Obama Mentored Black Teens

President Obama quietly mentored several black teenagers last year, the Washington Post reported Sunday. The Post profiled the young men of Chicago's Hyde Park Academy ahead of a forthcoming initiative on young men of color. Obama confessed the aimless ways of his youth in a meeting with the teenagers last February, then invited them to the White House last spring, even showing them his private study off the Oval Office. In return, the teens gave Obama a Father's Day card. "These guys are no different than me, and we had that conversation about what does it take to change," Obama said recently.
