Entertainment was the matter that they live and singing, so we focused on making sure they had dance lessons and vocal lessons and things that they needed and wanted to do. Whatever my kids wanted, I wanted to be the dad that supported their dream and supported their passion.I grew up in segregation. My mother went to high school with Coretta King. Being one of the first African-American atLitchfield junior high. Having state troopers take me to school everyday, having parents outside with signs saying very negative things about a new kid. I always had a dream for myself, I had always given myself 20 years in corporate America, I wanted to be in the music industry and it was happening at the same time that my oldest daughter, Beyonce had a dreaming that she wanted to be in the music industry.Our family comes from a very diverse background and I use our place as an example that we came from an environment that was not the best economically. But we came from an environment where national was pregnant and a lot of love. To be where we are today, truly reflects America and the opportunities that be in America. Our kids, Beyonce, Solange and Kelly saw their parents work extremely hard everyday. I think those work ethics is what really drives them today. I tell young people never give up on their dreams. It won`t receive the first time_even Destiny`s Child, they got dropped by a major record label before they got signed. I just conceive that one of the things we always need to consider is that it`s not going to be perfection. I think that if we see that we go toward a common goal, inside of negatively is often an opportunity. That`s the big thing that we discuss, change in America.
