HARLEM, NY — A Harlem nonprofit has no intention of slowing down even after it already helped thousands of local students over the last three decades prepare for college and career readiness through the arts.
Sound Business, Inc. — or SBI, for short — oversees a student arts program out of A. Phillip Randolph High School that puts on all manners of performances from gospel music, to contemporary dance, to talent showcases.
The arts are a gateway for the nonprofit's larger focus since its 1991 founding of preparing Harlem students for the next phases of their lives...

"Equality is the heart and essence of democracy, freedom, and justice, equality of opportunity in industry, in labor unions, schools and colleges, government, politics, and before the law. There must be no dual standards of justice, no dual rights, privileges, duties, or responsibilities of citizenship. No dual forms of freedom."
Asa Philip Randolph
"Nothing counts but pressure, pressure, more pressure and still more pressure through broad organized aggressive mass action."
