00:00And so, my brothers and sisters, we are out here in the midst of culture wars that are going on.
00:05Look at what's happening. We can't barbecue while black.
00:09We can't go to Starbucks while black, even if we are Starbuck.
00:14We can't even sleep at Yale University if we're a student in the common area if we are black.
00:22We can't sell loosies on the street if we're black.
00:25In other words, we can't even breathe and be black.
00:28The problem is that the hatred of blackness is so deeply inscribed in this culture
00:34that we ourselves have to stand up every day to remind this nation that we are here,
00:41we are going nowhere, we built this nation up,
00:44our slave labor afforded you the leisure to engage in all manner of democratic energy,
00:50and this country is ours.
00:52I say to these people, you can't afford to be like Donald Trump
00:59and hating on somebody because of their sexual orientation,
01:03because of their gender, because of their race and class.
01:07If we're going to be unified as black people, we need all hands on deck.
01:11All black lives matter.
01:14All black lives matter.
01:16All black lives matter.
