4:31 am
it's not, or we don't own anything. we don't own anything. there's a social contract that we all have, but if you feel or i feel, then the person who has the authority comes in and they fix the situation. but the partner who picks is it that the weights and it's not a contract. when you tell that finish doing something about you broke the contract for bar 100 year, now we play our game and bill your well with i'm concerned, it could burn to the ground and it still wouldn't be enough. and they are lucky that what black people are looking for the quality and not review of literature. but there wasn't really please
4:32 am
a thing about it. i guess we see a black man died under the knee of a white police officer. i don't get any go there. in that moment it became every black life they captured on video was every person enslaved. every person in china. every person who lived under the wit, every person linked from a tree, ordered to the back of the bus. every nameless, faceless person who was told they lives, did not matter. awe in death, 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 way. i see of those cries soon and they sound so from media. this is bought
4:33 am
history. sounds like to us. i blew my chart bree. oh, easy, really right now. thank you. ha, ha, ha ha i. * want you to watch it, you watch that video and i dare you not to be angry with you, watch that video of a police officer stomping the life out of the man with his knee on his neck, fox, 8 minutes and 46 seconds. and excruciating, and when people see that video, they don't to see george floyds light being snuffed out. you know, they see actually the centuries of brutality and racism in this country. america
4:34 am
has been here before the rice riots of the 19th sixty's on the streets of los angeles in the 1990. 0, in ferguson deserving mm. at in minneapolis today. oh, and the message is to sign up for black america, the land of the free as never though truly for it. ah, this deep well spring of anger of actually goes to a, a centrally unresolved question. in the united states, which is at the core of the foundation in this country, which has been founded on slavery and genocide, murray, why supremacy structure? we will even white supremacy on to learn that for the black, legal inferior ross on the bus, she arrested the santa barbara ville rick,
4:35 am
click on the rear wife in the fro supremacy law, the law of the land. and we've read over come white filling the frame block, filling inferior g. even the plan for your room even will be fair. lou, we've heard george floyd woods here in australian prisons. i meant they were david dun, guy junior. his last words in 2015 before he died in the hospital ward of sidney's long by prison. oh, the coroner found lack of oxygen while he was restrained, was a contributing factor to his dead. oh, but it has taken the death of a black man in america to wake us up to what happens here,
4:36 am
learn that 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 operational deaths in custody 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 testing hussey around the world that are going i'm same similar issue of lab results. you think about it through wars, the heels of slave, we're who sent free play masses or palletized masses. they became for angry kilo that the blacks in about 70 years run the whole town, tulsa, oklahoma, and rosewood, florida,
4:37 am
the massive black alive. mm. mm. when i see black america, i see part of myself. when i was growing up, black america spoke to me. when white australia did not, we all read, we are right. we are down from. we are denied not a little right what even you would run. the only way we're going to get some of them for a friend right. nation, far away from our for a fire from us is come together. okay, the common enemy and black america told me to dream. i would 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,
4:38 am
that all men are created with those who say black lives matter is a movement we are importing from america. no, nothing of who we are aware knew i 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 adorned him from black america. i learned how to speak back to whiteness, automatic. ah, who shall, why was he was such a trade on color or religion or distant, all other ways of connecting men. i tell you this when i left his country in 1948, i wasn't going to be one reason only one reason. when i went on the hong kong,
4:39 am
i met on the gym block to end up in paris on the streets of paris, freud online talking on the theory that nothing worse would happen to me there that had already happened to me here. you talk about making it as right about yourself. you had to be able then to turn of old montana with which you live. because once you turn your back on society, you may dot, you may die. oh, then flashes a siren as stretched out war. and you are not the guy and still you fit the description because there is only one guy who is always the guy fitting the description. i think the white imagination has framed the conception of whiteness in
4:40 am
a certain direction and therefore, in order to keep itself so segregated superior in its narrative, it had to classify blacks as, as animals and b. c. that language was being used 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 i'm why people have passively taken mat in and then believe did, as fact are, 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.
4:41 am
how quickly this world 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 hog listen of life. i lived in a world where wide lives mattered, and i was not wide ah, what was normal? and i wasn't known. the schoolyard towards the laughing, the pointing, the mocking the heads turning these the little things to stay with you in . once our eyes are open to the world around us, we can never see the world in the same way again. mm. i was 15,
4:42 am
but i learned another lesson. no matter how close i got. i could never truly belong . one day i was asked in class to stand up and talk about our self 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, about my parents. i told them about our history as i walked out of the class, one of my friends turned to me and said, why do you have to always talk about that? and we came back into class after lunch and scrawled across the board. be kind to stand, need love to might seem like just a little thing. it might seem like something you can shrug off sitting here to die . why should that matter? why should that matter to me?
4:43 am
but you can never let go of those things. people not just way to her cheer, they know just how to charity, what your 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. to what we've got to do is identify the threats that we have. it's crazy even foundation, let it be an arms race is on, often very dramatic development. only personally and getting to resist. i don't see how that strategy will be successful, very difficult. i'm time to sit down and talk when i was showing wrong,
4:44 am
when i just don't hold any world yet to see how does the because the advocate and engagement, it was the trail. when so many find themselves worlds apart, we choose to look for common ground. ah aboriginal pickle here out war every day. we're at war with the system. now. war with the police were at war with statistics. but you want us just to move on from the new jane and mundane storage. good danny black community in australia 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 in

4:46 am
loved. we wanted our mom and dad to be home. we wanted 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 a beginning like everybody else. and where do we fit in and how do we pick ourselves up and move on from all of m. b j. he was 17. when he came on his bike and it wasn't piled on a fence post. died from his injuries lou j. j family. believe he was being pursued by police at the time of you, the coroner rejected. nash, this is one of the hardest things our men of any 70,

4:49 am
and having gone to visit them because they're my children and they're my blood. and that's my experience. i had police driving alongside of me on my way, walking to high school in year. right. and so, my understandings of, of surveillance were attached to race my understandings of police brutality of prisons and really negative terminology attached to the idea of race, rather than race being about unity, rice being about collective communities, race being about love ah, my earliest understandings of race here were rather set up as violence due to racism. latoya lee never got to say good bye to her brother wayne fella morrison cctv 40. she captured his last day in an adelaide police cell where he was facing assault charges. he became
4:50 am
unresponsive in a prison van and died in hospital 3 days later in september 2016, a corranio in quest, his ongoing but like so many other deaths in custody for the toya and her family. there are more questions than answers and what happened in our final moments. and when's last breaths? they are semi on answer 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 insurance and investigator entrance to take their statements that were, i believe i'm not released until months and years later and, you know, they, there's so many unanswered questions about what really happened to wine back my life was representation in federal apologize for generations. we,

4:52 am
but powerlessness is not hopelessness. and it is our people. indigenous people who step um, when the strider often looks away, they're really shoes and i have personal experiences of a loss of families through suicide. and we learn to, to continue to believe in ourselves 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 is
