Knight Foundation's BME reinforces good works of Detroit's African American men

Knight's Black Male Engagement program is rolling forward in Detroit and Philadelphia. Since BME launched, over 1,000 African American men have shared their stories. It offers a chance for community leaders to talk about their projects and connect with others doing similar work in Detroit.

One of the participants is Curtis Lipscomb of KICK, and organization that supports LGBT African Americans. In his BME video, Lipscomb says he's worked with over 3,000 people in nearly 20 years of service.
