Dwayne Moore is an educator, artist, GOP State Committeeman, and an emerging conservative public speaker whose journey from liberal roots to bold conservative leadership has made him a powerful voice for faith, family, and accountability in America. Raised in Queens, New York — one of the most diverse communities in the country — Dwayne developed a unique cultural fluency that has guided his work across education, the arts, business, and politics. After earning his degree in Sociology with a minor in Africana Studies, he served as an English teacher and college counselor in Newark, NJ, where he mentored hundreds of students and witnessed firsthand the impact of failing schools, broken families, and misguided policies on young lives.

Beyond education, Dwayne built a career in the arts as a model, actor, and musician, using his creativity as a platform for storytelling and social critique. His original project Toxic Sensitivity, a comedy critiquing modern culture, was selected for the Newark International Film Festival. In 2024, at just 29 years old, he ran as a Republican candidate for the New York State Assembly in District 29, securing the highest vote total for a Republican in more than 30 years by flipping Democratic voters with a message centered on education reform, lowering taxes, and strengthening families. He now serves as a State Committeeman for the New York Republican Party and is a graduate of the Leadership Institute’s Campaign Leadership School in Washington, D.C.

Dwayne is a consistent contributor on Newsmax, where he joins hosts T.W. Shannon and Lidia Curanaj to deliver sharp, unapologetic commentary on politics, culture, and the future of the country. His voice has become a trusted perspective for audiences hungry for truth and common sense, blending his experiences as a teacher, candidate, and thought leader to address the challenges facing working-class and minority communities.

Today, Dwayne also serves as a consultant to Republican campaigns, specializing in message strategy for urban communities, coalition building, and persuasive public speaking. He provides speech coaching and training for leaders and candidates who want to connect authentically with diverse audiences. His forthcoming book — soon to be released — will chronicle his journey from liberal to conservative, while offering sharp commentary on faith, culture, and America’s future.
