Her diverse background, including her experiences as a teacher, educational leader, military spouse, and parent, will undoubtedly bring a unique perspective to this crucial role. South Carolina deserves a superintendent who deeply understands and cares for our students, and Sylvia is the perfect candidate to fill that position. To fully comprehend the immense value Sylvia will bring to our South Carolina educational system, we encourage you to visit her website at www.wright2026sc.com.

Heather Cox Richardson, a national treasure, holds a significant following on her Substack app, where she shares her insights through her “Letters from an American.” With over 2,700,000 followers, she has garnered immense attention. Her self-description succinctly states her interests and beliefs: “I am a history professor interested n the contrast between image and reality in American politics. I believe in American Democracy despite its frequent failures.” Richardson’s letters are a treasure trove of truth, backed by her extensive knowledge of American history and its recurring patterns. She offers hope and understanding, empowering us to recognize our collective responsibility. Her message is clear: Our VOICE rises from the grassroots, championing democracy as the promise of America’s future. |

At our November 17th luncheon, VOICE members are encouraged to bring jars of peanut butter — a small gesture that can make a big difference. With the uncertainty of a possible government shutdown, many families and shut-ins could face delays in receiving food assistance. Peanut butter is nutritious, shelf-stable, and easy to distribute to those in need. Let’s come together as we always do — with compassion and generosity — to support our community during this challenging time. |
