“No justice, no peace”
I've been marching since I was very young.
And there's so many reasons that
I'm here today.
You know, for the people, for the justice.
And I also want the people to vote.
That's very important to me.
“Martin Luther, Martin Luther, Martin Luther.”
Time for us to come together as a people
and do the work together and do our part to make sure that we lend our voice
to what's happened in Palestine, what happens here
to our Black and brown and other marginalized communities in America.
When I say Black lives, you say matter
Black lives... matter!
Doctor King unfortunately
was assassinated at 39 years old, really at the height of his influence
in the Black community and for poor white folks as well.
And he didn't get the finish that, so its up to us to now
pick it up where he left off, and get it across the finish line.
I just turned 71 myself
and and last week,
Saturday, I had a mild heart attack. Yes.
And and every year.
Is it still so important to me that that I represent my family
and my friends and and the community that I live in....
Stand up! Fight back!
There's a lot of work to be done
as far as, you know, dealing with finding housing for homeless people.
There are too many of us Blacks being killed by police.
I work with seniors.
There are so many of them being priced out of their homes.
There's a lot of work to be done.
Show me what democracy looks like!
This is what democracy looks like!
