(AP) WASHINGTON--First lady Michelle Obama and singer Alicia Keys
are teaming up to turn the message of a movie about two inner-city boys
battling long odds into a call for the nation to do more to help young people
get the support they need to make it to--and through--college.
The first lady held a White House
screening of "The Inevitable Defeat of Mister & Pete," for
educators and others helping young people make it. The Grammy-winning Keys was
the movie's executive producer and did its score. The movie tells the story of
two boys in New York
left to take care of themselves.
Keys says she's passionate about the
story, and passionate about the need to do better for kids.
