1:32 pm
definitely think about you talking about how to get, we played your game at your well concerning bernard, 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, please. a black man died under the need of a white police officer. yeah, you don't get any gama can be in that moment. they became every black life. they captured on video was every post and slaved. every person in
1:33 pm
chains. every person who lived under the wit, every person linked from a tree, ordered to the back of the bus every day unless faceless person was told their lives did not matter. the days 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 of those cries and they sound so from me again, this is born history. sounds like to us with bery you really know why they're on the.
1:34 pm
* camera, why don't you watch that video and i dare you not to be angry. the you watch a video of a police officer thumping the life of a man with his knee on his neck for 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 19th sixty's on the streets of los angeles. in the 1990 in ferguson, missouri, the added minneapolis today.
1:35 pm
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 a centrally unresolved question in the united states, which is at the core of the foundation of the country, which has been founded on slavery in jennifer y supremacy tension. we believe in white supremacy on tonight for the black legal inferior rose problem on the bus. she sounded but grabbed that rick color from the rear. why, from the front supremacy law of the law of the land we've had overcome quite for supreme blood, for the inferior judy, even the plan for yahoo! the even one on the fire.
1:36 pm
we've heard george floyd's words straight in prisons. they were david don, guy juniors, 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 is 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 that 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 in custody from the world. and
1:37 pm
that's what we're trying to expose here when they do expose globally. what's happening here in australia because we resonate with people like george floyd, we resonate with those families. we resonate with various testing hussy around the world that are going on same solar issue with every stop you. think about it too. hard to hear. the slaver was set free. play masses pod try and mass as they became for angry kilo 5000 blast and about 70 years from the whole town, the tulsa, oklahoma, and rosewood, florida, the magistrate flash alive me. when i see black america, i see part of myself. when i was growing up, black america spoke to me. when white a straight yet did not. we our breath,
1:38 pm
we are fighting. we are down driving. 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 it come together against the common enemy. the black america told me to dream. i have a dream that one day, this nation will rise up and 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.
1:39 pm
aus was the church of the forsaken and these men were our patron saints. to join him from black america. i learned how to speak back to whiteness. matters the way we could to trade on color or religion or this. there are other ways of connecting ben. i tell you that when i left this country in 1048, i was one reason only one reason where i, when i'm, i don't know hong kong i matters on the timber to end up in paris on the speech. paris. that's right. i was talking on the theory and nothing words could happen to me. they said it already happened to me hear you talk about making it as write it by yourself. you won't be able then to turn up all the antenna. but when you live, because once you turn your back on the society, you may dial,
1:40 pm
you may dot ah, then flashes aside and stretched out war. and you're not the guy and still you fit the description. because there is only one guy who is always a guy fitting the description. ah, i think the white imagination has framed that 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
1:41 pm
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 believe 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 wrong. 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 white gaze and learned at school the hog listen of life. i lived in
1:42 pm
a world where white lives mattered. and i was not watching me why and i was an old school yard towards me, the laughing pointing the mocking the heads 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 question. no 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 them where i was from. i told them about my family,
1:43 pm
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 at which i back into class after lunch and scrawled across the board. be kind to stan, need love to smile, 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 are just way to hurt you. they know just how to tell you what your place in the world is and what the price of belonging really is. just shut up. just go along.
1:44 pm
don't talk about it. oh, the cubans experience demonstrations for and against the hub on a government. many in the us allowed we say something must be done. what that something is, is not entirely clear. the back is the u. s. has done many things against cuba for decades, namely the long standing trade embargo, maybe washington should stop trying to help the cuban people for a change that survival gotcha. which day is going to store a federal reserve so there you go. oh, heck, no. refrigeration came where we get the rest the 7 years. so i tried to report
1:45 pm
me the news the aboriginal people here out more every day were at war with the system with the police were at war with statistics. but you want to just move on from ah, jane and again. story. black community, you know, straight lives, black pool and in the side of the police. as a young boy, kane and lost his mother and his father. he grew up on the streets in a seems to me. like so many others got into trouble, went to juvenile detention, and ultimately to j. prostrate in may call us statistics.
1:46 pm
we know those numbers. we have 3 percent of the population and the food is behind bars. keenan is not as statistic. he is real and his friends and his family are real and his pain is real. i come back to my community and all i see is pain. all i sees full flaunting memories where i used to play with my friends and my brothers, that i've lost, where i used to sleep with now my brothers are in prison, serving shifting youth. but 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 it to be safe. and we spend the rest of our lives trying to pick the pieces up and understand why we never had such
1:47 pm
a beginning like everybody else. and where do we fit in and how do we pick our selves up and move on from all of to t j. he was 17. when he came off his bike and was impaled on a fence post. died from his injuries. mm. the judge family believed he was being pursued by police at the time of the coroner rejected. man, one of the hardest. i was 17 at the time and i was with him the night before. the incident happened. the
1:48 pm
thomas, he can do is set fire to the streets of rates and it looked like a scene from los angeles. ah, to this day that he family and the black community will not accept the car and is finding that t j. death was an accident. ah, they still believe police were pursuing him. they still wanted inquiry reopened. he died in the same communities that we the plane of kid, same straits, we used to walk as children, and hope for a better future. hope not to be poor web grow up in
1:49 pm
chain and is haunted by the memory of his friend t j. and he works every day to try to keep young black 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 case by police. i see them in a still cry. i see them in an i don't prison cell. and having don't want to visit them because they're my children and they're my blood. and that's like spirit. and i had police driving along side of me on my way, walking to high school in year. right?
1:50 pm
so my understandings of, 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 understanding of race. yeah, we're rather set up as violence due to racism. latoya rule never got to say good bye to her brother wayne fell a morrison cctv 40 and she captured his last day in adelaide, police hill where he was facing assault charges. i became unresponsive in a prison van, then died in hospital 3 days later, in september 2016. a corranio in quest is ongoing. but like so many
1:51 pm
other deaths in custody for latoya and her family, there are more questions than answers. so what happened in those final moments? one's last breath. there are so many questions. why? in the 1st instance, did they have to detain wine? what happened in the van? why wasn't there surveillance in the van? why is it that the officers 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's so many questions about what really happened to wayne oh, there was representation in federal parliament for generations. we the 1st nations people had spoken truth to white power. 150 years ago. they every oh no stray. and today he demands more than the white man's charity to run

1:53 pm
they're really shoes and i have personal experiences of loss of families through suicide. and we learn to, to continue to believe in our selves in our strength, 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 there's a photo pass down in my family. rows of aboriginal girls taken to a home to be trained to be servants, to meet under a sign that read, think white act white, be white. they lost their names and were given
