00:01Here's one of the greatest artists of the world, Harry Balfotti!
00:14One day, Paul Robeson came to see me and simply said,
00:18Get them to sing your song and they'll want to know who you are.
00:30Even in that grainy black and white early TV, his personality came out.
00:34When Harry Balfotti went on the show with Petula Clark, they touched.
00:38People were like, oh my God!
00:43Whatever you're capable of doing as artists, to help propagandize the Civil Rights Revolution.
00:51Out of that came the true artistry of Harry Balfotti.
01:00There's a lot of people out here who are really pissed off.
01:03Harry gave us a piece of his fire. It gave us all strength.
01:07We are angry, we're upset.
01:08Harry motivated Martin because he was a man who didn't have to get involved and who did.
01:14We look around for some comfort and we don't find any.
01:19I remember once when you said, from the time I get up, the time I go to sleep,
01:24I seek out the injustices done to humankind.
01:27What do we want?
01:28Me!
01:28What do you want?
01:31He was always like that.
01:33He was always, let's do something.
01:35Harry did this over and over and over and over again.
01:40He took all our struggles and made them his own.
01:46We can't be shut up no more.
01:49Talk about movement building.
01:51We gotta stand up.
01:52Power!
01:52We're gonna organize even harder.
01:54We're gonna knock on some more doors, talk to some more policy makers.
02:02I try to envision playing out the rest of my life almost exclusively devoted to reflection.
02:08But, uh, is there too much in the world to be done?
02:11We can't be seen in the world to be seen in the world to be seen in the world to
02:14be seen in the world to be seen in the world to be seen in the world to be seen
02:14in the world to be seen in the world to be seen in the world to be seen in the
02:16world to be seen in the world to be seen in the world to be seen in the world to
02:19be seen in the world.
02:21Grazie a tutti.
