to push me off in the said it was the culture blue box. truly the new ones would the because it's always more use to meet the teacher could contribute usually. so would you try to walk on? yeah. cuz really knew from the moment that she's in the venue, it's not a monumental charged rock on the

me again. so when they say, why did you burn down the community? why do you know neighborhood? it's not or we don't own anything. we don't have anything, there is a social contract that we all and that if you feel or i feel the person who is the authority come in and they fix that situation. but the point is that the weights in the contract, when you can definitely think about you talking about a 100 year, we played your game bill. you're well

the burning and it still wouldn't be enough. and they are lucky that what black people are looking for a quality and not revenge limiter. when they are there, i didn't leave to be about black men died under the need of a white police officer. yeah. you don't get in there. in that moment, they became every black life they captured on video was every person enslaved. every person in chains. every person who lived under the wit, every person lynched from a tree, ordered to the back of the bus. every day,

unless faceless person was told they live, did not matter. the diff, george floyd gives his name to those nameless in his cries, we hear the cries of hundreds of years and the unknown dead. and a world away. i see all those cries and they sound so for me again, this is what history sounds like to us. with bery he read on it. i don't care why you watch that video and i dare you not to be angry. the you watch

the video of a police officer thumping the life of a man with his knee on his neck. 8 minutes and 46 seconds. and excruciating. and when people see that video, they don't see george floyd's life being snuffed out. you know, they see actually the centuries of brutality and racism in this country in america has been here before the rice riots of the 19 sixty's on the streets of los angeles in the 1990. 0, the added minneapolis today. and the message is the same for black america, the land of the free has never felt truly for it. ah,

me. the wellspring of anger, of actually goes to centrally unresolved question in the united states, which is that the core, the foundation of the country, which has been founded on slavery and jennifer maga, with white supremacy tension. we will even like supremacy on tonight. and if it's black legal, inferior growing on the bus, she rested, sounded mother grabbed henrich, calling from the rear y from the front supremacy law of the law, the land. and we've had to overcome quite felicity, blood filling inferior judy. even the plan for you who are the even one on the fire . we've heard george floyd's words here. straight in prisons. they were david don, guy junior's last words. in 2015 before he died in the hospital ward of sidney's

long bay prison. oh, the current found lack of oxygen while he was restrained, was a contributing factor to his death. but it has taken the death of a black man in america to wake us up to what happens here. the black people die here in custody. and the numbers keep rising and we failed to stop us. i don't believe actually the government have learned anything more than how to hide aboriginal death and cassi from the world. and that's what we're trying to expose here. we need to expose globally what's happening here in australia because we resonate with people like george floyd, we resonate with those families. we resonate with, you know, various tests in custody around the world that are going on same solar,

a levy with every stop you think about it through for the here. the slaver who sent free play masses apartheid mass as they became brain, grew kilo the blacks, about 70 years from around the whole town, the tulsa, oklahoma and rosewood, florida. they measured flash alive, me when i see black america and i see part of myself. when i was growing up, black america spoke to me when white astray did not. we are ready. we are friday. we are down friday. we are denied not only level, right, but even human run. totally only way we're going to get some of the pricing right away from our side so must have come together against the common enemy.

the black american told me to dream. i have a dream that one day this nation will rise up, live out the true meaning of its creed. we hold these truths to be self evident, that all men are created. the. those who say black lives matter is a movement we are importing from america. i know nothing of who we are, the ones who came out of the same black churches as jesse jackson and martin luther king. aus was the church of the forsaken and these men were our patron saints from black america. i learned how to

speak back to whiteness, the wind, which we could to trade on color or religion with this. there are other ways of connecting. ben, i tell you this when i left this country in 1048, i was just kind of one reason. one reason i where i, when i got the hong kong, i made it on the timber to end up in paris on the speech, paris. and i'm talking on the theory and nothing words could happen to me. they said it already happened to me hear you talk about making it right about yourself. you won't be able then to turn up all the antenna which you live. because once you turn your back on the society, you may dial, you may dot me

then flashes dire and stretched out roar, and you're not the guy and still you fit the description because there is only one guy who is always the guy fitting the description. ah, i think the white imagination has framed the conception of whiteness in a certain direction. and therefore, in order to keep itself segregated superior in its narrative, it had to classify blacks as, as animals. and we see that language being use by presidents like reagan being used by ordinary citizens, being used to talk about michelle obama as 1st lady. so you

know, and i think people have passively taken that in and then believed it as fast. you know, so when we have somebody like president trump saying you can tell these people anything and they'll believe it. he's not how quickly this wound steals our innocence. i didn't get to discover the world through my eyes. i was the one discovered i was the one captured in the wide gaze and learned at school the hard lesson of life. i lived in a world where white lives mattered. and i was not why me, why was new? and i was an old school yard towards me,

the laughing pointing the mocking the head turning these little things to stay with you. once our eyes are opened to the world around us, we can never see the world in the same way again in i was 15, but i learned another matter how close i got. i could never truly belong. one day i was asked in class to stand up and talk about myself to talk about my life. and i told them who i was. i told him where i was from. i told him about my family, about my parents. i told them about our history. as a walked out of the class, one of my friends turned to me and said, why do you have to always talk about that?

which i back into class after lunch and scrawled across the board. be kind to stan, need love to might seem like just a little thing. it might seem like something you can struggle of sitting here to die. why should that matter? why should that matter to me? but you can never let go. of those things. people know just way to hurt you. they know just how to tell you what you will place in the world is and what the price of belonging really is. just shut up. just go along. don't talk about it. oh, i is your media a reflection of reality the

in a world transformed what will make you feel safer? tyson lation community. are you going the right way or are you being that somewhere? direct? what is true? what is faith? in the world corrupted, you need to defend the join us in the depths or remain in the shallows ah, in the the whatever

the aboriginal people here are more every day. we're at war with the system with the police were at war with statistics. but you want to just move on from the ah, jane and again story in the black community, straight in lives,

black pool and in the side of the police. as a young boy chain and lost his mother and his father. he grew up on the streets and it seems to me like so many others got into trouble when to juvenile detention and ultimately to jo. straight in may call us statistics. we know those numbers. we have 3 percent of the population and the food is behind bars, keen and is not as statistic. he's real. his friends and his family are real and his pain is real. my come back to my community and all i see is pain. all i sees wanting memories where i used to play with my friends and my brothers,

that i've lost where i used to sleep. but now my brothers are in prison, serving shifting youth. and we never wanted to grow up to be drug addicts and criminals. we just wanted to be loved. we wanted our mom and dad to be home. we want to have food on the table and we want to be safe. and we spend the rest of our lives trying to pick the pieces up and understand why we never had such a beginning like everybody else. and where do we fit in and how do we pick ourselves up and move on from all of the page? i was 17 when he came off his bike and was in hold on a fence post. he died from his injuries me. judge family believed he was being pursued by police at the time of the coroner rejected. one of the hottest

i was 17 at the time and i was with him the night before. the incident happen, thomas is set fire to the streets of rates. it looked like a scene from los angeles. ah, to this day, the hickey family and the black community will not accept the coroner's finding that t j. death was an accident. ah,

they still believe police were pursuing. they still wanted inquiry reopened. he died in the very community that we used to play in as kids same street suite, the walk as children, and hope for a better future hope not to be poor when the girl was in chain and is haunted by the memory of his friend t. j. and he works every day to try to keep young black kids out of jail. i'm more scared, scared that it's going to happen to my boys. i'm scared that my children are going to grow up in the country that think says no racism, but they're more likely to end up in the criminal justice system. then there are other fellow friends in daycare. i see them being chased by police. i see them in

a still cry. i see them in an adult prison so and having to visit them because they're my children and them my blood. and that's my experience. i had police driving alongside of me on my way, walking to high school in year. right. so my understanding of surveillance were attached to race. my understandings of police brutality of prisons really negative terminology attached to the idea of race rather than race being about unity race being about collective communities, race being about love. my earliest understandings of race here were rather set up as violence due to racism. latoya rule never got to say good bye to her brother wayne fella morrison.

cctv 40. she captured his last day in adelaide police. so when he was facing assault charges i became unresponsive. in a prison van and died in hospital 3 days later. in september 2016. a corranio in question is ongoing. but like so many other deaths in custody. for latoya and her family, there are more questions than answers. what happened in our final moments during one's last breath? there are so many questions. why, in the 1st instance, did they have to detain wayne? what happened in the van? why wasn't there surveillance in the van? why is it that the offices actually refused initially? police entrance and investigated entrance to take their statements that were, i believe, not released until months and years later. you know,

there are so many unanswered questions about what really happened to wayne. oh, there was, there's representation in federal parliament for generations. we the 1st nations people had spoken truth to white power. 150 years ago. the every good? oh straight. and today he demands more than the white man's charity. runs the right to me still there are no tracy. ringback no voice, i, people are often out of sight and out of mind to most of the i places like wisdom strategies kimberly region have some of the highest youth suicide, right? anywhere in the world here. like so many other black communities, paperless,

stressed to breaking point violence, drug and alcohol addiction, chronic poverty. these are the sad realities of lives under the weight of our history. but powerlessness not hopelessness. and it is our people. indigenous people missed it. bob went astray, often looks away there really shoes and i have personal experiences of loss of families through suicide. and we learn to continue to believe in our cells in our strengths, our resilience, our determination for change. and we can change, and we can bring others along to assist us to work with us around creating the reforms within the systems and structures that need to

be informed by lived realities of people. but to also empower people to lead the change at the community level is a photo pass down in my family. rows of aboriginal girls take him to a home to be trained to be servants, to meet under a sign that red thing, white act, white be white. they lost their names and were given a number. there in the middle is a small girl. number 658. my great aunt eunice grant. imagine a few. when you were a child, a baby even. and the authorities came in and snatch you from your mother, or your father, or your mother, any father and your siblings. and you were removed and brought up totally

separate from, from your family. how would you feel about that? and let them say, what's not too good and be pretty bad her in this me, you've got to try and walk and now she's a little bit me. the sorry, this is our last, we're really word. you know, you're reading the read directory. well, you more than your mouth was really in one, you know, we're going to be that, you know, we're doing more than this. whereas your land is for edge really regularly and the up and do cool by rhetoric, validate read, you know, modeling by reading. i am over read to remain on the scene proudly for rhetoric.

these are my parents, my bobbing father, young and boy, them for staying in the house. and my goodness, my mother, betty, how important is it for us to speak our language important to you? if you, if you don't, if you don't have a language, you're nobody. if we could speak english, we won't meet my driver this week. we try to get a good language office and it was the 1st was definitely not the only which we didn't lose because my father wilbert. he spoke several different languages. my can be lose it for what did he say? remember, he was arrested for speech. let's see if we're in the park and playing and it was only been no one. and this may have tried this to, and i mean, come on and he said barney and barney anna, buddy ana come quick here. yeah. you know,

i mean, i can hear me, you know? yeah, i mean, we need to go, go, good to go. we should have company going out and this young quote off the top of the one might be to me thought even abuse. he was abused enough and certainly yes. so the police arrested him to the like was leaving. he's locked him up then every way that put that into jail jail and some of the others to what happened the time when these are these cousin and i got to drink this placement on the modem. by with the side car. he came across some hopping the bush drinking and he couldn't feature by the loan. the them out of are sorry, sorry to johnny east carson. and he had to come back for dad. sorry. and kept that

around a tray till he came back for him and kept him to the tree. and then he didn't come back. old i dad was there in the hate. any piddling cell phone was all vanish translucent and didn't come back to we had no food. no, no, nothing came back. i was and i was lied and said, oh i'm sorry, i forgot you. you know, sometime we go to these peers, but surely the night come, they come of the world and they come with them as the tree it. when this war is the, was the cause revolution was alive and do it all. we will keep our hopes alive. we will not run the hope will nothing on the people alive the me

ah ah. ready ready me watch cancelli class person. i knew the song with the culture blue book. truly. i don't want the because it's always more you need to consider usually so which is what gone. yeah. because really new bushel is the

longer that she's in the go to him. referring is not going to not a monumental charges look on top of it. the devastating plotting in germany and belgium, with at least 90 entire houses all swept away in a once in a generation deluge over a 1000, people are still missing in 15 minutes are flat, our office, our neighbors houses. everything was on there was, it was a very quick rec streets and new kid stores and south africa sees another night, a violent riot. we spoke to a woman who amid the cale through her child from a bonding film saying to a crowd, apply standard. just so shown to she always remind me of what i did.
