Hadley Heath Manning
“I’m proud to wear the title of Tony Blankley Fellow and emulate Mr. Blankley’s example. The world needs more political discourse that is thoughtful, principled, and positive, and I appreciate that the Tony Blankley Fellows contribute to the discourse in this way. This fellowship connected me to opportunities I would have never had otherwise, like interviewing the Governor of Colorado and other high-profile speakers. It’s a privilege to be a part of this group.”
