YOUNG AFRICAN AMERICAN CEO DANTE LEE FEATURED AS A PANELIST AT TAVIS SMILEY LEADERSHIP INSTITUTE


Bookcover - "How To Think Big"
By Dante Lee

Columbus, OH (BlackNews.com) - Dante Lee, the 25-year old CEO and president of Diversity City Media, will be a featured panelist at the Tavis Smiley Foundation Leadership Institute in Houston on July 21-25 at Texas Southern University.

The Institute is a four-day conference that trains youth ages 13-18 who aspire to learn skills common to effective leaders. The conference will provide students with a better understanding of their personal leadership strengths and weaknesses, and will offer them a blueprint for how to use their skills to promote positive community change.

Lee will participate in the special Teen Town Hall meeting on the Covenant with Black America moderated by Tavis Smiley and featuring Dr. Cornel West, author and actor Hill Harper, and Christina Sanders, past president of the Texas Southern University Student Government Association.



Lee will also be on-site signing copies of his motivational book - How To Think Big...When You're Small.

*This Younger Brother (Lol!) is the CEO and President of Diversity City Media. Dante did a press release on me a while back. I did not know the Brutha was 25 yrs of age. I felt this would be a good thing to pass on to all the bright and aspiring intellectuals, Men and Women (all age groups counted), that we have at this site. I would love to be able to sit down and talk with Dr. Cornell West and chat with Tavis Smiley. Dante is also from what I recall and affiliate with this site:
(BlackNews.com & BlackPR.com).
I have to give credit where due.*
