treating them like 2nd class citizens. the british were showing signs of disrespect even to those who cooperated with them. the fact of ignoring the religious beliefs of the hindus led to the mutiny of the sea boys, mercenary soldiers serving under the british crown. 3000000000 began on the 10th of may 1857 in the garrison town of may river, north of india. in the form of a mutiny. the rebels quickly took over daily. the heroic resistance of the indian people lasted for one and a half years. however, the forces were not equal to the colonial authorities dealt with the rebels cruelly, the enslaves, the boys were tied to the mouth of the cannon and were shot right through their bodies for the amusement of the. this type of execution was called the devil's when the obliteration of the mutiny resulted in the 800000 inhabitants of india. however, the british empire never broke the free spirit of the indians and their will for

we were shut out economically. who is still shut out economically? the institutional racism that we have around economic steel persist, the underlying issues m j disparities with education, with employment, with health care, with transportation, with housing. oh, let's look at drugs and let's look again, let us look about the outcome. those are nice input. the inputs are the disparities that lead to that then america, money, speech, money makes policy. money decides who makes money off of drugs and who's communities are devastated. it is systemic. are we really saying to ourselves in this got that money is more

important than any other thing and how to get it and who you get it from an injustice. all that other stuff is jeff. this is to missouri from henry. yes. if that's all you leave of me to hell, i will make it work. when i was killed in a hoax, white books. you know, while i am your slave 8 what she had left it damn sure didn't leave no pork roast for me and no no, no, no baby back ribs. i got a snap, a ears, a tail. good cheers and mama nail made it to the best they could because that was worth it. if you leave room

a phone call and 10 minutes later there was 3 cars in the alley. gang members sitting on the hood of the car as they were vanishing guns. and they told me says i'm going to school today and he's coming with us. i took him, i felt so helpless like what, how do i fight this? calling the police. they didn't care. i said it was his choice now that's when it took off and that's when it got so violent. lot of kids went around. wow. i lost about like 30 brands at this time. what we were living in and know how many lies bagged and how bad it would end up being just got worse. and then finally one day i was at work in my house at the time. tell me you need to get home cuz police are going to your house for search warrants. and when i got home, they said, your son cross the line this time and we got him for murder. and that's why he was
