00:01Sorry, what is this?
00:03Today's news. Oh, I do need to catch up. That's correct?
00:06The world is on fire.
00:10Great. Wow.
00:11You know, if we were to all put our voices together,
00:14do you realize the difference we would make?
00:17If we were to all stand up united as one,
00:21our impact, it would be huge.
00:26Believe me. Huge.
00:28And that's not fake news.
00:31So let's leave here tonight remembering that
00:34we must show these Nazi white supremacist jerks
00:41in Charlottesville and all over the country
00:44that as a nation with liberty as our slogan,
00:49we have zero tolerance for their violence,
00:52their hatred, and their discrimination.
00:54My name is Robert Lee IV.
00:57I'm a descendant of Robert E. Lee,
01:00the Civil War general whose statue was at the center
01:03of violence in Charlottesville.
01:06We have made my ancestor an idol of white supremacy,
01:10racism, and hate.
01:12As a pastor, it is my moral duty to speak out against racism,
01:17America's original sin.
01:29We're here with love, but we're also here to make a statement
01:32and have those discussions about being at the round table
01:35with everybody else and let people know that, you know,
01:38we love and support the movement,
01:40and we will continue spreading the word
01:42about indigenous equal rights.
01:44Only 15 days ago, my daughter Heather was killed
01:48as she protested racism.
01:51I miss her, but I know she's here tonight.
01:53Today, I'm announcing the launch of the Heather Heyer Foundation.
