Elijah Coles-Brown: An inspiration to youth and adults STAFF REPORT Many people would describe 12year old Elijah Coles-Brown as a child prodigy. He describes himself as a history buff aspiring to be an engineer who enjoys spending his summers at Bush Gardens.

Coles-Brown, a Norfolk native, is busier than most adults. Besides his regular school schedule during the academic year, he is a motivational speaker. Most recently, he spoke at the Democratic National Convention via Skype — a moment he said he will remember forever. He was selected as one of four hosts from watch parties across the country.

“It meant so much to me,” he said in a recent interview with The LEGACY. “I’m so grateful and

Elijah Coles-Brown blessed that I was able to speak on the same day Hillary Clinton accepted her nomination.”

While he doesn’t plan to get into politics as an adult, he does have

an opinion on national and world issues, including the presidential race and the stigma placed on the police. Coles-Brown predicts that Clinton will serve as the nation’s next president and that it’s best “not to react but respond” when dealing with the police.

The middle schooler began his public speaking career in church when he delivered the famed Dr. Martin Luther King speech, “I Have a Dream”. Now, he writes his own speeches, has traveled the nation speaking at various events and inspires audiences on social justice.

The public can expect more from this young man. He made a cameo appearance in the movie “Loving”, the story of Richard and Mildred Loving, the Virginia couple who took

their case to the Supreme Court after violating a Virginia law prohibiting interracial marriage, set to premiere in November.

Coles-Brown already has speaking engagements slated for next year.

During the observance of MLK’s holiday weekend, he will speak at Sharon Baptist Church in Richmond and the Carver Recreation Center in Charlottesville.

Coles-Brown, the entreprenuer, is CEO of Dreamers Imagine, an organization that focuses on youth development, leadership, and encouraging youth about their “unlimited possibilities when they read, dream, and imagine”.

Food Lion donates to help feed the poor Food Lion has partnered with Virginia Peninsula Food Bank to renovate The Needs Network, a Newport News pantry and will remodel the pantry and stock the shelves at more than 30 local pantries in celebration of Feeding America’s Hunger Action Month.

Last week, Food Lion provided The Needs Network with 10,000 meals to feed children, adults and seniors who are at risk of hunger.

The renovation and donations are part of Food Lion’s second annual “The Great Pantry Makeover.”

Local Food Lion associates will refurbish The Needs Network as part of the company’s “The Great Pantry Makeover” event. The Virginia Peninsula Food Bank nominated The Needs Network for The Great Pantry Makeover as they have been working to end hunger throughout Newport News since 1995.

In celebration of Feeding America’s Hunger Action Month, Food Lion is

joining this powerful movement by remodeling and stocking the shelves at more than 30 local food pantries across its 10-state footprint during its second annual “The Great Pantry Makeover.” Hunger Action Month is a nationwide campaign mobilizing communities to take action on eliminating hunger.

Fake doctor teen arrested in Va. A Florida teen previously arrested for posing as a doctor was arrested in Virginia for allegedly trying to defraud a woman while buying a car, according to the Stafford County Sheriff’s Office.

Malachi Love-Robinson, 19, from North West Palm Beach, was arrested and charged with false statement to obtain credit, obtaining money by false pretenses and identity fraud. He is being held in the Rappahannock Regional Jail on no bond.

Detectives said Love-Robinson tried to buy a $35,000 Jaguar from Kargar Motors Car Dealership on Sept. 9.

They said Love-Robinson filed out an online credit application and used the name of a female as a co-signer on the form.

Police said employees became suspicious after some things LoveRobinson allegedly said. The employees were concerned Love-Robinson may have been trying to buy the car and stealing money from the woman he claimed was his mother. The dealership told Love-Robinson they would call him when his credit was approved, and he left the dealership.

The employees notified the Sheriff’s Office and called Love-Robinson to have him return to the dealership.

Two deputies were waiting in a back room when he arrived and began the

purchase of the car.

The deputies came out and spoke to Love-Robinson, who told them he was in Virginia to purchase a car for himself and another for his godmother, who was with him.

Love-Robinson told the deputies his godmother had agreed to cosign for the loan on the Jaguar.

Deputies then spoke with the woman with Love-Robinson. She said he was a distant relative of hers through her son’s wife and LoveRobinson considered her to be his godmother.

She told deputies that she did not give Love-Robinson permission to use her as a co-signer for the loan. A credit history run at the dealership showed two other loan applications with her information that she said she did not approve. A check with her credit card company revealed there had been a $1,200 charge the day before for two iPads and a cellphone that she had not purchased.

Love-Robinson was arrested by the deputies and charged. At the time of the arrest, he was out of jail on bond from Florida for practicing medicine without a license. He was also recently arrested in Florida for allegedly stealing money from a woman, who said he posed as a doctor to treat her in her home.

Op/Ed & Letters

The LEGACY

Surrogates like Mark Burns need a permanent timeout RAYNARD JACKSON I am really getting fed up with the constant drumbeat of criticism of Donald Trump’s campaign, especially the criticism coming from black Republicans. They seem to be willing to give President Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and our party’s leadership a pass, but when it comes to Trump, all of a sudden, they seem to have found an untapped reservoir of righteous indignation.

Yes, Trump has given his opponents plenty of reason and opportunity to criticize him, but in some ways Trump reminds me of NBA Hall of Famer Michael Jordan.

Anyone who followed Jordan’s career knows that he was not a good teammate. He was intensely critical of many of his teammates, especially when they made mistakes. Some people thought he was arrogant and sometimes even condescending to his teammates. Let’s just say he had an extremely healthy dose of his own self-worth.

But these same teammates that talked privately and anonymously to the media about Jordan were filled with effusive praise for Jordan when it came to the number of championship rings he helped them win.

So to my never-Trumpers, in general, and the black ones in particular, can you really make

a philosophical and substantive argument that Hillary Clinton would be a better president than Trump;, especially when it comes to the black community?

Clinton wants to give amnesty to those in the country illegally, but no one ever talks about the devastating negative impact of this policy or the effect of current immigration policies on the black unemployment rate for low and under-skilled blacks. Trump is the only candidate to make this argument during this whole election cycle.

Clinton wants to continue to relegate blacks to non-performing schools versus allowing parents to take their tax dollars to whatever school they deem best for their child, even though Clinton, Obama, and

most members of the Congressional Black Caucus opted for private schools for their kids. That’s not racist? Trump is a huge supporter of school choice.

These same blacks are the ones who continue to ignorantly promote the notion that Republicans must and should speak before Democratic groups like the National Urban League, the NAACP, or the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ).

This is extremely insulting to me as a fellow black Republican, but it is far easier for them to complain about Trump rather than provide a group of black Republicans for Trump to engage with. We don’t need the above liberal Democratic groups to validate our leaders or to prove that they are not racists.

Following their logic, white Republicans must speak before radical pro-homosexual groups like the Human Rights Campaign (HRC) in order to prove that Republicans are not homophobic, yet no one makes this argument.

It seems that only when it comes to the black vote do black Republicans demand that we pay homage to those who are part of the Democratic base in order to reach out to the black community.

Memo to the Trump campaign and the GOP: You have to start working

with black Republicans who have significant political experience and institutional memory about the party if you want to move the black community towards the Republican party in this and future election cycles.

If you don’t believe me or you don’t want to recognize my argument, then I simply submit to you the past two weeks of constant embarrassing media appearances by supposed black surrogates from the Trump campaign and the Republican Party as exhibit A. This is what happens when you want to hire people who you are “comfortable” with versus those who know what the hell they are doing.

Whenever a surrogate is getting more exposure than the principal (South Carolina preacher Mark Burns), there is a problem. Whenever a campaign has to explain away something a surrogate said or did, there is a problem. Whenever the media questions the party credentials or lack thereof of a surrogate, there is a problem.

The Republican Party needs to bring the black Republican adults onto the scene or these media debacles will continue and we will most assuredly lose the presidential election.

P.T. Hoffsteader, Esq.

Dump hate & anger

At times I see so much hate, anger and fear among our citizenry. We are Americans. We are bigger and better than this. We have come too far and done too much together.

I firmly believe that most Americans want what is best for our fellow citizens and our country: fairness, opportunity, responsibility, education, respect, equality, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Nothing more. Nothing less.

If “we” work together, this can be accomplished.nOur history, heritage and humanity demand and require this of us. This is why and how America became…and is the greatest nation on Earth. Therefore, let us collaborate and make this happen.

To paraphrase JFK: “Ask what you can do for country…not what country can do for you….” Or, to quote FDR: “All we have to fear is fear itself.”

Together, we can do this.

Basically, we all want the “same things” for ourselves, families, children, communities and country as a whole. Accordingly, let us…wisely and unselfishly…do the right things for our common good and united purpose. We are all in this together.

In this effort, we are one and we are the same.

When it comes to this, there is no “we” or “they.” No them or us. We can appeal to our “better angels.”

We can be(come) that “shining city on the hill.”

We can be(come) those “thousand points of light.”

America has enough riches and wealth for all of us to be adequately provided for. There are enough

natural resources, human resources and technology resources for all of us. There really is. There are some among us who want to take our country back to the “good old days,” whatever that means for them.

We need to go forward…not backward, for our America is still growing and is futuristic. We need to build bridges…not walls.

We must believe in ourselves… and in each other…if we fail… our America fails. And, in this circumstance, failure is not an option. We can have America the beautiful…land of the free and home of the brave. We can have it all. It is up to us. Yes, it is! We are at the precipice of what could be…what can be…and what should be. Let us not falter. Let us do what needs to be done for America and the world.

This is our opportunity to fulfill our aspirations, hopes, dreams, ambitions and potentialities. This is our chance to do “good” for all of us.

Hatred has always been amongst us. It is evil and it kills the human spirit. Hatred has been used to breed divisiveness, disharmony and disunity. Thusly, we can no longer allow hatred to divide Americans along these social, economic and political venues. In today’s world, we need more camaraderie, commitment and compassion. Together, we can make a difference. Sometimes, there is a need for a society of “we,” instead of a society and culture of “me.”

John L. Horton Norfolk

Talk of Clinton

As it pertains to the e-mail

situation: • She gave cronies and foreigners political favors and they gave money to her husband’s foundation. If any normal person had done the same, their clearances would have been immediately revoked…even before any investigation.

• From a technical perspective, it is obvious to any software engineer that the classified markers were removed before programmatically.

She the attached document. If any normal person had done the same to proactively pay folks to create a system that skirts around the classification process, that person would not only have their clearance revoked, but be in prison for 25 years.

I don’t want bad things to happen to any person; however, when you deliberately create systems to undermine security controls, you should be held accountable. Regular folks don’t need to be prosecuted to have clearances revoked. Regular folks are put through hell when dealing with the clearance process.

Not revoking her clearance is a bunch of bull$#!&.

To be honest, I speculate that some groups are purposely delaying the suspension of clearance card until after she becomes president.

It would give a black eye to western democracy as we know it.

I recommend that we add Bernie Sanders back into the mix. I suggest that you research the process of suspending clearances.

FBI input is not required. Some voters actually approve that a cleared person’s husband should

be allowed to take foriegn money through a foundation? It’s virtually impossible to prove intent. My boss can prove that I was late for a meeting; however, it would be almost impossible for him to prove that I intended to be late the meeting.

For regular folks, you don’t have to prove “fn” intent to snatch someone’s clearance. Lord knows that I don’t wish bad on anyone, but her clearance should be snatched. At the end of the day, it just ain’t right.

Elihu El

(from page 6) No longer can the Republican Party hire blacks simply for race insurance. This is about winning the “race” for the White House, not hiring simply because of race. In my columns, over the past four years, I have warned that we would come to this impasse.

But as opposed to embracing my message, the party was too busy attacking me and attempting to discredit me for “being too critical” of the party.

Maybe those black Republicans who have the requisite experience and institutional memory should simply self-identify as a black Democrat; then MAYBE the party will recognize them!

Jackson is founder and chairman of Black Americans for a Better Future (BAFBF), a federally registered 527 Super PAC established to get more Blacks involved in the Republican Party.

Faith & Religion

The LEGACY

Sue for religious freedom? It’s not just for conservatives JEFF BRUMLEY The number of religious freedom bills across the United States may give the impression that using the law to protect faith is a purely conservative pursuit.

Well, it isn’t, said Brent Walker, executive director of the Baptist Joint Committee for Religious Liberty, based in Washington.

“Progressives and conservatives both care about religious liberty — particularly when it’s their own,” he said.

Still, it’s understandable why Americans may get the impression that Christian conservatives alone attempt, often successfully, to work the legal system to their political, social and religious benefit.

Earlier this year, Mississippi Gov.

Phil Bryant signed a bill protecting faith-based organizations and businesses from liability when denying services to LGBTQ people.

North Carolina and Indiana have also passed controversial, high-profile measures.

Of nearly 200 bills proposed in state

legislatures to discriminate against LGBTQ people, 100 invoke religious values as their motivation, CNN reported.

“Kansas passed a law this year allowing campus groups to restrict membership to students based on faith,” the news channel reported.

Legal and religion experts cite the legalization of gay marriage and other advances in LGBTQ rights as the driving force behind conservative efforts to boost the legal protection of their opposing beliefs.

But right-wing values and same-sex marriage aren’t the only faith-based perspectives currently inspiring legal actions. While they are generating less national news, progressives and moderates are taking on government, and sometimes their neighbors, in the name of religious freedom.

Among them is First Parish, a Unitarian Universalist congregation in Bedford, Mass.

Earlier this month, ThinkProgress reported that the 287-year-old church sued the town after being denied a certificate of appropriateness for solar panels it wanted to mount on the roof of its historic meetinghouse.

It argued that the denial is a violation of the congregation’s free exercise of religion as protected under the Massachusetts Declaration of Rights and the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.

The church’s complaint notes that Unitarian Universalist churches

across the nation have taken steps to reduce their consumption of fossil fuels and are embracing other environmentally sustainable practices.

“First Parish … calls upon the faithful to engage in affirmative acts of environmental conservation” which “are essential to their religious practice,” the church said in its court filing.

First Parish’s action also comes under the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act, a federal law aimed to protect individuals, houses of worship and other religious groups from zoning and other land use discriminations.

That church is not alone. In 2014, a group of North Carolina clergy claimed the state’s then-ban against same-sex marriage violated their religious freedom, and calling, to conduct weddings for LGBTQ people, ThinkProgress reported. They filed a challenge that was upheld.

Michael Usey said it all shows that progressives are awakening to the legal avenues — including the Religious Freedom Restoration Act — available to them to promote and protect their causes.

“There is a misunderstanding that separation [of church and state] means that congregations and groups can’t try to engage in public debate,” said Usey, pastor of College Park Baptist Church in Greensboro, N.C. The congregation actively and vocally opposed North Carolina’s Amendment 1. Passed by voters in 2014, it tightened the state’s existing ban on marriage equality. It was struck down as unconstitutional later that year.

Usey said similar cases are springing up around the country.

More churches need to speak up for justice.

“There was a guy in Florida arrested for feeding the homeless,” Usey said. “I do think it’s time to be prophetic about these things.”

Historic “Freedom Bell” makes final journey to ring at opening of the national AA museum The Freedom Bell of Williamsburg’s historic First Baptist Church, which tolled this year for the first time since segregation, will make a final journey to Washington, D.C. and ring at the dedication of the National Museum of African American History and Culture attended by President Barack Obama on Sept. 24.

This trip coincides with the 240th anniversary of the historic First Baptist Church – established in the year of the nation’s founding.

“Our congregation was formed secretly in a plantation wood by our brothers and sisters – enslaved and free – who sought simply to worship as they wished, just as our new nation asserted citizens’ unalienable rights,” said First Baptist Church Pastor Rev. Dr. Reginald F. Davis.

“Their courage and our unwavering faith have sustained the First Baptist Church since 1776 through war, segregation and the ongoing struggle for equality.”

“Just last year we set out to restore our long-silent bell so that it might ring out during our 240th year in a call to the nation for healing and justice,” Davis said. “That it will ring on such a day in the presence of our nation’s first African-American president, is a glorious advent that we could not have shared in our prayers or imagined in our wildest dreams.”

First Baptist Church is believed to be the first black Baptist church organized entirely by African Americans, for African Americans.

Acquired by the congregation in 1886, the Freedom Bell was installed above the church’s current sanctuary during its construction in 1956, but soon fell silent due to architectural and mechanical deficiencies. In

2015, under the guidance of a Colonial Williamsburg conservation and operations team, the bell was restored and the church belfry and vestibule renovated so that it could

Rev. Dr. Reginald F. Davis ring anew.

The Let Freedom Ring Challenge called on the nation to visit the historic church during Black History Month in February 2016 and ring the bell for justice, peace and racial healing. Relatives descended from Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings – an enslaved African-American woman whom Jefferson owned – were the first members of the public to ring the bell Feb. 1 following a service featuring the Rev. Jesse Jackson and other luminaries. More than 4,000 people would follow them that month, and the Freedom Bell remains available for visitors to ring.

“For 90 years Colonial Williamsburg has interpreted history, but together with First

Baptist Church we’ve made history,” said Colonial Williamsburg President and CEO Mitchell B. Reiss. “First Baptist’s is a crucial American story that parallels our entire nation’s.

The Freedom Bell embodies both our shared history and our nation’s founding values as we work toward ‘a more perfect union.’”

“For this bell to ring at this moment in history closes an arc in fitting, even poetic fashion. Both our institutions are honored and gratified by the Freedom Bell’s role in this momentous event,” Reiss said.

The Freedom Bell will complete its final journey and return to First Baptist Church before Oct. 16 observances of the congregation’s 240th anniversary.

International faith leader and senior pastor Rev. Dr. Cynthia L. Hale, of the Ray of Hope Christian Church in Decatur, Ga., will deliver the keynote message. The breakfast is scheduled on Sept. 17 from 7:30 a.m. at the Walter E.

Stoney’s plan to transform City Hall includes improving ‘basic services’ Richmond mayoral candidate Levar Stoney last week unveiled his plan to transform City Hall and improve basic services. According to the campaign, highlights include “changing the culture” of city government and embracing innovation and technology.

Continuing to be the candidate of substance and vision, this policy platform follows Stoney’s plan to transform public education and strengthen our schools.

None of what we hope to achieve will get done without a fresh approach to city government. We need a City Hall that cares about the basics. That means filling the potholes and cutting the grass with urgency. My goal is to make Richmond the model of good urban governance, not the cautionary tale it is now.

We also need to recognize that issues like potholes are symptoms of larger systemic problems in city government. City Hall is a sick patient—it has become a place where both employees and residents expect dysfunction and inefficiency.

I will be a hands-on, visible and

transparent Mayor who leads from the top. I will drive a culture of collaboration across departments, promote diversity, and motivate staff to get things done. I will be the champion of accountability. We will measure our outputs as well as our inputs, and the buck will stop with me.

In related news, the Democratic Party of Virginia (DPVA) Chairwoman Susan Swecker last week released a statement in support of the Richmond Democratic Committee's endorsement of Stoney.

"Levar Stoney has the fresh vision and experience needed to lead Richmond into a new chapter in our city’s history. Levar is a principled Democrat with a long history of advocating for restorative justice and progressive values that would be the hallmark of a new Richmond.

The overwhelming support for Levar within the Richmond Democratic Committee speaks volumes about his commitment to fighting for the people of Richmond.

“I’ve had the privilege of knowing Levar Stoney for more than a decade while he has held multiple leadership

Public conversations in Richmond to discuss access to healthy foods and healthy eating The Richmond City Health District is asking community members to hear results of a community assessment and provide feedback to information about how availability of healthy foods and barriers to eating a healthy diet is impacting the health and wellbeing of Richmond residents and neighborhoods.

The first Food Edition Community Conversation is Friday, Sept. 16, from 6 - 8:30 p.m. at the East District Family Resource Center, 2405 Jefferson Ave. The second event takes place Thursday, Sept. 22, from 6 - 8:30 p.m. at Harvest Thrift Store, 3030 Meadowbridge Rd. Free dinner will be served at both gatherings, and there will be raffles for a prize drawing.

Sex Offender Helpline The helpline provides support to communities on issues related to accessing sex offender registration information; responsible use of information; sexual abuse prevention resources; and accessing crime victim support services.

The tips program provides the public an opportunity to report registrants who are failing to comply with registration requirements.

Tips can also be provided at www.parentsformeganslaw.org.

This program is not intended to be used to report police emergencies.

The Richmond City Health District notes that it recently completed a community needs assessment through a series of focus groups engaging residents in discussions about their perceptions of living a healthy lifestyle and particularly, their barriers to accessing and eating healthy foods in their neighborhoods.

“We got a lot of fantastic feedback and are now planning dissemination of that information through the two ‘community conversations,’” according to the department. “We also want to give residents the opportunity to help us prioritize our recommendations and next steps.”

AA Civil War Memorial Museum begins activities HAZEL TRICE EDNEY TEWire - More than 150,000 visitors are expected to attend the official grand opening ceremonies of the Smithsonian's National Museum of African American History and Culture on Saturday, Sept. 24. Therefore, in order to coordinate satellite events and distribute accurate and detailed public information on the extensive activities and logistics, a D.C. Host Committee has been created.

The Host Committee held a press conference last week to give full details of events leading up to and during the Sept. 24 official opening ceremonies.

Activities will begin Sept. 18, and continue through Sept. 26. They will include plays and concerts as well as events hosted by the Martin Luther King, Jr. Library and the African

American Civil War Museum.

Further, on the day of the opening, there will be hourly shuttles from the African American Civil War Museum to a site within proximity to the National Museum of African American History and Culture (NMAAHC). All activities will be free and open to the public.

African American Civil War Memorial Museum, 1925 Vermont Ave. NW., in Washington, D.C., will be a place where all Americans can learn about the richness and diversity of the African American experience, what it means to their lives and how it helped shape this nation.

“A place that transcends the boundaries of race and culture that divide us, and becomes a lens into a story that unites us all,” according to the Host Committee. “The African American Civil War Memorial allows

the nation to finally pay tribute to the gallant acts of the African American soldiers of the Civil War, who answered when America called

for help. These troops brought an end to slavery and reunited a torn country. The nation deserves an opportunity to honor their sacrifices.”

15 years later: 9-11 examined Sunday marked 15 years since the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on America. On that day, 2,753 people in Manhattan, 184 at the Pentagon, and 40 in Shanksville, Pa., perished.

One of the legacies of that tragedy: The service and sacrifice of our military men and women and their families through the two long conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan. U.S. combat troops have been withdrawn but military actions continue; so do deployments connected to the conflict in Syria, the refugee crisis in greater Middle East, and the constant domestic response to challenges such as hurricanes here at home.

This week provides a poignant opportunity for all to find out more about the challenges faced by military families who went to war folliwing 9-11 and are on guard every day—challenges including achieving a higher education.

ThanksUSA, the national non-

Virginians from all walks of life paused on 9-11 to remember those lost 15 years ago. profit organization that provides post-secondary school scholarships to military spouses and children seeks to increase the number of scholarships ten-fold starting this academic year. ThanksUSA is led by retired Marine Lieutenant Colonel Kevin Schmiegel.

According to the Department of Defense (2014 Demographics Report), 560,000 active-duty members claim 1.1 million children as dependents.

There are nearly 700,000 military spouses and more than 100,000 children aged 17 to 22 in active-duty households.

While unemployment for veterans sits at an all-time low of 4 percent, military spouse unemployment lingers at a staggering rate of 18 percent; and 38 percent of spouses are considered underemployed based on their level of education.

Red Cross: Donors of all blood types needed to maintain a diverse life-saving supply During National Sickle Cell Awareness Month, the American Red Cross is urging eligible donors to give blood to help ensure a stable and diverse blood supply for patients in need.

Blood donors may be helping patients like 11-year-old Martin Mwita who has sickle cell disease.

His body doesn’t produce enough healthy red cells to carry adequate oxygen through his body, so he relies on monthly transfusions to stabilize his health.

Red blood cells carry markers that determine one’s blood type, and some blood types are unique to certain racial and ethnic groups. Because blood from donors of the same ethnic background as the recipient is less likely to cause complications, the Red Cross notes that it must maintain a diverse blood supply to meet these diverse patient needs.

Whether blood is needed for a

Study finds promise in new class of anti-cancer drugs A new class of platinum-based drugs has shown significant antimetastatic effects in fighting cancer, according to a study led by a Virginia Commonwealth University chemistry professor and cancer researcher.

The study, “Antiangiogenic platinum through glycan targeting,” which was published in the August edition of Chemical Science, found that polynuclear platinum-based drugs are effective by identifying new targets in tumor cells, which had previously been unidentified for platinum-based anti-cancer drugs.

Chemical Science is the flagship journal the U.K.-based Royal Society of Chemistry, publishing research of exceptional significance from across the chemical sciences.

“We think our findings are very

significant because it gives a whole new direction to platinum-based drugs,” said Nicholas Farrell, Ph.D., a professor in the Department of Chemistry in the College of Humanities and Sciences and a member of the Developmental Therapeutics research program at VCU Massey Cancer Center. “And it gives us a whole new understanding of what was going on with the original drugs. It’s an area that might have been overlooked for 30 years. It’s opening up a whole new avenue of research for platinumbased drugs.”

The results, Farrell said, hold the possibility for expanding the cancers treatable by platinum-based drugs and could lead to the production of more cancer-specific drugs.

agents,” he said.

Cancer treatment with drugs that can act on multiple levels hold promise for more effective combinations, Farrell said, overcoming limitations such as resistance to single-targeted drugs, as well as enhancing tumor selectivity. Development of new medicines and new chemical entities, which may simultaneously attack a range of targets, would represent a significant addition to the anti-cancer armamentarium, he said.

The research team’s preliminary in vivo findings — conducted in collaboration with former Massey Center Cancer Cell Signaling research program member K. Takabe, M.D., Ph.D., and VCU post-doctoral researcher E. Katsuta, M.D., Ph.D. — were presented at The American Association for Cancer Research annual meeting in April.

A major goal of cancer research is to develop new drugs that prevent metastasis and limit the primary tumor to a relatively localized site, thereby allowing for more effective drug intervention at that site.

The effectiveness of chemotherapy is limited by metastasis — the development of secondary malignant growths — when the tumor spreads away from the primary site of occurrence, sometimes years later, Farrell said.

Platinum-based drugs are a mainstay of anti-cancer treatment, with approximately 50 percent of all cancer patients receiving the drugs.

With this new research, Farrell and his collaborators have demonstrated the effectiveness of polynuclear platinum-based drugs in combating metastasis.
