We have seen marching and chanting in the streets of U.S. cities where police have killed unarmed citizens. We've heard demands for social justice. We have also heard demands for jobs and economic opportunities. All of these things are possible with new leadership in the houses of government, which can open the doors of economic opportunity for young entrepreneurs who are prepared to introduce products and services to the global marketplace. The question is, are the youth who provide the energy of protest prepared with a strategy to run the cities by choosing and electing leaders with a new and better vision of how to create a fair and just society? Today's guests, 16 year old activist Lamon Reccord and 16 year old ordained minister Rev. Zachary Love discuss strategies for empowerment. Coach Ernest Radcliff discusses the responsibility of adults to provide guidance and mentor ship to today's youth.
