B-TheMovement's purpose was birthed in their dorm room after participating in the “Geeked up” challenge. Terrence and Terry were tired of the usual videos being posted glamorizing societal “norms” of drugs, sex, and other negative images. They decided to don their suits and perform a short video telling the world that it is ok to be young and educated, while working to achieve our goals.

The video went viral with over 50,000,000 views in its first few days on social media.  Due to the massive response, Terry and Terrence decided to start a movement for youth promoting positive intellect. We believe in the old adage "It takes a village to raise a child". They affiliate themselves with people from all cultures, nationalities, and other social barriers. The mission starts in our own communities, uplifting youth while joining hands with other diverse groups, showing our generation something greater can be achieved together.

B-TheMovement is quoted, "If we join hands together and touch youth of all colors, we can be a movement that personifies excellence of children from all backgrounds and nationalities. Dr. Martin Luther King had a dream that one day we would all join together for a greater good. We embody his philosophy and are doing our part to make our nation greater."
