Louis Armstrong and William Bell in the White House tomorrow
Posted: Wed Oct 26, 2005 10:58 pm
After the President introduces Laura Bush at the White House Conference on Helping America's youth tomorrow, I'm up, on the subject "Strengthening the Characters of Boys: What We Know and Can Do." I tell Louis Armstrong's story and play "Potato Head Blues" to demonstrate the importance of music, mentors, and opportunity in children's lives.
Then I refer to William Bell as a vitally important figure in my life in the discussion on the five most important things boys need as foundations to develop stong characters.

and listen to a simulcast of the conference here
