I recently had the pleasure of viewing a press screening of the award winning film “I BRING WHAT I LOVE” featuring the sensational African signer Youssou N’Dour.
I thought it was a beautiful film documenting Youssou’s journey as he uses his music to inspire change.
I’d like to gather a group of Net Impact members & friends together to view the film on Sunday, June 14th
@ 4:30pm.
Venue: The Paris Theater, 4 West 58th Street
Show date & Time: Sunday, June 14 @ 4:30pm
The bigger the group we have the better the chance of getting discounted tickets ($8 vs. $12)

Youssou N’Dour: I BRING WHAT I LOVE, is a music-infused cinematic journey about the power of one man’s voice to inspire change. The film follows N’Dour, the highest selling African artist of all time and a devout Sufi Muslim, as he releases a deeply personal and religious album called Egypt in the hope of promoting a more tolerant face of Islam. Almost instantly, his fellow Senegalese reject the album, and denounce his actions as blasphemous. Director Elizabeth Chai Vasarhelyi follows N’Dour for over two years – filming in Africa, Europe, and America – to tell the story of how he faces these challenges and eventually wins over audiences both at home and abroad.
The film’s inspiring personal story, gorgeous footage, and fun beats brings to life Africa as a place of beauty and dignity, reveals the possibility of tolerance among religions and cultures, and shows how one man who lives by his convictions can create positive change through music.
