the hearing is entitled the legacy of george floyd and an examination of financial services industries commitment to economic and racial justice. i now recognize myself for four minutes to give an opening statement. good afternoon. americans of all races, white, black, young and old from the mail room to the c suites were united and took to the streets to demand justice in an end to systemic racism that permeates many of our institutions and corporations. the voices of the many resonated in board rooms and "c" sweets as corporate leaders used the moment to empathize with the frustrations of protesters, their employees and even stakeholders. george floyd's murder was an indisputable example of systemic racism that shocked the conscious of the american public. thus today's hearing entitled the legacy of george floyd, an examination of financial services, industries commitments to economic and racial justice. the ceo of jpmorgan chase, jamie dimon, said in weeks following george floyd's death we are watching, listening and want every single one of you to know that we are fighting against

vicesit is correct that after te killing of george floyd and other incidents of racism. many financial institutions turned to the national urban league and others, and our network of affiliates, to address issues related to systemic discrimination and inequities. for some of these financial institutions this was a continuation of the support for the work that we've been doing. and based upon various -- previous long-standing relationships. for others, this was the beginning of a new partnership, and all the we were are thankful, madam chair, for the commitments and are hopeful that really impact will be made in felt in the communities that we serve, what we are mostly hopeful about is that these commitments will simpler the ending of corporate philanthropic redlining. the fact remains that there is still real work to be done. and the resources that have been pledged alone will not remedy centuries of inequities and disparities. research shows that despite significant economic progress over the past decade, african americans experienced far worst economic conditions than

and the fact that when george floyd was killed unjustly and said george floyd life matter, breonna taylor, a black woman killed unjustly by police, we went and said her life mattered. christian hall, reverend al, as you remember, a young asian-american teenage, when he was killed on a bridge by police in pennsylvania, we went and we said his life mattered. and so we have to go to bebe, arizona, when they kill hunter britain, this 17-year-old unarmed white teenager, and we have to say as loud as we said for george floyd, hunter britain's life matters. >> you know, jesse, one of the things that was striking to me there in bebe rural community, the funeral services were mostly white but they stood up and clapped as we spoke there. we all understood -- i said right out, i know some of you voted for trump, some for biden, but all of us want to see our kids come home safely and we want people paid to protect us to protect us, not shoot us unarmed. all your nephew had was a freeze can in his hand that you give to take care of cars, anti-freeze can in his hand. hunter was a young man with his who

or if there was no we've heard george floyd's words here in australian prisons. they were david don, guy junior's last words in 2015 before he died, 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 i don't believe actually the government have learned anything more than how to hide aboriginal death 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 tests in custody around the world that are going on same solar, a levy with every stop you think about it to enforce here the slavery was sent free play masses, or part time masses they became brain grew kilo fact, the black about 70 is fr

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 in ferguson, missouri, 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. this deep wellspring of anger, of actually goes to a 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 mag, reasons why supremacy censure we believe in white supremacy on to 90 for the black, legal inferior grows press on the bus, sharesa sand mother grabbed that rick color from the rear. why? from the front supremacy of the law, the land. and we've had to overcome quite phyllis and pre blood filling inferior g. even the plan figure out who the even was on the fire the we've heard george floyd's words here in australian prisons. they were da

so i will definitely say that george floyd is not the 1st right me. there is trade one more in. but what i will say is that when we understand george floyd and his that we also have to paint that within the context of what happened right. there was a panoramic that had a lot of people on their phones and that was the main way i be receiving every day to day basis. and so i think it created a shockwave effect where everyone was forced to see when i think back to 2014 and 15 in the context of ferguson uprising. so much of that work was necessarily focused on proving that there was a systemic problem. and not because folks who had experienced it didn't know there was a stomach problem, really because there were a lot of white people who refused to believe it. and a lot of policy makers who refused to act on that. and i think when george floyd video came out, there was also something about that video in particular at the number of officers who were there to the cold stair on derek job in faith. he really was indifferent to george ford's life. there was something about that incident

and i think when the george floyd video came out, there was also something about at video in particular, at the number of officers who were there. so the cold stair on derek. chopin's face, he really was indifferent to george for his life. there was something about that incident in particular and i think hit a different coin. there was now a consensus that there was a problem that it was systemic that it was everywhere. say something. so fam, i would say that we definitely did see a shift, but i would actually push back and saying that on a large scale, this was the conversation because in fact i feel like the election results told a completely different story. it showed the fact that there was a device in nature when it came to what happened with george? why? because truth be told, if the george floyd death was enough, then we should have seen a large, a landslide when for buy it. and at the very least, to denounce trump's administration. another thing that i would add is that 6 years ago with ferguson, we didn't have a president that was going on twitter talking about, you know, there

because troop called, if the george floyd death was enough. then we should have seen a large land slide when for bite. and at the very least, to denounce trump's administration. another thing that i would add is that 6 years ago with ferguson, we didn't have a president that was going on twitter talking about, you know, there's problems in the streets that are organizing pro tasks and demonstrations. and, you know, we need to send the national guard in 6 years ago. we weren't in the middle of a panoramic. and 6 years ago we didn't have a president who went on a debate telling boys to stand by and stand back. and so the reality boys are wasted from the secret. yes. so i think it's important for us to understand that this past summer was in a lot of ways, a boiling of incidence and boiling of trauma. my question to you sam is do you think data can help bridge that divide? and i've seen that bridge, the divide and i think data is a really important tool for dismantling the myths that white people have told themselves that make them comfortable ab

not coming back saying the george floyd justice act -- >> this is an interesting question you raised. one of the things about george floyd, you and i talked about it -- you and i have been talking about this for years. we talked about it in ferguson. one thing about george floyd is that people saw something happening that they heard about and didn't fully believe. once they saw it, they took to the street. the allies took to the street. is it because this is nebulous because it's not clear how this actually affects people? >> it's not. it's very clear. the problem is they simply see this as a black thing as opposed to an american thing. you have had republican clerks who have been on record as saying they have moved early voting locations off of college campuses to places further out to keep -- because they do not like a number of college students voting. those are white voters. it happened in wisconsin. not a lot of black folks. it's happened in north carolina and other states. i've been saying for years to young, white voters, voter suppression affects you. what they're doing in te
