Getting them thru High School would be a start. Last year Chicago Public High Schools celebrated a record graduation rate at 65.4%. That means 34.6% failed and will now go thru life as a high school dropout and likely needy, whether they be working or not. Sadly the graduation rate for African American males is 44%. More than half don't graduate.

Ultimately I think setting up McD's CEO Donald Thompson as a role model would be much more serving to the community rather than say Chief Kieff, an 18-year old rapper-gangbanger currently in rehab avoiding more jail time. Yet you'll never hear that from the imposters posing as community saviors, Jesse Jackson Sr. being one of the most obvious.
