Leadership at the Boys and Girls Clubs of Southeast Virginia understands a simple, yet effective formula: young people who need them most, plus an outcome-driven Club experience, equals great futures.

Plus, meet Christian, the 2026 Virginia/DC Boys and Girls Clubs Youth of the Year, who shares how BGCSEVA changed his life.

Clinical trials are research projects that study the effects of new medical interventions, like drugs, devices, vaccines or behavioral therapies, to determine if they are safe and effective for humans. Only 5% of clinical trial participants are African American. What makes Black people so reluctant to participate in the trials? Why is Black representation important? And what can be done to increase trust? We explore those questions during Another View on Health.

More than 3 million people voted in last month’s statewide redistricting referendum special election, with the majority voting "yes" to allow for a temporary map that favored Democrats. The Virginia Supreme Court threw out the vote saying the process used to create the amendment was unconstitutional. This decision, on the heels of the SCOTUS ruling that guts the Voting Rights Act, has many in the Black community concerned that their voting rights may be headed back to the Jim Crow era of unfair practices, intimidation and even violence to keep Black and other marginalized people from voting. The Another View Round Table tackles this and other current events.

The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that states may not draw congressional redistricting maps based on race, but they can redraw them based on party affiliation. Critics say the decision further erodes fair voter representation, especially for Black and brown people. What will be the impact of Louisiana v. Callais in the upcoming midterm elections? And how will this ruling affect Virginia's Supreme Court decision on redistricting in the Commonwealth?

In addition to the normal struggles of climbing the professional ladder, African American leaders in all professions carry the weight of representing the Black community, with their every move often considered a reflection of the entire race. It can be a heavy burden, sometimes leading to devastating consequences. We have a frank conversation about the hidden struggles of Black professionals and where they turn when they need help with our guests, Dr. Alvean Lyons, Dr. Harold Neighbors, and Another View on Health co-host Dr. Keith Newby.

"Who do you think you are?" - a question usually one usually asks of another, especially in a disagreement. But have you ever asked yourself the question? China Watson, author of "Who Do You Think You Are?", believes that by changing the way we see ourselves and our circumstances, we unlock barriers to new possibilities and growth, and learn to face life challenges with resilience and optimism. Come with us on this journey of self-discovery!

The 250th anniversary of America has sparked renewed interest in family lineage. Many people of European descent can trace family roots back to 1776 and beyond. But for many African Americans, the search is more difficult because of systemic erasure of records during slavery. We share ways for people of color to find their family story. Meet the folks of Kinfolkology and learn how their work is "dedicated to remembering enslaved ancestors as kin and kindred in full partnership with descendent communities."
