Check out footage from John Legend's recent visit to the International Rescue Committee's Refugee Youth Summer Academy in Brooklyn. The academy prepares newly arrived refugee youth ages 5 to 19 to succeed in New York City public schools. In his role as an IRC Voice, John visited with these students and volunteers to learn about the program.
