Hosted by BET News correspondent Marc Lamont Hill, the one LIVE conversation "BALTIMORE SPEAKS: A BET SPECIAL" will premiere on BET, Centric and the BET NOW App Thursday, May 7 at 8 PM ET/PT and feature a candid and comprehensive conversation with denizens of Baltimore about the events that occurred in the city over the past week and address the challenges our community is facing and look ahead to what can be done to affect positive change.

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.
