As Black organizers across the country reignite the spirit of Freedom Summer amid growing attacks on voting rights, DEI, public education, and civil rights protections, we begin the show with a special Juneteenth conversation hosted by Finale Norton featuring Gaylene Kanoyton of the Virginia NAACP and grassroots leader Ms. Margaret Morrison.
Then we shift into a LIVE Congressional District 1 Candidate Roundtable featuring in alphabetical order:
🔥 Elizabeth Dempsey Beggs 
🔥 Salaam Bhatti 
🔥 Tim Cywinski 
🔥 Shannon Taylor
We will discuss the issues voters are talking about right now: healthcare access, Medicare &amp; Medicaid, democracy, accountability, data centers, infrastructure, extremism, and what leadership looks like in this political moment. 
This is not politics as usual. This is Friday Power Lunch.
