Young, Gifted & Black Panel - Congressional Black Caucus 2007

Video of a panel at Congressional Black Caucus Foundation's ALC 2007, hosted by Congresswoman Maxine Waters that included Russell Simmons, Michael Baisden, Hill Harper, Congressman Laura Richardson and artist/poet Taalam Acey. I haven't viewed the entirety of it as of yet. Just wanted to be able to track it down when I have the time. Preliminarily, I noted the self-empowerment and entrepreneurial-capital focus the beginning section, then an audience member brings up the issue of making connections to history (particularly Garvey) and current concerns and efforts.
