[WardFive] DNC Convention participation, NABJ-NAHJ 2016 Convention in DC

I hope everyone is doing well.  We had a very successful participation at the 2016 DNC Convention in Philadelphia, and I want to share some links of photos and videos that document some of the work we did.  Special recognition to DC Democratic State Committee Chair, Anita Bonds, for ensuring that DC was well represented and organized.

 

The morning breakfasts were livestreamed everyday on Facebook, if you did not see them live, you can watch them by visiting:   https://www.facebook.com/fgarciadc

On related news, the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) and the National Association of Hispanic Journalists (NAHJ) are hosting a joint 2016 Convention this week at the Washington Marriott.  Today at 12PM, Democratic Presidential Nominee Hillary Clinton will address the Convention.  I gave welcoming remarks at their opening reception on Wednesday, watch the program at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pfxUtYkCISA, I start speaking at 30:25.

 

The DC Statehood Today show, August edition, is now airing on DCTV (check listing for viewing time: http://www.dctv.org).  This edition, I host guests:  DC Democratic National Committee Woman MaryEva Candon, Miss District of Columbia 2016 Cierra Jackson, and former DC Mayor Sharon Pratt.  You can watch it on-line at:  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MEyau4ThTOQ
