1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,460
“No justice, no peace”

2
00:00:02,460 --> 00:00:05,588
I've been marching
since I was very young.

3
00:00:05,588 --> 00:00:09,592
And there's so many reasons that

4
00:00:09,676 --> 00:00:11,344
I'm here today.

5
00:00:11,344 --> 00:00:14,472
You know,
for the people, for the justice.

6
00:00:14,472 --> 00:00:16,558
And I also want the people to vote.

7
00:00:16,558 --> 00:00:18,184
That's very important to me.

8
00:00:18,184 --> 00:00:21,688
“Martin Luther, Martin Luther, Martin Luther.”

9
00:00:21,771 --> 00:00:24,357
Time for us to come together as a people

10
00:00:24,357 --> 00:00:29,362
and do the work together and do our part
to make sure that we lend our voice

11
00:00:29,446 --> 00:00:32,449
to what's happened in Palestine,
what happens here

12
00:00:32,532 --> 00:00:36,703
to our Black and brown and other
marginalized communities in America.

13
00:00:36,786 --> 00:00:39,581
When I say Black lives, you say matter

14
00:00:39,581 --> 00:00:45,336
Black lives... matter!

15
00:00:45,336 --> 00:00:46,171
Doctor King unfortunately

16
00:00:46,171 --> 00:00:50,341
was assassinated at 39 years old,
really at the height of his influence

17
00:00:50,550 --> 00:00:53,553
in the Black community
and for poor white folks as well.

18
00:00:53,720 --> 00:00:56,723
And he didn't get the finish that,
so its up to us to now

19
00:00:56,723 --> 00:01:00,185
pick it up where he left off,
and get it across the finish line.

20
00:01:05,899 --> 00:01:08,735
I just turned 71 myself

21
00:01:08,735 --> 00:01:11,613
and and last week,

22
00:01:11,613 --> 00:01:15,450
Saturday, I had a mild heart attack. Yes.

23
00:01:15,450 --> 00:01:17,869
And and every year.

24
00:01:17,869 --> 00:01:22,999
Is it still so important to me
that that I represent my family

25
00:01:23,083 --> 00:01:26,211
and my friends
and and the community that I live in....

26
00:01:26,211 --> 00:01:27,921
Stand up!  Fight back!

27
00:01:28,630 --> 00:01:30,423
There's a lot of work to be done

28
00:01:30,423 --> 00:01:34,594
as far as, you know, dealing
with finding housing for homeless people.

29
00:01:34,677 --> 00:01:38,890
There are too many of us Blacks
being killed by police.

30
00:01:39,099 --> 00:01:41,184
I work with seniors.

31
00:01:41,184 --> 00:01:44,521
There are so many of them
being priced out of their homes.

32
00:01:44,604 --> 00:01:46,272
There's a lot of work to be done.

33
00:01:46,272 --> 00:01:48,316
Show me what democracy looks like!  

34
00:01:48,316 --> 00:01:51,194
This is what democracy looks like!
