Rihanna Discusses White House Partnerships

rih_cyrus250While many people saw Rihanna reenacting the role of Olivia Pope at the White House (which by the way was uber cute), it turns out she had some actual political business to discuss.

Rihanna also met with administration officials about potential areas of partnership like working on the President’s “My Brother’s Keeper” initiative. Just a little FYI on MBK.

The MBK Community Challenge encourages communities (cities, rural municipalities, and tribal nations) to implement a coherent cradle-to-college-and-career strategy for improving the life outcomes of all young people to ensure that they can reach their full potential, regardless of who they are, where they come from, or the circumstances into which they are born.

The six goals of the Challenge are:

-Ensuring all children enter school cognitively, physically, socially and emotionally ready
-Ensuring all children read at grade level by 3rd grade
-Ensuring all youth graduate from high school
-Ensuring all youth complete post-secondary education or training
-Ensuring all youth out of school are employed
-Ensuring all youth remain safe from violent crime

While we wait to see what comes out of those meetings, enjoy Rih’s best impression of Olivia Pope.
