natives, Kanye West and Common have joined forces to bring over 20,000 jobs to their
hometown.
Common recently announced during a press
conference that his Common Ground Foundation will be working with Kanye West's Donda's House, Inc. and the Chicago Urban League in an initiative to bring employment opportunities through The Chicago Youth Jobs Collaborative.
92 percent of the Black youth in Chicago is unemployed, which
means that many of these kids are on the streets.
And we've all read the gruesome headlines about Chicago's cruel streets.
But what's worse is Chicago has become the center of the national gun
debate, and the city's youth has taken the hardest
hit from gun violence.
