounds for exceptional academic and humanitarian accomplishments. The organization has awarded more than 10,500 scholars and more than $8 million in scholarships.

Our conversation is focused on the following topics:

—Advancing U.S. state competition and the urgency to make America more competitive in the global arena.

—Securing energy independence in America | Initiative for a modular nuclear reactor in Virginia.

—The unsustainable US debt exacerbated by the growing interest rate.

—A Convention of States is much closer than you think. Learn about the growing momentum for a Convention of States aimed at creating a balanced budget amendment. Listen to how many states have joined this principled initiative.

“I wish it were possible to obtain a single amendment to our Constitution. I would be willing to depend on that alone for the reduction of the administration of our government to the genuine principles of its Constitution; I mean an article, taking from the Federal government the power of borrowing.”
— Thomas Jefferson's statement just two years after the Constitution had been in effect, argued for a a Constitutional amendment to curtail Federal government spending.

Brief Bio:

At the conclusion of his term as Governor of Virginia, George Allen viewed with satisfaction the monumental reforms his administration achieved that made Virginia a national model in economic development, public safety, education accountability, and welfare reform.

The Washington Post called Allen “one of the most influential governors in recent Virginia history”.

The Richmond Times-Dispatch recently praised Allen’s campaign “among the most policy-driven campaigns in gubernatorial history.”

Keeping the promises he made to Virginians, and working with a Democratic-controlled General Assembly, Allen successfully cut taxes by more than $600 million; instituted high academic Standards of Learning and School Performance Report Cards; made neighborhoods safer with the abolition of parole; initiated historic, pro-work welfare reforms; enacted the nation’s first Public-Private Transportation funding system; repealed or amended 71% of all regulations; reduced the size of government with greater efficiency and accountability; and grew the economy – making sure the world knew “Virginia is Open for Business”. With added revenues, Allen was able to freeze tuition rates at universities and community colleges.

Allen’s administration recruited over $13 billion in new investments and created more than 300,000 net new private sector jobs. When Allen was sworn in as Governor in 1994, coal and cigarettes were Virginia’s top exports; after four years of Allen’s tireless dedication to economic-development, semiconductor chips became Virginia’s top export, leading U.S. News and World Report to dub Virginia the “Silicon Dominion”.

American Cornerstone Institute created the Little Patriots platform, a free, online resource to teach children civics lessons, history, and American values.

Is America in decline? — (as featured in a major piece by The Economist magazine) and other key issues including the state of America's economy with skyrocketing inflation will be brought to the forefront.

America's Roundtable will also cover The Wall Street Journal's Editorial Board piece—"Backlash Against Biden’s Limits on Charter Schools" with 18 governors urging President Biden to hold off on making sweeping changes to rules that could limit funding to new and existing charter schools.

"No President has been more hostile to charters schools than Joe Biden, and his Department of Education is proving it with proposed rules that undermine the federal Charter Schools Program. The assault is triggering a bipartisan political backlash.”—The Wall Street Journal Editorial Board

The discussion will also highlight the importance of principled US leadership in the world amid the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the atrocities and war crimes witnessed and recorded by civilians and journalists, and China's rise as a threat to America.

Here is what America's leaders are saying about Dr. Carson's new book (release date May 17, 2022) "Created Equal":

“Created Equal is a book that speaks truth to power and is so very needed in today’s divided society. Dr. Carson’s sensible solutions and advice should be heeded by all Americans that wish to see our nation united once again." —Dr. Alveda King

“This book is what the American people need: the true, unfiltered, and unabashed history of race in America and a blueprint for a real path forward. We have come a long way since the days of Martin Luther King, Jr. and his famous "I have a dream" speech and Dr. Ben Carson embodies that progress in every way imaginable. This book should be a must read for any American struggling to comprehend the left’s anti-American racial agenda, and especially for those espousing it.”—Bob Unanue, CEO, Goya Foods

"Dr. Carson’s Created Equal brilliantly reveals the destructiveness of false divisions in society through his moving conversation on education, faith, race, and values in America."—Newt Gingrich, Former Speaker of the U.S. House of Representatives

Virginia Walden Ford's inspiring journey and her principled leadership is paving the way for new states to embrace school choice and empower parents. Her message will inspire audiences, and in fact, her story is shared through a feature film titled "Miss Virginia.” "Miss Virginia" is a major motion picture starring Uzo Aduba, Matthew Modine, Niles Fitch, Vanessa Williams, and a spectacular ensemble cast. Watch Miss Virginia on Netflix, iTunes or Amazon today.

The Reason magazine writes: “The new movie Miss Virginia is based on the unlikely story of Virginia Walden Ford, who, as a single mother in Washington, D.C., in the early 2000s, fought to create a federally-funded private school voucher program that would allow poor kids—including her son—to escape failing public schools. Against long odds and institutional hostility, she succeeded and is played with fiery passion by Orange Is the New Black's Uzo Aduba. Matthew Modine, known for roles in Full Metal Jacket, Weeds, and Stranger Things, co-stars as a sympathetic congressman who helps win congressional authorization for the program.”

Congressional Democrats want to decouple welfare from work, undermining the American work ethic.

"Americans want to help those who can’t help themselves, or who are going through a rough patch. They don’t want to support healthy adults and allow them to live off government welfare programs permanently. Americans believe in the safety net, not the safety hammock."

As a self-described “Common Sense Jeffersonian Conservative,” Allen pushed through cutting edge reform with bipartisan support in a legislature held by the opposition.

Mr. Allen holds an undergraduate degree and law degree from the University of Virginia. Elected to the United States Senate in 2000, George Allen continued to make America and Virginia a leader in innovation and technology.

Mr. Allen currently serves as the President of George Allen Strategies, a consulting firm founded by Mr. Allen, and has served on the board of directors for technology companies, including Lee Technologies, nanoRisk Assessment and Material Intellect, Inc.

The program will also highlight a report co-authored by Governor Bryant and Alexandra Campana titled, “Curricula: What Parents Need to Know to Get More Involved.” The report released by America First Policy Institute explains that with increased parents and citizens' involvement, America's stakeholders can restore the educational system and ensure that students are being taught high-quality curriculum rather than politically motivated deceptions about America and its founding ideals.

We also delve into the future of fiscal policy in America with the federal debt currently over $28 trillion with the Biden-Harris administration's proposed new spending of $6 trillion in the first 100 days. Serious concerns loom over the proposed tax hikes impacting every American household and how fiscal policy impacts jobs and growth.

The timely and relevant 1776 Report presents an accurate and dependable framework to the false narrative pushed by the 1619 project which was funded by The New York Times. Historians from the wide spectrum of America's landscape have debunked the 1619 project.

‘So wrong in so many ways” is how Gordon Wood, the Pulitzer Prize-winning historian of the American Revolution, characterized the New York Times ’s “1619 Project.” James McPherson, dean of Civil War historians and another Pulitzer winner, said the Times presented an “unbalanced, one-sided account” that “left most of the history out.” — The Wall Street Journal, The ‘1619 Project’ Gets Schooled

The Miss Virginia Movie

Based on a true story, a struggling inner-city mother sacrifices everything to give her son a good education and launches a movement that could save his future - and that of thousands like him. Available NOW on over 1,000 streaming platforms, including Apple TV, Netflix, Google Play, and Amazon Prime Video. See additional platforms at www.missvirginiamovie.com/watch.

Trailer: https://youtu.be/4t_Blc9BiD0

MISS VIRGINIA’s stellar cast - Emmy® winner Uzo Aduba, Golden Globe nominee Matthew Modine, Emmy® nominee Vanessa Williams, Emmy® nominee Aunjanue Ellis, Amirah Vann, Emmy® nominee Adina Porter and Niles Fitch. Directed by: R.J. Daniel Hanna

About Virginia Walden Ford - From Miss Virginia Movie (https://www.missvirginiamovie.com):

“Being a part of this fight for educational excellence was hard — certainly something I had never thought I’d be involved in — but when I looked at my children and my neighbors’ children, I felt compelled to continue. It was scary sometimes, but I believed then and I believe now that it was the right thing to do… for all of our kids.” — Virginia Walden Ford

MISS VIRGINIA is inspired by the story of Virginia Walden Ford, a struggling single mother from a low-income neighborhood in Washington, DC. Affectionately called “Miss Virginia” and “the Education Lady” by neighborhood children, Virginia fought to create a scholarship program for her at-risk son and children like him. And she won.

Virginia grew up in the deep South. Her world changed when the Supreme Court decided the landmark case Brown v. Board of Education, which famously concluded that “separate educational facilities” for white and black children were “inherently unequal.”

Virginia’s fight for her son and other at-risk kids forced her to become a warrior. She had to overcome deep inner doubts about whether she could actually do what she had set out to do — and almost crippling fear that she would let down the parents and kids whose hopes and dreams depended on her.

In 2004, after years of activism, Virginia secured legislation that gave thousands of impoverished, largely minority children access to safe, high-quality schools. Many have since gone on to college and rewarding careers, an outcome that would have been unimaginable without the educational boost Virginia’s law provided.

Now, MISS VIRGINIA captures Virginia’s indomitable spirit on screen. The film will inspire audiences to do their utmost to secure their children’s essential civil right—the right to an education.

AMERICA'S ROUNDTABLE:

America's Roundtable is co-hosted by Natasha Srdoc and Joel Anand Samy, co-founders of International Leaders Summit and the Jerusalem Leaders Summit.

America’s Roundtable radio program - a strategic initiative of International Leaders Summit, focuses on America’s economy, healthcare reform, rule of law, security and trade, and its strategic partnership with rule of law nations around the world. The radio program features high-ranking US administration officials, cabinet members, members of Congress, state government officials, distinguished diplomats, business and media leaders and influential thinkers from around the world.

America’s Roundtable is aired by Lanser Broadcasting Corporation - The Pledge Radio, at 96.5 FM, 98.9 FM and 1260 AM, covering Michigan’s major market, and through podcast on iTunes and other key online platforms. The Pledge Radio also features Salem Radio Network’s Dennis Prager and Michael Medved.

The conversation also highlights the importance of focusing on the science and real data from around the world when addressing the concerns about the coronavirus pandemic which originated in Wuhan, China. Dr. Carson brings to the table his experiences as a medical professional, a longtime Director of Pediatric Neurosurgery at the Johns Hopkins Hospital, a position which he held since the age of 33.

Dr. Ben Carson presents ideas and solutions, emphasizing the guidelines provided by the administration and best practices outlined in order to safely reopen schools across America. Over 50 million students from K-12 grade have been impacted by the disruption caused by the coronavirus pandemic. Greater concerns are raised as some states and school districts are pushing back on safely reopening schools. While virtual education may help a certain group of students, these efforts may further marginalize the over 43% of children from lower income families lacking access to digital devices and the 15% of U.S. households with school-age children who do not have a high-speed internet connection at home. Schools insisting on virtual education are ignoring the digital divide. This may adversely affect low-income families and specifically children from the Black, Hispanic and rural areas.

— The Opportunity Zones incentive, created by the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, was designed to spur economic development and job creation by encouraging long-term investments in low-income communities nationwide. Nearly 35 million Americans live in the more than 8,700 Opportunity Zones across the country.

—The Secretary was just in Charleston, SC for an Opportunity Zone focused event with Senator Scott to discuss a new rule from the Treasury to drive more capital in underserved communities.

—273 action items have been completed by the White House Opportunity and Revitalization Council as of the end of April. This list is available at OpportunityZones.gov. Each of these action items helps further the Council’s mission of complementing private Qualified Opportunity Fund investment.

—The rate of infection among younger schoolchildren and from students to teachers has been low, especially if proper precautions are followed. There have also been few reports of children being the primary source of COVID-19 transmission among family members. That’s where the data currently stands.
