America's Got Talent

"AGT" is the Super Bowl

of entertainment.

This show is the voice

of the people.

Let's get this show started!

This show is about

the American dream.

We just witnessed

absolute brilliance.

I think we just watched

history in the making.

People at home are talking

about this moment.

Oh!

I'm gonna remember

this moment

for the rest of my life.

So where you coming from?

North Dakota.

Originally from Texas.

Indiana.

California.

Chicago.

Talent is in the house.

This show can change you.

You have an opportunity

for your dreams to come true.

If you believe in yourself,

you can do anything you want.

Let's go!

all: Okay.

all: Okay.

There's that Detroit.

Yeah.

Detroit.

You all know I'm from Flint?

Oh.

The Detroit Youth Choir

is a community-based choir.

We have a lot

of inner-city kids.

Some of them have

bad home situations

or they could be in the

streets. There's violence.

We give them

something positive

to come and be a part of.

You all ready?

Yes.

You nervous?

Yes, I'm nervous,

but I'm ready for this.

Mr. White knows things that

Detroit children go through,

so he's able to help us

feel safe

and fix those things

through music or dance.

All right, here we go.

You can take that little bit

of talent and pour some water

on it and grow it.

Be proud of what

you represent, okay?

For sure.

All right, give me a hug. Aw.

Let me tell you, Mr. White,

people like you are the reason

I am where I am right now,

and let me tell you,

all it takes is one person

to believe that you can do it,

and you have that,

and that's more than so

many people have on this Earth.

Our mission is to show

that young people

from Detroit can be somebody.

They're still coming.

Whoo!

Now that is an entrance.

Welcome.

Thank you.

And tell us who you

are, please.

We are

the Detroit Youth Choir.

Detroit.

Okay, and you are obviously

the choir director.

Yes, I'm the choir director,

Anthony White.

Anthony White,

nice to meet you.

Tell me how this choir came up.

What was the idea

behind it, please?

Well, I've been the director

of this wonderful youth group

for a little over 21 years.

Oh, wow.

And we're here to let

the world know

that we have some

wonderful young people

in the city of Detroit,

and--yes.

They all have great grades,

and they're all talented.

Wow. Is he strict?

Yeah.

But you're all friends.

Yeah.

Okay, so what would you love

or dream of happening

if you do well on this show?

A million dollars, you know?

That's--

I like her.

I actually love choirs,

and we've never had

a choir win the show.

Well, this could

be the first.

Okay.

Well, good luck.

Let's do it.

DYC, get up

on the dance floor.

Oh!

Trust me, on my I-N-D-E-P-E-

Yeah!
