John Rice's Management Leadership for Tomorrow program has been instrumental in establishing black professionals in positions of power and influence in America's largest companies. O'Brien also reports on programs aimed at creating opportunities for the next generation of youth leadership. Malaak Compton-Rock's Journey for Change offers teenagers from inner-city schools the opportunity to see the world and develop self-confidence; and Steve Perry, Ed.D.'s, Capital Preparatory Magnet School creates opportunities for leadership and academic excellence by preparing young, black students for college with "tough love." Black in America: Today's Pioneers For the debut evening of CNN's Black in America 2, anchor and special correspondent Soledad O'Brien reports on how community organizers across the country are creating progress and improvements at a local level. From a Chicago barbershop where African-American men are encouraged to seek routine medical check-ups; to Tyler Perry, an actor, director and playwright, whose life's journey has led him from homelessness to becoming a powerful filmmaker and television producer who is creating opportunities for others; to the Black Marriage Day project which works with couples in 300 cities to help develop strong, healthy families; these are the programs and progress of people working in ways large and small to make a difference.
