4:20 pm The India Culture Center held its annual iFest – a celebration of the Indian Independence Day - two weeks ago at the Stafford Civic Center. The event featured the usual booths and eating stalls, but what stuck out especially this year was the stage show of local talent from dancers to fashion shows and skits and the way it was pulled together. The performances were on time, and the music, digital backdrops and lighting kept the audience riveted to their seats. It was a turnaround from previous years of stage shows, so we asked President Parul Fernanades and Program Chair Jasmeeta Singh to tell us how they pulled it off.
4:50 pm Texas House District 26 is up for grabs after the previous representative Republican Jacey Jetton lost to challenger Matt Morgan in the primary. Chinese-American Democrat Daniel Lee hopes to capitalize on this changing of guard and gain the seat in the November election. Lee’s platform includes reforms in infrastructure, healthcare, education and controlling gun violence. He joins us today to explain his programs and what makes him the better candidate for the district.
5:20 pm The Foundation for Children’s Cancer Research and Support will be holding it annual fundraising gala on October 5th at the Stafford Civic Center. The nascent 7 year old organization is a labor of love for the founders Jeet & Keka Kar who mortgaged their entire lifestyle in India to come to the US and take care of their young son who had cancer and has been in remission. This made them realize there are other children that need the same help, especially in India. We have them with us today to explain more about the organization and goals.
Also stay tuned in for news roundup, views, sports and movie reviews.
