00:21We must continue to carry on that journey of emancipation.
00:27Yes, those of us who are here, we have a responsibility as well to continue to uplift our people, to
00:35continue to fight because the struggle is real.
00:38It continues to be real and let us not be fooled by the facade of what we perceive to be
00:44liberation.
01:01Our education of our children is still not what it needs to be so that they can find that for
01:07liberation.
01:08Our travel is not what it should be.
01:11We still have to go all over the place if we want to go home to the continent.
01:15We're still trying.
01:16There are efforts being made, but that struggle continues.
01:20Business is not designed in a way to facilitate and to assist us.
01:27So we have to continue to find our own pathways and continue to struggle in that regard.
01:32And every aspect of the festival attempts to address all of these different aspects of our liberation, of our full
01:43liberation.
01:55It's not a one-day thing.
01:56It does not happen within a day or two, a month or a year.
02:04It is over 400 years.
02:06Yes!
02:08It is over 500 years!
02:11It is over 400 years!
02:16Yes!
02:16It is over 91 years!
