I am proud to serve on the board of the recently launched My Brother's Keeper Alliance, which aims to eliminate the gaps in opportunity and achievement - making the American dream available to all," said Debra L. Lee, Chairman and CEO, BET Networks. "There is much more work to be done to impact the critical issues that are devastating our communities.
