This video doesn’t contain images of nudity, violence, hood rat beat downs or Kat Stacks, so you probably won’t watch it. And those of you who say I never post positive things on my blog will probably ignore this post like you do all my other positive posts.
But I’m posting this anyway in the hopes that at least one parent or teacher will watch it and use the message to empower their youth.

Dear Sandra Rose,
My name is Jarrett Mathis and I am a recent graduate of Dartmouth College. I am a Government Major. Also, I am a big fan of your blog!
Over the last 5 years, I have worked diligently to craft an interactive workshop that will help to empower black youth and reduce violence in the inner-city. I decided to create a workshop in order to get young people to think seriously about the importance of respect for self and others. I recently transformed this workshop into a documentary, which you can view on my website www.EmpoweringOurselvesNow.com.
I am a young brother who cares deeply about the black community. I think this website/film can have a very positive impact in our community. But, I do not have money for advertising. I would really appreciate it if you could post this information on your blog.
Thank you for your consideration!
All the Best,
Jarrett
