Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth, filmed while the former #boxing champ performed his one-man show on Broadway, premieres on November 16th at 8PM. Only on HBO.


*HBO just released a new trailer for the premiere of “Mike Tyson: Undisputed Truth,” the Spike Lee-directed film version of the boxer’s one-man stage show.
In the clip, Tyson figures that he was arrested “over 38 times” by the time he was 12-years-old, dishes about infamous anger problems and takes a few mock swings.
The film is drawn from the Lee-produced show that Mike Tyson performed in Las Vegas, Broadway and on tour.
While a previously released teaser had set a serious tone, the new trailer showcases more humor. The clip trots out a memorable one-liner from the boxer: “I know many are probably wondering, what the hell is Mike Tyson going to do up here onstage here tonight — you know, frankly, I’m wondering the same thing.”
Here’s HBO‘s official trailer:

Harlem News Group; NYC FUNDRAISER HELPS HARRIET’S HEART YOUTH MAKE A JOURNEY OF THE HEART

Two nonprofit organizations
joined forces for a March 20
New York City fundraiser to help
send Harriet's Heart on a missionary
trip to Kenya. Seven, of the nineteen,
young women of African-American,
Latina, and Caribbean decent, known as
"Harriet's Heart," are part of a four-year
effort that selects and guides girls into
womanhood -- helping young women
develop leadership and life skills, and
providing assistance with completing
high school, while helping families
with the money and other resources to
fund college.
Founder, Pamela Salaam Jaha,
gave birth to Harriet's Heart as a revitalization
of the principal, "it takes a
whole village," challenging corporations,
athletes, entertainers, professionals,
civic leaders, elected officials, and
ordinary people to be a part of the solution,
preparing leaders of tomorrow by
embracing the role of educating and
investing in our children today. "I
believe it is the responsibility of all of
us to lead our children and our communities
to social leadership, economic
strength, political promise, and academic
excellence! I know that ordinary people
can make a change, such is when
and how we become Extra-Ordinary,”
says Salaam, the proud surrogate mother
of 19 girls.
Project54Tour, and GirlSpirit
WomenSong Inc., (GSWS) united to
help support Harriet's Heart, an extraordinary
group of young women whose
name pays tribute to civil rights leader
Harriet Tubman. Each girl represents
one of Tubman's nineteen courageous
journeys on the Underground Railroad.
"We have a responsibility to help young
girls become successful, confident
women," said Naomi Silie, Esq., Commissioner,
The Bronx Democratic
Board of Elections who provided
remarks at Friday's fundraiser.
Project54Tour Founder and
Executive Director, Chris Surrey added,
"The upcoming missionary trip will
offer a meaningful volunteer opportunity
that will help engage, empower and
educate the citizens of Africa by
improving the socio-cultural benefits
that change lives for the better."
The fundraiser was held on Friday,
March 20th at Katra located at 217
Bowery Street in New York City
brought together a "village" of professionals
from all fields and backgrounds
to help raise additional funds for the
mission - keeping Salaam's vision and
promise alive. Black Enterprise Editorial
Director, and Black Enterprise Business
Report Correspondent, Sonia
Alleyne served as host of the fundraising
event. Celebrity guests and community
leaders such as Yarc Lewinson,
actor from Spike Lees' Miracle at St.
Anna; CNN and Reuters-TV Reporter,
Diane King attended the red carpet
affair. Owner & CEO, Double XXposure
Media Relations, Angelo Ellerbee,
provided remarks, introduce Ms.
Alleyne and kicked off an impromptu
fundraising by passing a "collection
bucket" around during his address.
Each of the two nonprofit organizations
involved in the March 20
event will continue to serve those in
need despite the tough economy and a
drastic decline in volunteers and donations.
Anyone interested in making a
contribution to support the cause can do
so online at: www.project54tour.org
(under Contact Us) or by sending a
check made payable to "Project54Tour
Aid Program, Inc." to The Buzz International
