[applause] >> hello, everyone. we are about ready to wrap up the program. it is only fitting that we close a program with the father. come on up. [applause] >> thank you, misty. -- thank you, thank you. let me say, thank you all for being here.

look at what you're looking at before you see reality. ferguson, i'm from st. louis. years,been saying or 50 set your watch back three hours. i can't believe that you look at what you look that and really didn't see it. cop that said, i'll shoot you in front of the cameras, don't be so stupid. no cop is going to say that in front of the cameras policies undermine control. were watching.u the whole world watching and two white cops kill a black man with a knife and you think you're looking at something? all that is planned.

okay. that is what it is about. it's planned. if you look at the most important thing, even more so than the killing, they left them there 4.5 hours. listen to me. kills three children and we run over there and they but toe killed them, take a drug test and alcohol tests. y'all get called up in some bull shit emotion. huh? right in front of your face. then the cops came out, the police chief. wait a minute, we have a video here of him in the convenient

store. armed robbery. he has a gun. they release the video. trunks.n white he's laying down on the ground. flip flops on. see what happens when you get so emotional? , an when we examine that friend of mine called me.

said, have you been looking at the pictures? it was dated june 6. y'all know that. june. hitting get killed until august 9. cutting your tv off and going to bed. , they areshow you showing you that for a reason. watch this. in, the folks downtown don't know if he has been kidnapped. within a every cop car 50 mile radius. you didn't see cars. and halfhere for four hours.

that don't bother you? do we go in and do the right investigation. what happene >> what happened in kent state, the national guard was there. one of the students in the crowd stand up to the national guard. the students chase him. he went right to the national guard there because he was the national guard and they spent almost $50 million in lawsuits. hum? $50 million in lawsuits paying off. so you think you see it and you don't see it. the press is sitting there talking to not one person on the press talking about how could he lay there for four hours? >> right. >> the mother came up. they wouldn't let mercy him.

hum? >> right. >> then, how many of y'all is aware that four and a half hours, they took him away in a black s.u.v.? >> right. right. >> with no markings on it. >> right. >> then he kept it. the police department has no records for that car. where did they take him? hum? where did where did they take him. >> that's what you looked at and you didn't see it because the press, they are not as stupid as you think they are. they tell you what you are supposed to see. hum? >> right. >> so somewhere, when we sit and look at this, and i am on the radio all over the country, all over, they are telling me rebellion. a rebellion is something you plan. you pick the time and the day. a rebellion is something you wait until the cops to to the

black man. y'all get so embarrassed. it's a ride. in 1968, when them cops beat up them white children, they called it a police riot, not a rebellion. y'all always trying to cover yourself because somebody is going to embarrass. who cares? hum? you have never seen a cop put a choke hold on, on a mafia or a drug pusher or a pimp or a whore. why do you get embarrassed? this is a game. they are getting serious now. when you thought that tear gas, some of y'all know, that's been outlawed. united nations, for wartime. >> he's right. >> y'all better wake up and see what they are doing. you don't have to.

hum? where let's go back and sit quietly. hum? and review what you looked at because it was there. it was there. he had a friend with him. where is he? where is the friend that was with him? hum? you cops is in here. some of you learn because you want to learn. it's your job to be here. you know if i am a cop and i am chasing you and this is your partner what makes me think y'all are together? i why am i going to assassinate him and not you? where is he now? he is under f.b.i. witness protection. what do he know?

hum? so tonight, when you leave here and get into your -- hum? and you see things that they showed you because they knew you wouldn't see it. somewhere, a big ol' bag of money came in there from this town where you think mom and pop got that money to hide for, for edgesic. the town has 50% pun employment, 70% black. hum? everything that counts is white. police department got 50 people on it and three of them are black and two of them are women. hum? and they are getting ready to shut it down. how many of y'all read the

paper? hum? what did i say the name of it? now, the biggest, baddest, blackest terrorist is named what? hum? isis. >> out of all of the crap going out on this planet, some little punk nobody know where he come from with billions of dollars and his name is the same as what the sister named. y'all don't see that? somewhere. so, i just say thanks to the brothers for always opening up for us here. always opening up for us here. somewhere asays to you, i've watched this. i know more about it than anybody. i had people from britain, cops calling me saying, what do you think this is? you know what it is. you know what it is.

the day they stole the plane, i knew it was garcia. they knew i knew. ain't no damn plane assistant district attorney. >> that's why black foes ride greyhound. greyhound bus ain't never disappeared. never disappeared. i leave you tonight. >> thank you, brother. >> say thank you? thank you. thank you, my brother, always. thank you. thank you. [applause.]. >> give it up for dick gregory. >> thank you, brother dick. listen, brothers, it's been a long evening. thank you for your patience. we are going to wrap it up now with final remarks by dr. ron daniels, president of the institute of the black world,

21st century. another round [applause.] . >> how is everybody doing? is everybody all right? are we in a fighting mood? are we ready to resist? y'all don't sound like it. are you ready to resist? we are talking about. first of all, let's give it up again for andy shalol, wpfw, ipf. let's give it up [applause.] >> now, we want you to just wait a few minutes. we are almost done. i want to say a bit about us working together because the brother from howard university spoke to that. right? >> yes. he did. >> and let me just say this: we are all here on this panel. >> yes. >> we do not belong to the same organization. but we do all work together. >> that's right. >> there is a concept called operational unity. >> that's right. >> that is to say we don't have to give up our individual

organization or identities in order for us to, in fact, work together in collaboration and, in fact, this is one of the things that ibw, one of the things that i am doing specifically. i used to say it's not wintertime. >> that's the focus. it's building on collaboration so that we all can share knowledge with each other and work together. so the brother from howard university is absolutely right but is that doesn't mean we have to all do the same things. >> that's right [different people can take different pieces of it. we have hillary shelton. the legal defense fund. not fund. you taundz talk about what's happening with legislation, those two right there, they got our back. no question about it. the voting rights act, all of the stuff about voter suppression. you hear that right there. >> warrior woman. she has our back. so we need to just figure out how we speak to each other, communicate with each other more

aggressive way. an agenda. i am sure we agree with almost everything in that agenda. we need to coordinate together in that regard. no final nations, anger without an organization is futile. ray said many, many years ago? what? the people must be organized. >> yes. >> over and over again, he said, the people must be organized. >> so we must end the disconnectedness, distortion in black communities -- disorganizati disorganization. >> that's one of the things we do. we have justice collaborative right here in washington, d.c. we have organizations that meets with his church every three months, organizations that come together to talk about how do we collaborate? some are here they haven't given up any identity. we figure out how can we work together to be more strategic and focused in moving forward? we need justice collaboratives. we have philadelphia. we are working in pittsburgh.

we are working hard to try to do baltimore. we need these justice collaboratives because we must be organized. sister patters is part of the black family summit. she is an african senate black professional organizations. psychiatrist, social workers. they have not sold out for a paycheck. they are here to work in our communities. they do that work. i was reading an article, psychologists are on the ground right now. and we have to respect them, connect with them and work with them. what i want to make is we have to use every tool at our disposal. we know that we have to have an inside/outside strategy because brother hillary and them are talking about this legislation. sometimes, they don't listen to us. maybe we have to do like the dream defenders did and down in florida. maybe we may have to go and march on capitol and sit down and fit in until they pass the legislation that we need. we need to get ungovernorable.

too much novocaine in our movement. let's march on capitol hill and sit there because the reality is, we've got some right-wing reactionaries, the tea party who could care less about us unless we force them to understand what we are about. so we've got to be able to do that. civil disobedience and let me just say this: we have $1.2 trillion in our hands. we need to use economic sanctions. we need to use boycotts. they talked about that in ferguson, where the stores and all of these shops very often are owned by people other than us. >> that's not an indictment but they certainly ought to be contributing something to us. they can't contribute something to us, they need to be out of our community. i am going to make this point. with trayvon martin, we are just a little organization. we are not, you know, all of the talking heads. we don't get them opportunities. we say trayvon martin, we needed

to let micky and minnie play with themselves for a change. we need to have an economic sanctions campaign. if you want to go up against the koch brothers, we could have went up against the koch brothers. we spend billions of dollars in fraud in terms of the hospitality industry. all we had to do, fort lauderdale, alone, the money we spend. mickie and minnie. we are we can withdraw. let them play with themselves for a while. if we had done that, they would have changed the stand your ground law. we would have went up against the most powerful forces in this country. we could defeat theme because the people united will never be defeated. we have to get organized. i have to say this. i am going to say it. no national civil rights leader will call for at a time economic sanctions campaign. this is just little 'ol us.

the people on the streets were ready for the economic sanctions campaign. but we could not get any, like nobody equalled for it and we wonder why. you know, maybe it's because, actually, you look up in these conferences and conventions and the sponsorship coming from all of these corporations. all of these cores. these are my friends. i love them. they are great people. but at a certain point, the economic benefits from this changing to give it up is not worth taking the fire out of our movement. in terms of economic sanctions as well. finally, to stress this point tonight, it is time for young leaders to take the lead. young leaders must take the lead on this issue. i say that because it's a matter of principle. those being most affected on the

streets and harassed are among left of young people. since they are the ones being affected, they should be at the center and in the lead. so i am saying that, you know, i am al lifetime member of the nacp. i support the urban league and a number of other organizations. i don't want to see them sit down on the case. i am saying this constructively. without them, we would not be where we are today, but there also comes a time when maybe they should step aside a little bit move over and let these young leaders take the lead. the december movement has called for a gather in october. i don't know whether that can happen or not. but the theme from the night should be young leaders must take the lead. reverend sharpton, i understand, is contemplating another march on washington. reverend sharpton does some

really, really great things. maybe we need two marches but for sure whether it's a gathering or a march, we need one that is exclusivelyled by young people. young people must take the lead. we must support them in that [applause.] >> i am going to make this point as an example. the historic march, he got up to speak, and a lot of people's my microphones were being cut off. i am sure it was after dinner, but how is it that the most powerful movement, one of them two movements, moral monday and the dream defenders. how do they end up not being allocated sufficient time to get their point across? how is it that phillip agnew

didn't get a chance to talk? well, it was after dinner probably. but if you have a young leaders' led march, that would never happen because we need to stand back. >> we need to step aside. we need to move over, let them speak, let us organize. >> thank you. >> folks, the dream defenders step up. we ain't got to worry about. they are stepping up. belafonte has mentored hundreds of young leaders, the hip-hop caucus. rosa. the malcolm x grassroots movements, students against incarceration. cal e-mail, leaders of a beautiful struggle. thealgia gras, the conscious ones and yes, the howard university government association is in the house, and they are organizing students all

over the country. so let the word go out. move over. step aside, reverend sharpton and other civil rights leaders. let the young people take the lead. young people must take the lead. i close with this quote from malcolm x. we are on this earth to be a human being, to be respected as a human being, to be given the rights of a human being in this society on this earth in this day, which we intend to bring to existence by any means necessary. we site freedom by any means necessary. freedom. freedom. freedom. freedom. freedom. i can't hear you. freedom. >> let's get it done.
