A Conversation With Wyclef Jean
Description

Hip-hop recording artist Wyclef Jean grew up poor in Haiti, but is now considered one of the richest Haitians in the world. In an interview with host Peggy Wehmeyer, he talks about his relief foundation, which distributes food in Haitian neighborhoods considered too violent for other relief groups to enter. It also renovates schools, provides scholarships, and uses hip-hop musicians to teach people about HIV/AIDS.
