And every Black kid in America should have a chance to hear him. Imagine a generation of our kids aspiring to be Astrophysicists.. And Presidents.. And little Waynes.. And Wiz Kalifas..
Harlem Youth Opportunities Unlimited, more commonly called HARYOU, was a social activism organization founded by Dr. Kenneth Clark in 1962 and directed by Cyril DeGrasse Tyson (father of astrophysicist Neil DeGrasse Tyson, and founding member of the 100 Black Men of America). The group worked to increase opportunities in education and employment for young blacks in Harlem. It also was designed to teach residents of Harlem how to work with governmental agencies to meet their demands.
