Tyrese does an incredible job here, laying out a passionate and articulate vision for why kids need to "make (being) smart sexy" and a priority in their lives. 5MK (5 MILLION KIDS)is a national initiative, with the first leg launched on-the-ground in partnership with LAUSD and LAUSD Superintendent Ramon Cortines in Los Angeles schools.
Watch the video. Share it with family and friends, and then go to www.5mk.org and find your own way to make a 5MK Pledge, to help.
Onward with HOPE

Love, Love, Loved the speech..we definately need more positive black men out here helping our youth. The last statement of your speech brought me to tears. I know there are more people like you and I who dream with there eye's open. Keep it up Tyrese!

Oop's! I misspelled the word (their) as it was used in your statement; please allow me to correct that Tyrese, just “making smart sexy”! I am a former communications major...just in bed with the flu right now I didn't really proof read that last comment. "I know their are more people like you and I who dream with their eye's open".
