One Southlake is a history-enrichment speakers bureau that draws from DFW-area, First- or Second-Generation American Speakers representing more than 30 different countries. These speakers share stories of growing up outside the United States and include survivors of communism and totalitarian regimes, a second-generation Holocaust survivor,  and people who simply moved to the United States for economic opportunities.

Our program is endorsed by Texas State Senator Donna Campbell, author of SB 24, a new law that seeks to fill a gap in students' historical understanding of tactics and consequences of communism. Our speakers are knowledgeable of the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) and are prepared to speak to those TEKS.   We partner with the local Turning Point USA on programs such as our "Survivors of Communism" Panel.   


One Southlake also has a robust Student Scholarship Program that draws on the curriculums of Victims of Communism Memorial Foundation and Hillsdale College Online. 



Giving Activity

Mission

Our goal is to educate students on what it is like NOT to grow up in the United States through the stories of people who have immigrated here. We hope to create a deeper appreciation of America and its history through the eyes of people who did not grow up with the liberties and opportunities many of us take for granted.

Needs

In addition to covering our program costs and marketing, One Southlake is always open to new speakers and volunteers who align with our mission and organizations and schools interested in hosting our programs! Please visit our website for more information: https://onesouthlake.com/

Equity Statement

One Southlake's motto is based on "E pluribus unum," meaning "out of many one." Our speakers come from more than 30 different countries but are united in their gratitude for the equal opportunities and rights they have as Americans.
