7:32 am
a black man. i'd on the knee of a white police officer. ah, you don't get any gobble. and there, in that moment it became every black life. they captured on video with 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 nameless, faceless person who was told they lives, did not matter. ah, 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 away. i see of those cries soon. and thy sounds so familiar with this is

7:36 am
the blank 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 at george floyd. we resonate with those families. we resonate with, you know, various deaths in custody around the world that are going. i'm same similar issue adobe with over the stop you think about it through wars, the years of slave we're we're set free play masses or palletized mass of labor camber angry kilo fairville. the blacks in about 70 years run the whole town, or tulsa, oklahoma, and rosewood, florida,

7:38 am
that all men are created. ah, those who say black lives matter is a movement we are importing from america. no, nothing of who we are in the room 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. to join her from black america. i learned how to speak back to whiteness, automatic ah, who so why was he was such a cradle in color or religion with this? don't all other ways of connecting men. i tell you this. when i left his country in 1948, i was just telling you one reason only one reason. well when i'm done the hong kong,

7:40 am
a certain direction. and therefore, in order to keep itself so segregated superior in its narrative, it had to classify blacks as, as the animals and the see that language 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 wide, people have passively taken that in and then believed it as fact how 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

7:43 am
but you can never let go. of those things people know 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. don't talk about it. ah . well the pandemic, no, no, board is under a piece and you various as a merge we don't have with the we don't to look back. see, the whole world needs to take action to be ready. people are judgment, common crisis with we can do better. we should be doing

i'm more scared, scared that it's going to happen to my boys. i'm scared that more children are gonna grow up in the country that think says no racism, but they're more likely to end up in the criminal justice system than their other fellow friends in daycare. i see them being chased by police. i see them in a so cry i see them in an adult prison. so 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,
7:50 am
rather than race being about unity rights 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. see she tv 40. she captured his last day in an adelaide police cell where he was facing assault charges. he became 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 latoya and her family, there are more questions than answers and what happened in our final moments. and

7:53 am
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 a photo pass down in my family. rows of aboriginal goes tightened to a home to be trained to be servants, to lead under a sign that read. think white act white, be white. they lost their names and were given a number. the in the middle is
