4:20 pm For over 40 years, the India Culture Center has toiled to keep Indian heritage forefront in the community’s mind, especially through celebration of two national flagship events. One of these, India’s Independence Day, is around the corner and the ICC will mark it with a festival on, Sunday, August 17. To tell us more about it are ICC Board Directors Treasurer Naeem Vehvaria and Director Dr. Raghvendra Senger.
4:50 pm Amanda Edwards is an attorney and native Houstonian who served as the Houston City Council Member in At-Large Position 4. She ran unsuccessfullyagainst Sheila Jackson Lee, and later against Sylvester Turner, for the United States House of Representatives - Texas Congressional District 18. That seat has been left vacant since Turner died in March this year, with Gov. Abbott dragging his feet in asking for a special election. Amanda is currently a candidate for the seat again and joins us today to discuss the crowded race –there are 20 candidates – in the special general election in November.
5:20 pm At the urging of Donald Trump, Gov. Greg Abbott has pushed for a mid-census redistricting of the Texas Congressional map, putting four Houston area districts squarely in contention, in a bid to win 5seats for the GOP in next year’s elections. We asked Dylan Russell, the Fort Bend County Democratic Party’s General Counsel and Precinct Chair #3127 to explain this redistricting process. Also stay tuned in for news roundup, views, sports and movie reviews.
