Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:47,821 --> 00:00:50,291
The whole scenery's finna change.
2
00:00:51,291 --> 00:00:52,924
Wait, so where we at right now?
3
00:00:52,926 --> 00:00:55,227
- We're going to the Northside.
- Northside...
4
00:00:55,229 --> 00:00:56,929
So, you finna go into, um...
5
00:00:56,931 --> 00:00:59,231
We finna pass into the three poorest,
6
00:00:59,233 --> 00:01:01,866
three out of the five poorest zip codes
7
00:01:01,868 --> 00:01:02,968
in the state of Missouri.
8
00:01:02,970 --> 00:01:04,439
And they all touch each other.
9
00:01:04,939 --> 00:01:06,440
Ain't that magic.
10
00:01:06,606 --> 00:01:09,440
♪ Do you believe in magic? ♪
11
00:01:09,442 --> 00:01:12,511
Two of the worst high
school, middle school,
12
00:01:12,513 --> 00:01:16,681
and elementary schools all
come out of these zip codes.
13
00:01:16,683 --> 00:01:19,620
We are straight up raising
children that cannot read.
14
00:01:21,287 --> 00:01:23,690
You know, like that's really fucked up.
15
00:01:25,558 --> 00:01:28,695
Then you be like damn, who gonna help
the kids at home with the homework?
16
00:01:29,529 --> 00:01:32,166
Parents can't read the
shit, you can't read it.
17
00:01:33,633 --> 00:01:36,436
That shit is directly
rooted back to slavery.
18
00:01:37,937 --> 00:01:40,475
Like you can't read, you a slave.
19
00:01:41,841 --> 00:01:43,844
You know, and the cycle continues.
20
00:01:45,011 --> 00:01:48,683
I don't think people... I love
to tell people from out of town,
21
00:01:50,317 --> 00:01:53,719
St. Louis is, I don't
know what year it is...
22
00:01:53,721 --> 00:01:54,987
It's not 2014.
23
00:01:54,989 --> 00:01:56,690
... but it's not 2014.
24
00:02:19,480 --> 00:02:23,348
Twenty-one, put me on at Canfield
with two and send me another car.
25
00:02:23,350 --> 00:02:26,885
Are there any available Ferguson
units who can respond to
26
00:02:26,887 --> 00:02:29,887
Canfield and Copper Creek, advise?
27
00:02:29,889 --> 00:02:32,493
Twenty-five out...
going down Canfield.
28
00:02:33,896 --> 00:02:37,331
Get us several more units over
here there's going to be a problem.
29
00:02:52,412 --> 00:02:55,416
Ferguson police just killed a
man in front of my apartment.
30
00:02:56,983 --> 00:02:58,385
He was unarmed.
31
00:02:59,619 --> 00:03:02,854
He had his arms in the
air, and they shot him
32
00:03:02,856 --> 00:03:04,659
ten times, at least.
33
00:03:06,025 --> 00:03:09,861
Right before Mike got shot, I
was sitting inside the house,
34
00:03:09,863 --> 00:03:11,796
uh, me, my lady, and my kids.
35
00:03:11,798 --> 00:03:14,866
I was on the bus just coming from church.
36
00:03:14,868 --> 00:03:17,535
It was a regular Saturday for
me. I was actually at home.
37
00:03:17,537 --> 00:03:18,937
August 9th, I was working.
38
00:03:18,939 --> 00:03:21,376
They got machine guns out.
39
00:03:22,643 --> 00:03:24,544
I see that big boy right there.
40
00:03:27,413 --> 00:03:29,014
I was running errands.
41
00:03:29,016 --> 00:03:30,584
And I think I was kayaking.
42
00:03:30,750 --> 00:03:33,417
I used to work at a furniture store.
43
00:03:33,419 --> 00:03:36,053
On August 9th, I was
probably wearing this shirt.
44
00:03:36,055 --> 00:03:37,823
They aren't telling me anything.
45
00:03:37,825 --> 00:03:39,658
They haven't told me anything.
46
00:03:39,660 --> 00:03:41,892
They wouldn't even let me identify my son.
47
00:03:41,894 --> 00:03:44,962
The only way I knew it was my
son was from people out here
48
00:03:44,964 --> 00:03:46,331
showing my his picture on they phones.
49
00:03:46,333 --> 00:03:49,401
That's how I learned about him.
I was able to look on their phone
50
00:03:49,403 --> 00:03:50,836
and say, yeah, that's my son.
51
00:03:50,838 --> 00:03:52,470
I'm so sorry.
52
00:03:52,472 --> 00:03:54,973
Laying in the street for hours.
53
00:03:54,975 --> 00:03:55,974
Hours.
54
00:03:59,078 --> 00:04:01,847
Settle down? That motherfucker
shot my baby eight times.
55
00:04:01,849 --> 00:04:03,015
Settle down?
56
00:04:03,017 --> 00:04:05,117
They left him out there
for four and a half hours.
57
00:04:05,119 --> 00:04:07,552
I automatically started
thinking of a lynching.
58
00:04:07,554 --> 00:04:10,722
In all honesty, I was scared
and I didn't want to go outside.
59
00:04:10,724 --> 00:04:11,726
This shit crazy.
60
00:04:14,627 --> 00:04:15,929
This shit crazy.
61
00:04:17,163 --> 00:04:18,964
This shit crazy.
62
00:05:12,652 --> 00:05:15,989
The body was covered up
right there in the street.
63
00:05:19,793 --> 00:05:21,793
That camera that's
right up there right now,
64
00:05:21,795 --> 00:05:24,762
that wasn't right there,
they just put that one up
65
00:05:24,764 --> 00:05:28,200
but there was a camera on
the side of this building
66
00:05:28,202 --> 00:05:30,135
and they took that camera down.
67
00:05:30,137 --> 00:05:32,938
That's what I'm saying like,
there was a camera out here
68
00:05:32,940 --> 00:05:36,674
that saw that whole thing
and they took that shit down.
69
00:05:36,676 --> 00:05:40,678
When they actually came out
here to start touching the body,
70
00:05:40,680 --> 00:05:44,815
man, they had these folks with big
white sheets blocking the whole...
71
00:05:44,817 --> 00:05:47,017
nobody couldn't see nothing.
72
00:05:47,019 --> 00:05:47,986
Nobody couldn't see nothing.
73
00:05:47,988 --> 00:05:50,688
They blocked everybody
view from being seen,
74
00:05:50,690 --> 00:05:52,025
from seeing anything.
75
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:55,560
No answers, we got no answers,
76
00:05:55,562 --> 00:05:58,729
we all was treated like
criminals so we all upset.
77
00:05:58,731 --> 00:06:00,731
Ain't nobody was going nowhere.
78
00:06:00,733 --> 00:06:06,938
So that night, you know, you
could see the fear, you know,
79
00:06:06,940 --> 00:06:08,606
from the people leave them.
80
00:06:10,844 --> 00:06:12,243
Put your hands up.
81
00:06:12,245 --> 00:06:13,748
Put your hands up. Put your hands up.
82
00:06:13,913 --> 00:06:15,613
Put your hands up. Put your hands up.
83
00:06:15,615 --> 00:06:18,215
Put your hands up. Put your hands up.
84
00:06:20,753 --> 00:06:23,087
Put your hands up. Put your hands up.
85
00:06:31,731 --> 00:06:34,765
That fear, man, it went
right into the police.
86
00:06:34,767 --> 00:06:37,969
It was like everybody was
yelling at the same time.
87
00:06:37,971 --> 00:06:42,606
That wasn't no chant, man. That was just
like, that was like, that was beautiful, man.
88
00:06:42,608 --> 00:06:46,577
When I seen that though, I was
like, man, we got to make sure
89
00:06:46,579 --> 00:06:50,651
like, we keep that, you know, energy alive.
90
00:06:53,887 --> 00:06:56,787
Come on son. Come on,
sit down and get a break.
91
00:06:56,789 --> 00:06:58,757
- You want to draw...
- Come on, sit down.
92
00:06:58,759 --> 00:07:00,325
You want to draw something?
93
00:07:00,327 --> 00:07:02,096
Ah, Byron, stop biting the table.
94
00:07:05,164 --> 00:07:07,798
This going to be my fighter
right here. Come here.
95
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:09,668
Come on. Come on.
96
00:07:09,670 --> 00:07:10,638
Fight.
97
00:07:12,606 --> 00:07:15,009
You don't want to fight
me? Come on, let's fight.
98
00:07:19,279 --> 00:07:20,281
Hit me.
99
00:07:21,882 --> 00:07:24,050
Get him, Byron, get him.
100
00:07:24,784 --> 00:07:26,987
He going to be my little
fighter though. For sure.
101
00:07:27,620 --> 00:07:30,190
- Give me five.
- Pow. Bam, bam, bam.
102
00:07:31,058 --> 00:07:32,058
Bam!
103
00:07:33,260 --> 00:07:36,296
We gon' let them know that we are one.
104
00:07:37,029 --> 00:07:39,130
Enough is enough.
105
00:07:39,132 --> 00:07:41,933
We are one.
106
00:07:41,935 --> 00:07:44,269
We are one.
107
00:07:44,271 --> 00:07:48,205
We are one! We are one!
108
00:07:48,207 --> 00:07:50,577
Say it louder.
- We are one.
109
00:07:50,743 --> 00:07:52,344
Say it louder.
- We are one.
110
00:07:52,346 --> 00:07:54,712
Say it louder.
- We are one.
111
00:07:54,714 --> 00:07:56,815
Say it louder.
- We are one.
112
00:07:56,817 --> 00:07:58,950
Say it louder.
- We are one.
113
00:07:58,952 --> 00:08:00,919
Say it louder.
- We are one.
114
00:08:00,921 --> 00:08:03,387
Say it louder.
- We are one.
115
00:08:03,389 --> 00:08:05,222
I mean, we lost another good brother.
116
00:08:05,224 --> 00:08:06,957
I heard he was starting school on Monday,
117
00:08:06,959 --> 00:08:09,226
I mean, going to college.
This ain't right, man.
118
00:08:09,228 --> 00:08:12,664
We just, we gotta show, we gotta
show our love out here. We got to.
119
00:08:12,666 --> 00:08:13,733
We are one.
120
00:08:13,735 --> 00:08:17,204
We want justice for Mike Mike, Big
Mike, Michael Brown. Y'all hear me?
121
00:08:17,971 --> 00:08:22,306
He got stopped walking,
the same way I got stopped.
122
00:08:22,308 --> 00:08:23,974
From the time I was in junior high.
123
00:08:23,976 --> 00:08:26,378
That was my first experience.
I was 13 years old.
124
00:08:28,382 --> 00:08:31,248
And that dude was walking
down the street doing nothing.
125
00:08:31,250 --> 00:08:33,217
They say he tried to yank away from him.
126
00:08:33,219 --> 00:08:34,888
They shot him one time,
that's a warning shot.
127
00:08:35,055 --> 00:08:36,755
Other than that, no need to shoot no more.
128
00:08:36,757 --> 00:08:39,723
He put his hands up 'cause he
felt he had no other chance.
129
00:08:39,725 --> 00:08:41,061
He was gonna get shot if he kept running.
130
00:08:41,063 --> 00:08:43,828
I want everybody to put their hands
up. This the way we'll be all day long.
131
00:08:43,830 --> 00:08:46,398
- Put your hands all the way up.
- Put your hands up!
132
00:08:46,400 --> 00:08:49,134
I want your hands all the way up
133
00:08:49,136 --> 00:08:51,403
because this how he was when he got shot.
134
00:08:51,405 --> 00:08:53,404
- Yeah!
- When he got assassinated.
135
00:08:53,406 --> 00:08:55,273
When he got executed.
136
00:08:55,275 --> 00:08:58,009
This how he was. So, we
gotta do it like this.
137
00:08:58,011 --> 00:08:59,877
Let's keep it real. Okay?
138
00:08:59,879 --> 00:09:03,014
The police department wanna come
out here and cover up something
139
00:09:03,016 --> 00:09:05,350
that one of their law
enforcements did, man.
140
00:09:05,352 --> 00:09:08,886
Then you come out here and you
wanna sic the dogs on us, you know.
141
00:09:08,888 --> 00:09:11,021
It's time for us to unite, man.
142
00:09:11,023 --> 00:09:13,424
Say it loud! I'm black and I'm proud.
143
00:09:13,426 --> 00:09:15,025
- Say it loud!
- I'm black and I'm proud.
144
00:09:15,027 --> 00:09:17,395
- Say it loud!
- I'm black and I'm proud.
145
00:09:17,397 --> 00:09:19,430
- Say it loud!
- I'm black and I'm proud.
146
00:09:19,432 --> 00:09:21,732
- Say it loud!
- I'm black and I'm proud.
147
00:09:21,734 --> 00:09:23,768
- Say it loud!
- I'm black and I'm proud.
148
00:09:23,770 --> 00:09:26,037
- Say it loud!
- I'm black and I'm proud.
149
00:09:26,039 --> 00:09:27,905
- Say it loud!
- I'm black and I'm proud.
150
00:09:27,907 --> 00:09:29,874
- Say it loud!
- I'm black and I'm proud.
151
00:09:29,876 --> 00:09:31,879
- Say it loud!
- I'm black and I'm proud.
152
00:09:33,146 --> 00:09:34,746
- No justice.
- No peace.
153
00:09:34,748 --> 00:09:36,313
- No justice.
- No peace.
154
00:09:36,315 --> 00:09:38,051
- No justice.
- No peace.
155
00:09:39,051 --> 00:09:41,952
Protest. They got the police out here.
156
00:09:41,954 --> 00:09:43,822
We tax paying citizens,
they bring out fucking K-9s.
157
00:09:43,824 --> 00:09:46,057
- Y'all supposed to protect and serve, not kill.
- No fear.
158
00:09:46,059 --> 00:09:47,958
Keep going. No fear.
159
00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:49,930
Keep going. Hands up brother. Hands up.
160
00:09:51,031 --> 00:09:52,797
We want answers.
161
00:09:52,799 --> 00:09:56,201
We want answers. We want answers.
162
00:09:56,203 --> 00:09:58,937
You know, we not just here
just to be ranting and raving.
163
00:09:58,939 --> 00:10:00,337
We want to talk about this issue.
164
00:10:00,339 --> 00:10:02,676
Remember, y'all stood for this.
165
00:10:03,343 --> 00:10:06,343
You, you, you, you. Y'all stood for this.
166
00:10:06,345 --> 00:10:10,314
I don't want y'all killing my child
because she walked out the door,
167
00:10:10,316 --> 00:10:12,986
y'all having a bad day, "Move
out the way, motherfucker."
168
00:10:13,152 --> 00:10:17,454
The constant denial of our humanity
by not even looking us in the eye.
169
00:10:17,456 --> 00:10:19,491
You killed a boy, you
have to answer for that.
170
00:10:19,493 --> 00:10:21,826
You don't just get to
shut yourself in an office.
171
00:10:21,828 --> 00:10:25,496
Put your hands up. Put your
hands up. Put your hands up!
172
00:10:25,498 --> 00:10:26,831
Don't shoot.
173
00:10:26,833 --> 00:10:27,735
Don't shoot.
174
00:10:27,737 --> 00:10:30,934
The chants kept people
energized. It kept them going.
175
00:10:30,936 --> 00:10:33,471
It actually kept them feeling like
there was actually a direction.
176
00:10:33,473 --> 00:10:34,706
Here we go.
177
00:10:34,708 --> 00:10:36,711
- No justice, no peace.
- Say what?
178
00:10:37,176 --> 00:10:38,976
- No justice, no peace.
- Say what?
179
00:10:38,978 --> 00:10:40,444
No justice, no peace.
180
00:10:40,446 --> 00:10:42,514
We are marching on West Florrisant
181
00:10:42,516 --> 00:10:46,550
towards the police barricade in Ferguson.
182
00:10:48,954 --> 00:10:51,025
Police fired a warning shot.
183
00:10:51,190 --> 00:10:52,392
A flare up.
184
00:10:53,325 --> 00:10:55,526
Needlessly provoking the crowd.
185
00:10:55,528 --> 00:10:57,529
It got those young brothers
and sisters riled up.
186
00:10:57,531 --> 00:10:59,864
They weren't riled up before
then. They was out there,
187
00:10:59,866 --> 00:11:02,467
they was mad, they was upset
but they weren't doing anything.
188
00:11:02,469 --> 00:11:03,503
It just set them off.
189
00:11:05,071 --> 00:11:08,405
Don't shoot. Don't shoot.
Don't shoot. Don't shoot.
190
00:11:08,407 --> 00:11:11,878
There was no fear in the
heart of people anymore.
191
00:11:13,246 --> 00:11:15,513
This is the military police.
192
00:11:15,515 --> 00:11:17,351
This is not the police from our hood.
193
00:11:23,223 --> 00:11:25,923
We're trying to mourn and you
came here with 300 cop cars,
194
00:11:25,925 --> 00:11:27,891
in riot gear and K-9 units.
195
00:11:27,893 --> 00:11:29,763
This is the same thing that
pretty much got us here.
196
00:11:30,397 --> 00:11:31,395
We here.
197
00:11:31,397 --> 00:11:33,901
We here. They ready to
drop the teargas, man.
198
00:11:35,435 --> 00:11:37,034
We our keepers.
199
00:11:37,036 --> 00:11:39,537
We got to be our own keepers.
200
00:11:39,539 --> 00:11:41,041
We got to love one another.
201
00:11:43,542 --> 00:11:44,911
Murderers!
202
00:11:45,545 --> 00:11:47,180
Murderers!
203
00:11:47,881 --> 00:11:49,150
Murderers!
204
00:12:20,046 --> 00:12:21,581
They down there...
205
00:12:22,916 --> 00:12:24,450
Goddamn, shit.
206
00:12:25,084 --> 00:12:26,519
And that's how you know it's time to go.
207
00:12:26,887 --> 00:12:28,589
People are doing 90. Shit.
208
00:12:29,421 --> 00:12:32,325
L.A. 1992, this is so sad, man.
209
00:12:33,359 --> 00:12:35,195
This is so fucking sad.
210
00:12:38,098 --> 00:12:40,334
We're walking up on the barricade now.
211
00:12:41,368 --> 00:12:45,236
I don't even think I can count the
number of police vehicles out here.
212
00:12:46,238 --> 00:12:48,142
This fucking breaks my heart.
213
00:12:50,377 --> 00:12:52,209
Ahhh. Okay.
214
00:12:52,211 --> 00:12:54,077
I'm trying to walk around...
trying to walk around
215
00:12:54,079 --> 00:12:55,583
this way because my car is over there.
216
00:12:56,382 --> 00:12:57,816
I'm genuinely trying to get back to my car.
217
00:12:57,818 --> 00:13:01,119
You have to walk all the way down
that way until all the police end,
218
00:13:01,121 --> 00:13:02,122
cross the street...
219
00:13:03,723 --> 00:13:05,088
So, you gonna send me where it's dangerous
and people are rioting and looting,
220
00:13:05,090 --> 00:13:08,226
when I'm trying to walk in police
presence to get back to safety?
221
00:13:08,228 --> 00:13:10,528
- You shouldn't have come here.
- I shouldn't have come here?
222
00:13:10,530 --> 00:13:13,097
- I have a right to be wherever I am.
- You're correct.
223
00:13:13,099 --> 00:13:15,265
So to tell me I shouldn't have
come here, that's the attitude
224
00:13:15,267 --> 00:13:17,000
that got them doing what they doing.
225
00:13:17,002 --> 00:13:19,006
That's not helpful, officer Neff.
226
00:13:19,539 --> 00:13:21,876
How ridiculous. Now I'm mad, ha.
227
00:13:23,542 --> 00:13:25,512
We about to get out of
here. They got on gas masks.
228
00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:27,014
You know what that means.
229
00:13:27,479 --> 00:13:28,916
You know what that means.
230
00:13:29,549 --> 00:13:32,119
- They coming now.
- Here they come. There they go.
231
00:13:34,554 --> 00:13:37,992
Woohoo! St. Louis West side, what it do.
232
00:13:45,431 --> 00:13:47,667
We had a peaceful protest
over there the whole day.
233
00:13:48,501 --> 00:13:50,400
Candlelight vigil
over there, you know,
234
00:13:50,402 --> 00:13:53,538
but that ain't the story that
you hear about August 10th.
235
00:14:41,086 --> 00:14:43,721
We begin in the St.
Louis suburb of Ferguson.
236
00:14:43,723 --> 00:14:48,092
Police are calling for calm this morning
after a night of looting and fires.
237
00:14:48,094 --> 00:14:50,761
This all started when what was
supposed to be a very peaceful
238
00:14:50,763 --> 00:14:54,200
vigil tonight for Michael
Brown turned into this.
239
00:14:56,368 --> 00:14:59,270
Teams of thieves using
the protest as an excuse
240
00:14:59,272 --> 00:15:02,372
to steal jeans, shoes,
and expensive tire rims.
241
00:15:02,374 --> 00:15:05,375
The Quik Trip was broken into.
The glass was busted out.
242
00:15:05,377 --> 00:15:09,380
Details surrounding the shooting that
sparked this fire, in great debate.
243
00:15:09,382 --> 00:15:12,717
At ground zero, police painted
over threatening graffiti.
244
00:15:12,719 --> 00:15:19,258
And as sundown approaches, officials are fearful
of another night of looting and violence.
245
00:15:33,272 --> 00:15:36,774
They say that a building burning is
worse than a black person getting shot,
246
00:15:36,776 --> 00:15:40,680
right, because this building serviced
white people and this black body did not.
247
00:15:41,513 --> 00:15:43,548
A building's a building.
You can rebuild a building.
248
00:15:43,550 --> 00:15:45,817
You can't resuscitate a life
after it lies on the ground
249
00:15:45,819 --> 00:15:48,155
for four and a half hours
with eight bullets in it.
250
00:15:48,688 --> 00:15:52,523
Um, and so, I don't consider
that violence, right, like...
251
00:15:52,525 --> 00:15:55,763
I consider that a righteous
nonviolent direct action.
252
00:15:56,662 --> 00:15:59,297
The question that solidifies
violence to me are...
253
00:15:59,299 --> 00:16:01,332
were there any people harmed?
254
00:16:01,334 --> 00:16:02,766
Did any people die?
255
00:16:02,768 --> 00:16:04,534
Like that qualifies violence.
256
00:16:04,536 --> 00:16:06,837
A building is a building.
257
00:16:06,839 --> 00:16:08,539
That's a revolutionary act.
258
00:16:08,541 --> 00:16:10,140
That's strategic.
259
00:16:10,142 --> 00:16:12,646
They don't tell you the fact
that the police showed up
260
00:16:13,345 --> 00:16:16,313
to a peaceful candlelight
vigil of just a bunch of people
261
00:16:16,315 --> 00:16:20,217
holding up candles 'cause
they hurting and boxed them in
262
00:16:20,219 --> 00:16:22,589
and forced them onto a Quik Trip lot.
263
00:16:24,190 --> 00:16:28,362
They put property over people
and say we got a problem
264
00:16:28,527 --> 00:16:30,861
in St. Louis because a
Quik Trip burned down.
265
00:16:30,863 --> 00:16:33,364
But ain't no alchemist, no doctor,
266
00:16:33,366 --> 00:16:36,336
no wizard on this planet can
bring back Mike Brown, Jr.
267
00:16:40,706 --> 00:16:42,742
I'm a mother of five.
268
00:16:43,376 --> 00:16:45,742
I'm a grandmother of five.
269
00:16:45,744 --> 00:16:47,246
That mother lost her child.
270
00:16:48,348 --> 00:16:51,084
If we don't come together now, when?
271
00:16:51,618 --> 00:16:56,220
And for the ones who have
they feet on people's necks,
272
00:16:56,222 --> 00:16:58,356
when do you feel like enough is enough?
273
00:16:58,358 --> 00:17:01,192
'Cause you gotta know that when
you keep pushing somebody up
274
00:17:01,194 --> 00:17:03,226
in the corner they gonna come out swinging.
275
00:17:03,228 --> 00:17:04,498
Well, we swinging.
276
00:17:05,498 --> 00:17:07,234
No more of our sons.
277
00:17:07,633 --> 00:17:10,601
No more of our sons. No more.
278
00:17:10,603 --> 00:17:12,639
Tell them don't shoot, hands up.
279
00:17:14,207 --> 00:17:17,707
And that's when the protesters
was just in the streets like,
280
00:17:17,709 --> 00:17:19,709
"Hell no, we ain't going nowhere."
281
00:17:19,711 --> 00:17:23,848
You know, we was occupying
the streets that we paid for.
282
00:17:25,017 --> 00:17:28,419
I was just blown away by
the sense of community.
283
00:17:28,421 --> 00:17:32,255
Black, white, everyone coming
together for this common cause.
284
00:17:32,257 --> 00:17:33,791
People from the black middle class,
285
00:17:33,793 --> 00:17:36,928
people from the hood driving
by honking their horns.
286
00:17:36,930 --> 00:17:39,397
Supportive. I get chills
just thinking of it now.
287
00:17:39,399 --> 00:17:42,399
A lot of people didn't do it justice
when they put it on their timeline.
288
00:17:42,401 --> 00:17:44,267
'Cause when you in the heart of it,
289
00:17:44,269 --> 00:17:46,903
you get to see faces and you
get to feel that black love.
290
00:18:04,257 --> 00:18:05,790
There they go.
291
00:18:05,792 --> 00:18:07,161
Here they come.
292
00:18:14,433 --> 00:18:15,566
Don't shoot.
293
00:18:15,568 --> 00:18:18,803
You are unlawfully assembled.
294
00:18:18,805 --> 00:18:21,405
You need to disperse immediately
295
00:18:21,407 --> 00:18:23,944
or you will be subject to arrest.
296
00:18:24,776 --> 00:18:26,343
Do it now.
297
00:18:37,356 --> 00:18:38,691
Hands up.
298
00:18:40,360 --> 00:18:42,826
Shoot, man, we put our
hands up. What's good, man?
299
00:18:42,828 --> 00:18:44,728
We got our hands up, we ain't did nothing.
300
00:18:44,730 --> 00:18:45,865
We retreating and you still shooting.
301
00:18:45,867 --> 00:18:48,468
- Get the fuck out of here!
- We retreating, you still shooting.
302
00:18:51,504 --> 00:18:53,974
Move it along. Keep it going.
303
00:19:00,747 --> 00:19:02,013
You ain't gon' out shoot them.
304
00:19:02,015 --> 00:19:04,482
It sound good, it feel good,
305
00:19:04,484 --> 00:19:06,984
it look good, but you
ain't gon' out shoot them.
306
00:19:08,520 --> 00:19:10,021
They got more jails, they got more guns,
307
00:19:10,023 --> 00:19:11,525
they got more bullets.
308
00:19:12,057 --> 00:19:14,992
So, you not gon' win that battle, man.
309
00:19:14,994 --> 00:19:17,995
You know somebody that got a sound
system, get on the phone and call them.
310
00:19:17,997 --> 00:19:22,365
You know somebody that got a car they can carpool
somebody to a meeting or to a rally, do that.
311
00:19:22,367 --> 00:19:24,034
You know, that's
progressive. That's progress.
312
00:19:24,036 --> 00:19:26,036
That's positive, but
burning down Quick Trip
313
00:19:26,038 --> 00:19:29,340
ain't gon' get us nowhere but
them with more guns in our face,
314
00:19:29,342 --> 00:19:30,841
shooting more of our kids.
315
00:19:30,843 --> 00:19:32,376
Understand what I'm saying?
316
00:19:32,378 --> 00:19:38,015
Right now is the time for
us to influence the people
317
00:19:38,017 --> 00:19:39,883
who don't think like we think.
318
00:19:39,885 --> 00:19:41,919
Have the right conversations.
319
00:19:41,921 --> 00:19:43,286
Use your social media.
320
00:19:43,288 --> 00:19:47,490
I'm telling you, I got on Twitter
yesterday and got to work, man.
321
00:19:47,492 --> 00:19:49,025
Use these things the right way.
322
00:19:49,027 --> 00:19:50,928
What we gon' do? Where we gon' meet at?
323
00:19:50,930 --> 00:19:52,565
- What's good?
- Okay?
324
00:19:52,731 --> 00:19:54,064
Feel me?
325
00:19:54,066 --> 00:19:55,932
Let's do it the right way, man.
326
00:19:55,934 --> 00:19:58,101
Let's influence the world right now.
327
00:19:58,103 --> 00:20:00,638
We got the stage, so
let's do it. This is it.
328
00:20:00,640 --> 00:20:03,873
You want to know what it look like,
what it sound like, what it feel like?
329
00:20:03,875 --> 00:20:04,877
This is it.
330
00:20:34,707 --> 00:20:36,977
Okay. Here's a t-shirt,
331
00:20:38,978 --> 00:20:41,047
uniform skirt, long socks.
332
00:20:41,713 --> 00:20:42,848
Get dressed.
333
00:20:43,815 --> 00:20:45,318
Put some deodorant on.
334
00:20:48,854 --> 00:20:51,155
- Cover your mouth.
- Your mouth.
335
00:20:51,157 --> 00:20:52,957
- Cover your mouth.
- Your mouth.
336
00:20:52,959 --> 00:20:55,094
- It's your mouth. Turn around.
- Your mouth.
337
00:20:57,997 --> 00:21:00,997
You're gonna come home and
you're gonna get three pages done.
338
00:21:00,999 --> 00:21:03,066
Three pages of homework done.
339
00:21:03,068 --> 00:21:04,003
No.
340
00:21:04,163 --> 00:21:09,875
Uh-uh. I don't wanna hear it because yesterday
you sat down and you watched TV all morning.
341
00:21:10,742 --> 00:21:12,610
You didn't lift a finger.
342
00:21:12,612 --> 00:21:14,578
Yesterday? What?
343
00:21:14,580 --> 00:21:18,518
You didn't lift a finger
to do any page of homework.
344
00:21:19,017 --> 00:21:20,653
I was thinking about it.
345
00:21:21,988 --> 00:21:26,756
I ran out of time, because I
was going to do it after dinner.
346
00:21:26,758 --> 00:21:30,026
- Those are called excuses.
- How are they excuses?
347
00:21:30,028 --> 00:21:31,631
'Cause they are.
348
00:21:40,739 --> 00:21:44,478
Kenna, she was six when
the movement first started.
349
00:21:44,844 --> 00:21:46,145
Day one, she was with me.
350
00:21:47,380 --> 00:21:49,913
There were a lot of questions
about why we were out there
351
00:21:49,915 --> 00:21:55,619
and it was my opportunity to
educate her on how things have never
352
00:21:55,621 --> 00:21:58,054
been right for black folks in
America and this is just another
353
00:21:58,056 --> 00:22:00,794
example of that and this
is what we have to do.
354
00:22:01,794 --> 00:22:04,195
I dropped out of school
for a whole semester
355
00:22:04,197 --> 00:22:06,565
and it set my graduation
date back six months.
356
00:22:06,932 --> 00:22:09,065
So many opportunities were lined up.
357
00:22:09,067 --> 00:22:11,404
My professional network was large.
358
00:22:11,938 --> 00:22:15,139
Soon as something happens and I
feel like my community is at war,
359
00:22:15,141 --> 00:22:16,940
I'm like to hell with all of that.
360
00:22:16,942 --> 00:22:19,011
None of that matters for me anymore.
361
00:22:21,948 --> 00:22:23,517
Fine, I don't want a kiss.
362
00:22:24,083 --> 00:22:25,082
Get out.
363
00:22:25,084 --> 00:22:26,249
Nope.
364
00:22:26,251 --> 00:22:28,521
Get your backpack. Nope, nope.
365
00:22:31,891 --> 00:22:33,957
Get out.
366
00:22:33,959 --> 00:22:36,092
Love you. Have a good day.
367
00:22:36,094 --> 00:22:38,097
- Five works.
- I want you to come in.
368
00:22:38,898 --> 00:22:40,534
I have to go do something.
369
00:22:41,700 --> 00:22:42,602
Go.
370
00:22:44,237 --> 00:22:46,736
I'll come see you today at lunch time.
371
00:22:46,738 --> 00:22:47,807
Lunch.
372
00:22:48,708 --> 00:22:49,743
Enjoy.
373
00:22:49,909 --> 00:22:51,076
Have a good day.
374
00:22:55,581 --> 00:22:57,948
I want her to think for herself.
375
00:22:57,950 --> 00:23:04,223
To resist and participate in
democracy, that is your right,
376
00:23:05,190 --> 00:23:07,494
and that cannot be taken away from you.
377
00:23:12,597 --> 00:23:15,765
Renewed anxiety after Ferguson
police announced the name of
378
00:23:15,767 --> 00:23:19,269
the officer involved in the shooting
death of teenager Michael Brown.
379
00:23:19,271 --> 00:23:24,641
The officer that was involved in the
shooting of Michael Brown was Darren Wilson.
380
00:23:24,643 --> 00:23:27,578
But it was the release of
documents and surveillance video
381
00:23:27,580 --> 00:23:30,648
that shows what investigators
called a strong-arm robbery of
382
00:23:30,650 --> 00:23:33,217
a box of cigars in the day
of the fatal confrontation.
383
00:23:33,219 --> 00:23:34,621
What are you saying, chief?
384
00:23:34,623 --> 00:23:38,322
Did he, did he know that he was a
suspect in a case or did he not know?
385
00:23:38,324 --> 00:23:40,160
No, he didn't. He was walking...
386
00:23:41,928 --> 00:23:43,563
It had nothing to do with the stop...
387
00:23:47,632 --> 00:23:50,900
Because they were walking down the middle
of the street blocking traffic. That was it.
388
00:23:50,902 --> 00:23:53,906
Six days to get that lie together
and it still ain't working.
389
00:23:54,606 --> 00:23:55,906
They full of it.
390
00:23:55,908 --> 00:23:58,309
All of them over there at Ferguson.
391
00:23:58,311 --> 00:24:01,812
All evidence seems to suggest
he was killed in cold blood
392
00:24:01,814 --> 00:24:05,916
and to come down here and to
not release any information,
393
00:24:05,918 --> 00:24:08,351
any incident report on the murder,
394
00:24:08,353 --> 00:24:14,024
but release information about, "Well, Mike
maybe wasn't the perfect guy," is appalling.
395
00:24:14,026 --> 00:24:18,832
Hands up, don't shoot.
Hands up, don't shoot.
396
00:24:18,998 --> 00:24:22,832
You must disperse immediately
or be subject to arrest.
397
00:24:22,834 --> 00:24:26,169
It's our right to protest
and we don't have weapons.
398
00:24:26,171 --> 00:24:28,671
Why you got guns pointed at us?
399
00:24:28,673 --> 00:24:30,341
I went to school in the West Bank.
400
00:24:30,343 --> 00:24:31,941
I saw the checkpoints come up
401
00:24:31,943 --> 00:24:33,944
and I saw that the tanks were out there.
402
00:24:33,946 --> 00:24:36,947
I didn't see no difference
between the West Bank and Ferguson.
403
00:24:36,949 --> 00:24:40,149
Just to know that like 5:00
in the afternoon you see police
404
00:24:40,151 --> 00:24:43,954
with M16s strapped across their
bodies asking you for an ID
405
00:24:43,956 --> 00:24:46,857
to see if you even live in
this area and it's just like
406
00:24:46,859 --> 00:24:48,691
you don't even live in this area.
407
00:24:48,693 --> 00:24:50,062
Like how are you gonna keep me out.
408
00:24:50,696 --> 00:24:52,830
In a peaceful manner, you must disperse.
409
00:24:52,832 --> 00:24:55,232
Just listen to what he said. Step back.
410
00:24:55,234 --> 00:24:56,800
We don't need you in jail, little brother.
411
00:24:56,802 --> 00:24:57,704
We need you out here.
412
00:24:57,706 --> 00:24:59,969
- Leave the area.
- We don't need you in jail.
413
00:24:59,971 --> 00:25:01,237
- Return to your vehicles.
- Your family needs you.
414
00:25:01,239 --> 00:25:03,977
Return to your homes. This
is not open for discussion.
415
00:25:05,978 --> 00:25:07,177
You gon' shoot me too?
416
00:25:07,179 --> 00:25:09,846
We are literally on our knees
with our hands in the air
417
00:25:09,848 --> 00:25:13,883
and we could see red dots,
like flicking through the crowd.
418
00:25:13,885 --> 00:25:16,085
There's this red dot going
across someone's forehead
419
00:25:16,087 --> 00:25:18,389
and there's a red dot going
across someone's chest.
420
00:25:18,391 --> 00:25:20,757
Look at how everybody's out here, hands up.
421
00:25:20,759 --> 00:25:21,728
Peaceful.
422
00:25:22,327 --> 00:25:23,861
Signs.
423
00:25:23,863 --> 00:25:25,262
That's all they got are signs
424
00:25:25,264 --> 00:25:27,765
and look what the fuck they got...
425
00:25:27,767 --> 00:25:29,365
- Don't touch me.
- Let her go.
426
00:25:29,367 --> 00:25:31,968
- Don't touch me.
- Let her go.
427
00:25:31,970 --> 00:25:33,736
Let me go.
428
00:25:43,848 --> 00:25:46,417
People like picked up teargas and
I was like, yeah, I'm one of them.
429
00:25:46,419 --> 00:25:51,889
Like my hand, like, I don't think I have like
fingerprints on my, like, fingers and stuff.
430
00:25:51,891 --> 00:25:54,425
But after a while, you
like, if I'm gonna die,
431
00:25:54,427 --> 00:25:56,763
I'm gonna die for a real reason today.
432
00:25:59,030 --> 00:26:01,100
- Go on, man!
- Go, go, get inside.
433
00:26:04,135 --> 00:26:06,005
Our hands are up and they
are marching toward us.
434
00:26:08,440 --> 00:26:09,742
We in our yard.
435
00:26:22,921 --> 00:26:25,659
Uh-huh. See.
436
00:26:27,125 --> 00:26:28,191
Davion.
437
00:26:28,193 --> 00:26:29,892
Oh, God.
438
00:26:29,894 --> 00:26:30,763
This my shit.
439
00:26:31,157 --> 00:26:33,197
- Go on with that bullshit.
- Hey, De. Hey, De.
440
00:26:33,199 --> 00:26:37,066
- Let's go.
- No fuck that shit. This my shit.
441
00:26:37,068 --> 00:26:37,970
This my shit.
442
00:26:37,972 --> 00:26:39,736
We know what it is. This my shit.
443
00:26:39,738 --> 00:26:41,338
- Let's go. Let's go.
- No, fuck that shit.
444
00:26:41,340 --> 00:26:43,073
- Davion.
- This my shit.
445
00:26:43,075 --> 00:26:45,077
Hurry up, go get in the house.
446
00:26:56,154 --> 00:26:58,488
- What is that?
- This right here?
447
00:26:58,490 --> 00:27:00,524
This is some kind of
shotgun shell that they shot.
448
00:27:00,526 --> 00:27:02,094
I got a bunch of different stuff.
449
00:27:04,196 --> 00:27:06,366
These are the big rubber
bullets that they shot.
450
00:27:07,799 --> 00:27:11,334
I don't know how this thing
comes out or something,
451
00:27:11,336 --> 00:27:16,108
but it comes out real fast
and it hurts, it's huge.
452
00:27:18,009 --> 00:27:20,747
This is a CS smoke canister.
453
00:27:21,380 --> 00:27:23,813
You pull the pin and
throw it and it explodes,
454
00:27:23,815 --> 00:27:26,382
blows up and then lets
the stuff out of here.
455
00:27:26,384 --> 00:27:30,022
This is made in Jamestown, Pennsylvania.
456
00:27:32,525 --> 00:27:34,390
Uh...
457
00:27:34,392 --> 00:27:37,226
Oh, this is another form of a CS.
458
00:27:37,228 --> 00:27:39,396
Sometimes you'll get hit
by it and don't feel nothing
459
00:27:39,398 --> 00:27:41,497
and then go get in the shower.
460
00:27:41,499 --> 00:27:44,400
When water touches it,
then it'll activate it.
461
00:27:44,402 --> 00:27:46,003
Burns.
462
00:27:46,005 --> 00:27:46,973
It's just a bad feeling.
463
00:27:47,405 --> 00:27:49,872
This was empty, no name on it.
464
00:27:49,874 --> 00:27:51,909
I think this was a teargas canister.
465
00:27:51,911 --> 00:27:54,578
Something that got shot out of
a gun and then just releases gas
466
00:27:54,580 --> 00:27:57,880
out of holes, like...
467
00:27:57,882 --> 00:28:00,350
- All of this is chemical warfare.
- Chemical munitions.
468
00:28:00,352 --> 00:28:04,923
Yeah. That you are not supposed
to be able to use on US soil.
469
00:28:14,132 --> 00:28:15,532
She got teargassed.
470
00:28:15,534 --> 00:28:18,302
Mm-hmm. In her stomach.
471
00:28:18,304 --> 00:28:20,003
She was in jail.
472
00:28:20,005 --> 00:28:22,007
Um, what else?
473
00:28:24,176 --> 00:28:25,441
That's pretty much it.
474
00:28:25,443 --> 00:28:27,377
She slept in a tent.
475
00:28:27,379 --> 00:28:28,378
Oh yeah.
476
00:28:28,380 --> 00:28:29,783
Slept in a tent.
477
00:28:34,519 --> 00:28:38,455
...last night, where after
hours of peaceful protesting,
478
00:28:38,457 --> 00:28:43,192
small groups took to the streets
with intent of committing crimes
479
00:28:43,194 --> 00:28:44,963
and endangering citizens.
480
00:28:45,597 --> 00:28:48,465
That is unacceptable.
481
00:28:48,467 --> 00:28:53,035
So, to protect the people and
property of Ferguson today,
482
00:28:53,037 --> 00:28:55,205
I am signing an order
declaring a state of emergency
483
00:28:55,207 --> 00:28:59,976
and ordering the implementation of a
curfew in the impacted area of Ferguson.
484
00:28:59,978 --> 00:29:05,047
We cannot have looting and crime at night.
485
00:29:05,049 --> 00:29:06,617
We can't have people fearful...
486
00:29:06,619 --> 00:29:09,085
We can't have police
officers killing people.
487
00:29:09,087 --> 00:29:15,127
Governor, my question is, how do
you plan to enforce the curfew?
488
00:29:18,631 --> 00:29:21,130
Tonight we will enforce that curfew.
489
00:29:21,132 --> 00:29:22,932
We won't enforce it with trucks.
490
00:29:22,934 --> 00:29:24,501
We won't enforce it with teargas.
491
00:29:24,503 --> 00:29:26,069
- Thank you.
- We'll communicate.
492
00:29:26,071 --> 00:29:28,104
We'll talk about, you know
what, it's time to go home.
493
00:29:28,106 --> 00:29:29,973
- Thank you.
- It's time to go home.
494
00:29:29,975 --> 00:29:32,642
If you have not seen a
hand-in-hand approach last night
495
00:29:32,644 --> 00:29:35,946
some things were different and
precipitated that and you saw that.
496
00:29:35,948 --> 00:29:39,149
You saw that. But I can tell you
because someone's standing in the street,
497
00:29:39,151 --> 00:29:41,118
there's not going to be an
armored truck coming out.
498
00:29:41,120 --> 00:29:44,688
You saw people sitting in the street
and they got a chance to get up.
499
00:29:44,690 --> 00:29:46,390
And that's the way it's going to continue.
500
00:29:46,392 --> 00:29:47,524
Thank you.
501
00:30:08,479 --> 00:30:11,281
This ain't fucking Iraq. This is not Iraq.
502
00:30:11,283 --> 00:30:12,716
This is St. Louis.
503
00:30:12,718 --> 00:30:16,152
So, don't tell us you're going
to fucking shoot us, okay.
504
00:30:16,154 --> 00:30:19,156
Don't fucking tell us
you're going to shoot us.
505
00:30:19,158 --> 00:30:20,690
We are not in fucking Iraq.
506
00:30:20,692 --> 00:30:23,126
This is fucking North County.
507
00:30:23,128 --> 00:30:25,128
You guys are the aggressors.
508
00:30:25,130 --> 00:30:27,030
You guys are the ones that pushed us.
509
00:30:27,032 --> 00:30:29,032
There was a 12 o'clock curfew.
510
00:30:29,034 --> 00:30:31,701
There was a fucking 12 o'clock curfew.
511
00:30:31,703 --> 00:30:33,704
It is 10:33.
512
00:30:33,706 --> 00:30:35,275
What the fuck happened?
513
00:30:45,183 --> 00:30:48,584
The last days of the
Ferguson Police Department
514
00:30:48,586 --> 00:30:50,019
we are witnessing it.
515
00:30:50,021 --> 00:30:52,054
Your silence is consent.
516
00:30:52,056 --> 00:30:55,057
You are just as wicked
as the police officer
517
00:30:55,059 --> 00:30:57,060
that shot Michael Brown
518
00:30:57,062 --> 00:31:01,331
because you didn't say nothing, and you
know he shot him for absolutely nothing.
519
00:31:01,333 --> 00:31:04,434
So, call your tanks, call
your armored vehicles.
520
00:31:04,436 --> 00:31:07,571
Do what you gotta do but
we ain't going nowhere.
521
00:31:07,573 --> 00:31:09,208
Nowhere, every night.
522
00:31:18,450 --> 00:31:21,083
Missouri governor, Jay Nixon,
activated the National Guard
523
00:31:21,085 --> 00:31:24,220
after declaring a state of emergency
in Ferguson and in a statement,
524
00:31:24,222 --> 00:31:26,992
he said the guards
mission will be "limited".
525
00:31:27,492 --> 00:31:30,362
When Jay Nixon brought
the National Guard in,
526
00:31:32,264 --> 00:31:35,799
I like... incre...
527
00:31:35,801 --> 00:31:37,370
I just... I don't like...
528
00:31:40,338 --> 00:31:42,505
As a Marine, it hurt my
feelings for real, man,
529
00:31:42,507 --> 00:31:45,207
to see the National Guard,
530
00:31:45,209 --> 00:31:47,747
these guys like little brothers, man...
531
00:31:50,114 --> 00:31:53,149
With respect to the National Guard I
think it's important just to remember
532
00:31:53,151 --> 00:31:55,252
this was a state
activated National Guard
533
00:31:55,254 --> 00:31:56,820
so it's under the
charge of the governor.
534
00:31:56,822 --> 00:31:58,287
This is not something that, uh,
535
00:31:58,289 --> 00:32:00,290
we initiated at the federal level.
536
00:32:00,292 --> 00:32:04,093
These are issues of local
jurisdiction and I've gotta make sure
537
00:32:04,095 --> 00:32:08,532
that I don't look like I'm putting my
thumb on the scales one way or the other.
538
00:32:08,534 --> 00:32:10,399
Let me ask you, this is a...
539
00:32:10,401 --> 00:32:12,101
I'm waiting on me to
have a black president,
540
00:32:12,103 --> 00:32:14,103
I still ain't had me one.
541
00:32:14,105 --> 00:32:17,640
And didn't he teach
constitutional law, at Harvard?
542
00:32:17,642 --> 00:32:20,145
Wasn't he a constitutional professor?
543
00:32:21,646 --> 00:32:23,513
Ain't no constitution in Ferguson,
544
00:32:23,515 --> 00:32:26,248
so tell that nigga he
need to teach a new class,
545
00:32:26,250 --> 00:32:31,423
or bring is ass to Ferguson Burger Bar and
figure out why we ain't got no constitution.
546
00:32:31,856 --> 00:32:33,492
Holy....
547
00:32:34,826 --> 00:32:36,528
See they're media too.
548
00:32:37,196 --> 00:32:38,430
We gonna go up the street.
549
00:32:49,342 --> 00:32:50,908
They're pushing us in.
They're pushing us in.
550
00:32:50,910 --> 00:32:54,643
They just shot... started shooting teargas
down at the other end by McDonald's,
551
00:32:54,645 --> 00:32:57,313
right by the media and
now they're pushing us in.
552
00:32:57,315 --> 00:32:59,181
You can see people running.
553
00:33:01,586 --> 00:33:03,453
- Fuck.
- Fuck.
554
00:33:03,455 --> 00:33:05,191
Erica. Eri...
555
00:33:42,227 --> 00:33:47,197
Good evening, the images from this weekend of
violence in the streets, stores being looted.
556
00:33:47,199 --> 00:33:50,766
Crowds of people breaking into stores
along West Florissant overnight.
557
00:33:50,768 --> 00:33:53,370
The police chief of St. Louis
County told the reporters
558
00:33:53,372 --> 00:33:55,408
the violence is
destroying this city.
559
00:33:55,574 --> 00:33:57,207
You see bottles of booze come out.
560
00:33:57,209 --> 00:33:58,507
A lot of open containers.
561
00:33:58,509 --> 00:33:59,942
You see people
smoking a little dope.
562
00:33:59,944 --> 00:34:01,777
And I hate to keep bringing
that up every night,
563
00:34:01,779 --> 00:34:03,546
but it really does
become part of the mix.
564
00:34:03,548 --> 00:34:06,515
My mother used to tell me nothing
good ever happens after midnight.
565
00:34:08,252 --> 00:34:09,920
It was obvious military tactics.
566
00:34:09,922 --> 00:34:12,391
Come in, cut off they communications.
567
00:34:13,491 --> 00:34:15,225
Round them up, you know what I'm saying.
568
00:34:15,227 --> 00:34:16,129
You ready?
569
00:34:16,131 --> 00:34:19,395
No, come on man don't do
that. Come on, don't do that.
570
00:34:19,397 --> 00:34:21,630
- Don't do it.
- Fuck. Fuck.
571
00:34:21,632 --> 00:34:24,266
Then, once we got them under
control, have the news people,
572
00:34:24,268 --> 00:34:28,440
have a combat photographer come in and
say like, hey, look they going crazy.
573
00:34:28,607 --> 00:34:30,774
Yeah, they going crazy because we
just cut off they communications
574
00:34:30,776 --> 00:34:31,810
and shot a couple of them.
575
00:34:34,379 --> 00:34:35,545
Don't shoot!
576
00:34:35,547 --> 00:34:38,547
And then, later on,
everything calm and all that
577
00:34:38,549 --> 00:34:42,821
and then everybody home like, oh,
hey, they rounded up the insurgents.
578
00:34:43,788 --> 00:34:45,821
We in they country,
how are they insurgents?
579
00:34:45,823 --> 00:34:46,790
You know what I'm saying?
580
00:34:46,792 --> 00:34:49,428
That's what was going on in Ferguson, man.
581
00:34:49,962 --> 00:34:52,429
This way. This way. They
fucking throwing teargas at us.
582
00:34:52,431 --> 00:34:53,397
Here they go.
583
00:34:53,399 --> 00:34:56,266
Fucking throwing teargas at us.
584
00:34:58,270 --> 00:35:01,337
Get back. Where the fucking
cameras at now besides ours?
585
00:35:01,339 --> 00:35:04,306
Y'all got all them fuckers
stealing rims and shit.
586
00:35:04,308 --> 00:35:07,844
KSDK, KMOV, CNN, MSNBC.
587
00:35:07,846 --> 00:35:09,815
I'm calling all you motherfuckers
out. Where y'all at now?
588
00:35:36,607 --> 00:35:38,877
It's six o'clock in the morning.
589
00:35:39,977 --> 00:35:42,011
Please get this.
590
00:35:46,618 --> 00:35:48,618
His mama finna...
591
00:35:48,620 --> 00:35:50,690
Damn, they gon' tear
our neighborhood up now.
592
00:35:51,756 --> 00:35:52,857
Where the fire department at?
593
00:35:55,761 --> 00:35:57,830
- There's no fire extinguisher?
- No.
594
00:36:01,033 --> 00:36:02,268
Who made the call?
595
00:36:02,401 --> 00:36:05,504
Who made the call? Did somebody
call and say there was a fire?
596
00:36:06,772 --> 00:36:08,737
Don't worry about it,
it's going right back up.
597
00:36:08,739 --> 00:36:10,373
It'll be right back up tonight.
598
00:36:10,375 --> 00:36:12,609
Don't even worry about it
y'all let them know that.
599
00:36:12,611 --> 00:36:14,911
I'll be out here next
time. Don't worry about it.
600
00:36:14,913 --> 00:36:17,013
Motherfuckers gon' have to set me on fire.
601
00:36:17,015 --> 00:36:17,880
And y'all tell them.
602
00:36:17,882 --> 00:36:20,482
Because y'all know 'em. I know y'all do.
603
00:36:20,484 --> 00:36:23,386
Stop being fucking cowards, man.
604
00:36:23,388 --> 00:36:25,020
Y'all did that. That's wrong.
605
00:36:25,022 --> 00:36:27,390
Y'all did that shit to him!
606
00:36:27,392 --> 00:36:28,491
That's wrong!
607
00:36:28,493 --> 00:36:29,993
- This is bull man. You know I'm...
- Listen, listen.
608
00:36:29,995 --> 00:36:32,062
Y'all burnt that man shit up.
609
00:36:32,064 --> 00:36:33,565
No, I don't care.
610
00:36:35,533 --> 00:36:38,768
No, that's wrong, y'all shouldn't
touch his shit, that's wrong.
611
00:36:38,770 --> 00:36:43,406
Man, the police did that shit!
They burnt that man shit up.
612
00:36:43,408 --> 00:36:44,810
The fuck wrong with y'all?
613
00:36:52,651 --> 00:36:54,053
Ain't gon' be no peace now.
614
00:37:00,792 --> 00:37:04,527
It was clear that it was,
it was set with gasoline
615
00:37:04,529 --> 00:37:06,562
because a lot of that stuff was pretty wet.
616
00:37:06,564 --> 00:37:10,533
There was water on a lot of that stuff
from the morning dew and what have you.
617
00:37:10,535 --> 00:37:13,937
When Ferguson Fire Department
showed up on scene...
618
00:37:13,939 --> 00:37:18,841
they came, they put the fire out and
then after the fire was put out, uh,
619
00:37:18,843 --> 00:37:22,112
they got back in the fire truck and
they left and the police followed them.
620
00:37:22,114 --> 00:37:25,582
There was no investigation to
see how this fire was started.
621
00:37:25,584 --> 00:37:29,551
And like I said, I just thank
everybody for everything they're doing
622
00:37:29,553 --> 00:37:30,719
and just say keep fighting.
623
00:37:30,721 --> 00:37:33,625
You know, because we only
lose when we stop fighting.
624
00:37:33,792 --> 00:37:36,629
You know, so, that's all I got to say.
625
00:37:39,631 --> 00:37:45,502
This was actually the first camera that
I got when I first started cop watching.
626
00:37:45,504 --> 00:37:48,004
I just put my stickers on it, you know.
627
00:37:48,006 --> 00:37:50,573
Put a picture on my camera
so when the police look
628
00:37:50,575 --> 00:37:52,741
and they can see that
Copwatch sticker on there.
629
00:37:52,743 --> 00:37:56,145
Got some walkie talkies,
this two of them for me.
630
00:37:56,147 --> 00:37:58,483
So, when I leave I give one to my wife.
631
00:37:59,584 --> 00:38:04,087
So, the cops don't come in Canfield,
like, no more doing none of that crap.
632
00:38:04,089 --> 00:38:07,457
They do stranger stuff and
that's because we done changed,
633
00:38:07,459 --> 00:38:08,958
we made them change what they doing.
634
00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:10,463
That's all I want.
635
00:38:10,465 --> 00:38:14,730
You know, don't give them an opportunity
to gun somebody down in the street.
636
00:38:14,732 --> 00:38:16,901
Be out there to watch them.
637
00:38:17,902 --> 00:38:20,636
I don't go out with no
weapons or nothing like that.
638
00:38:20,638 --> 00:38:23,205
I go out with my camera.
That's my weapon, you know,
639
00:38:23,207 --> 00:38:27,042
and the fact is that since the
police are not being held accountable,
640
00:38:27,044 --> 00:38:28,480
we have to hold them accountable.
641
00:38:32,651 --> 00:38:35,051
- I wanna go.
- You wanna go?
642
00:38:35,053 --> 00:38:37,620
- Go. Daddy...
- Sorry.
643
00:38:37,622 --> 00:38:39,424
- ...I wanna go.
- You can't go.
644
00:38:39,991 --> 00:38:41,658
Daddy.
645
00:38:41,660 --> 00:38:43,659
- Huh?
- I wanna go.
646
00:38:43,661 --> 00:38:45,163
I'm sorry, you can't go.
647
00:38:45,897 --> 00:38:47,933
Daddy gotta go do work, man.
648
00:38:48,799 --> 00:38:50,669
Okay? Come here.
649
00:38:51,937 --> 00:38:53,536
Daddy gotta go do work, man.
650
00:38:53,538 --> 00:38:54,640
I'm sorry.
651
00:38:56,540 --> 00:38:58,007
Daddy sorry.
652
00:38:58,009 --> 00:39:00,076
All right? We can hang out later, okay?
653
00:39:00,078 --> 00:39:01,643
Uh-oh.
654
00:39:01,645 --> 00:39:03,212
- All right?
- Okay.
655
00:39:03,214 --> 00:39:05,785
- Okay?
- Okay.
656
00:39:08,252 --> 00:39:09,721
Uh-oh.
657
00:39:13,658 --> 00:39:15,658
Watch out, son, let me get out this door.
658
00:39:15,660 --> 00:39:16,594
Excuse me.
659
00:39:18,596 --> 00:39:20,031
I'll be back.
660
00:39:21,198 --> 00:39:23,568
- Okay.
- Okay.
661
00:39:30,241 --> 00:39:32,808
No matter what, I still
kind of love my father
662
00:39:32,810 --> 00:39:35,978
even though he wasn't there
for me when I was coming up.
663
00:39:35,980 --> 00:39:38,815
My dad called me, man,
when all this was going on.
664
00:39:38,817 --> 00:39:41,850
He said he seen me on
TV and he was like, man,
665
00:39:41,852 --> 00:39:43,719
and he said he was proud of me, man.
666
00:39:43,721 --> 00:39:45,254
And I can't remember my
dad ever telling me...
667
00:39:45,256 --> 00:39:47,056
- Tell you he was...
- ...he was proud of me.
668
00:39:47,058 --> 00:39:49,128
- So that was a big deal.
- That's what's up.
669
00:39:50,060 --> 00:39:53,062
And I was, I was happy, you know.
670
00:39:53,064 --> 00:39:54,200
Yeah.
671
00:39:56,268 --> 00:39:58,571
I grew up in this shit.
672
00:39:59,103 --> 00:40:00,703
The cops beat me up before.
673
00:40:00,705 --> 00:40:04,109
Like... police rolled up
on me on the street, man.
674
00:40:04,743 --> 00:40:09,145
Snatched me up in they
car and yeah, beat me up.
675
00:40:09,147 --> 00:40:11,147
They shoot and kill somebody every year.
676
00:40:11,149 --> 00:40:13,886
I was living out there,
what, six, seven years.
677
00:40:14,886 --> 00:40:16,585
That shit crazy.
678
00:40:16,587 --> 00:40:17,522
Yeah.
679
00:40:17,524 --> 00:40:19,688
I ain't never have a record
before I moved into Ferguson.
680
00:40:19,690 --> 00:40:22,292
I moved to Ferguson when I was like 20.
681
00:40:22,294 --> 00:40:25,761
Now my record longer than my goddamn leg.
682
00:40:25,763 --> 00:40:27,632
I'm like, this shit's stupid.
683
00:40:30,335 --> 00:40:31,368
Good afternoon.
684
00:40:31,370 --> 00:40:34,002
We are here today to
announce the latest steps
685
00:40:34,004 --> 00:40:36,105
from the Justice
Department's ongoing efforts
686
00:40:36,107 --> 00:40:40,042
to address the situation
in Ferguson, Missouri.
687
00:40:40,044 --> 00:40:42,679
We have determined that there is a cause,
688
00:40:42,681 --> 00:40:45,818
there's cause for the Justice
Department to open an investigation
689
00:40:45,984 --> 00:40:51,120
to determine whether Ferguson Police
officials have engaged in a pattern or practice
690
00:40:51,122 --> 00:40:55,194
of violations of the United
States constitution or federal law.
691
00:40:59,029 --> 00:41:02,364
Anybody growing up here you tangibly
know when you crossing the county line
692
00:41:02,366 --> 00:41:04,067
that you gotta drive a little differently.
693
00:41:04,069 --> 00:41:08,774
Your behavior changes because
you know how policing changes.
694
00:41:10,274 --> 00:41:12,043
I'm crawling out here.
695
00:41:12,777 --> 00:41:14,313
I'm barely doing 30.
696
00:41:16,013 --> 00:41:20,683
Florissant alone last year made $3
million off just traffic tickets.
697
00:41:20,685 --> 00:41:24,353
This how they do, you go up
to court and he'll be like,
698
00:41:24,355 --> 00:41:27,325
okay, you ain't got no money,
go back to jail until next week.
699
00:41:28,093 --> 00:41:31,326
And that's called a debtor's
prison and its unconstitutional
700
00:41:31,328 --> 00:41:34,797
and criminal by nature,
but they still do it
701
00:41:34,799 --> 00:41:38,333
and they do it publicly
without no accountability,
702
00:41:38,335 --> 00:41:42,207
without no questions asked.
Nothing. It's just the norm.
703
00:41:43,942 --> 00:41:48,176
And I got like four sets of tickets right
now that are totaling up to about $2,000.
704
00:41:48,178 --> 00:41:51,980
A girl named Kiana, she said she had a job.
705
00:41:51,982 --> 00:41:53,885
She had some tickets when she was like 17,
706
00:41:54,051 --> 00:41:55,250
from when she first started driving.
707
00:41:55,252 --> 00:41:57,252
Her fines was like $2,000.
708
00:41:57,254 --> 00:42:00,325
They locked her up for 14 days.
709
00:42:01,759 --> 00:42:04,596
Lost her job, became homeless.
710
00:42:05,129 --> 00:42:07,599
Homeless for two and a half years.
711
00:42:08,265 --> 00:42:13,201
All them nights you sit in jail when you just
got time to think about and think about it.
712
00:42:13,203 --> 00:42:18,908
Come August 9th there's a whole thousands
of people in the streets, same problem.
713
00:42:18,910 --> 00:42:22,011
Same result.
714
00:42:22,013 --> 00:42:23,014
Same anger.
715
00:42:24,281 --> 00:42:26,785
Yeah, I ain't never gonna
call the police again.
716
00:42:27,752 --> 00:42:30,788
Remove yourself from the street.
717
00:42:32,357 --> 00:42:35,991
Any violations will result in arrest.
718
00:42:35,993 --> 00:42:38,930
We ready.
719
00:42:39,096 --> 00:42:43,636
We ready for y'all.
720
00:42:44,435 --> 00:42:47,036
- Say what?
- We ready.
721
00:42:47,038 --> 00:42:48,237
What?
722
00:42:48,239 --> 00:42:50,406
We ready, we ready for y'all.
723
00:42:50,408 --> 00:42:52,875
...the sidewalk.
724
00:42:52,877 --> 00:42:55,310
We need you to go to the sidewalk.
725
00:42:55,312 --> 00:42:57,279
We are human.
726
00:42:57,281 --> 00:43:00,183
- We are willing to go to jail.
- It's going down on your watch.
727
00:43:00,185 --> 00:43:03,752
- But treat us like humans and not like animals.
- Don't look down.
728
00:43:03,754 --> 00:43:07,489
Don't beat us like dogs
when you do arrest us.
729
00:43:07,491 --> 00:43:10,926
I ain't letting nothing, I
ain't letting none of y'all...
730
00:43:10,928 --> 00:43:14,830
We will continue to fight for our rights.
731
00:43:14,832 --> 00:43:21,439
We will continue to fight for our rights.
732
00:43:24,274 --> 00:43:25,408
Link up.
733
00:43:29,913 --> 00:43:33,516
We are human. We are human.
734
00:43:33,518 --> 00:43:37,053
We are human. We are human.
735
00:43:37,055 --> 00:43:42,824
We will continue to fight
for what we believe in.
736
00:43:42,826 --> 00:43:45,361
Show me what democracy looks like.
737
00:43:45,363 --> 00:43:47,996
This is what democracy looks like.
738
00:43:47,998 --> 00:43:50,533
Show me what democracy looks like.
739
00:43:50,535 --> 00:43:53,502
The ultimate justice is that
this police department is gone.
740
00:43:53,504 --> 00:43:56,107
There is no more Ferguson
Police Department.
741
00:43:56,841 --> 00:43:58,975
Past an indictment. Past a conviction.
742
00:43:58,977 --> 00:44:01,243
They need to be gone. We're sick of it.
743
00:44:01,245 --> 00:44:02,145
We're tired.
744
00:44:02,147 --> 00:44:06,382
There's no denying that we are unmoved.
745
00:44:06,384 --> 00:44:07,516
It's no denying it.
746
00:44:07,518 --> 00:44:09,986
You either join it or you stay home.
747
00:44:09,988 --> 00:44:11,853
You either for it or you against it.
748
00:44:11,855 --> 00:44:13,121
It's simple as that.
749
00:44:13,123 --> 00:44:15,525
And if you're against it, don't come.
750
00:44:15,527 --> 00:44:18,527
If you come and you're for it, be with us.
751
00:44:18,529 --> 00:44:20,495
March with us. Chant with us.
752
00:44:20,497 --> 00:44:23,332
- Stand with us.
- We're not going anywhere.
753
00:44:23,334 --> 00:44:25,500
We're not going anywhere.
754
00:44:25,502 --> 00:44:28,404
Everybody else can join this
shit. You know what I'm saying?
755
00:44:28,406 --> 00:44:31,873
Like, this is a group of people,
we don't talk every, every day,
756
00:44:31,875 --> 00:44:32,875
you know what I mean?
757
00:44:32,877 --> 00:44:34,877
We came out here and we
stood up for our rights,
758
00:44:34,879 --> 00:44:37,045
and anybody can do that.
759
00:44:37,047 --> 00:44:39,047
What is your message
to a national audience?
760
00:44:39,049 --> 00:44:42,350
My message, my message
personally, my message is,
761
00:44:42,352 --> 00:44:45,487
it's been 52 days and I've
spent more time in jail
762
00:44:45,489 --> 00:44:47,390
than Darren Wilson.
763
00:44:47,392 --> 00:44:49,357
- That's my message.
- That's our message.
764
00:44:49,359 --> 00:44:51,062
- I love black people.
- Yes, I love black people.
765
00:44:51,228 --> 00:44:53,429
We love black people. We love humans.
766
00:44:53,431 --> 00:44:55,901
- We doing this for you.
- We doing this for you.
767
00:44:57,167 --> 00:44:59,435
Excuse me, excuse me. What's your name?
768
00:45:00,305 --> 00:45:02,871
You going to turn me down on camera?
769
00:45:02,873 --> 00:45:04,172
What's your name?
770
00:45:04,174 --> 00:45:06,511
Where were you at?
771
00:45:07,312 --> 00:45:08,547
MoKaBe's.
772
00:45:10,547 --> 00:45:13,149
I'm forever indebted to
Mike Brown because of him,
773
00:45:13,151 --> 00:45:15,585
along with Brittany, they saved my life.
774
00:45:15,587 --> 00:45:17,453
I was in a car accident two years ago.
775
00:45:17,455 --> 00:45:19,187
Worst day of my life.
776
00:45:19,189 --> 00:45:21,190
Um, I lost my dad.
777
00:45:21,192 --> 00:45:22,958
Lost my uncle.
778
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:26,098
And I was the only one who made
it out of this car accident.
779
00:45:26,263 --> 00:45:29,464
I went through serious
depression for a long time.
780
00:45:29,466 --> 00:45:31,299
For almost, for over a year.
781
00:45:31,301 --> 00:45:34,069
Somebody handed me a bullhorn
one day and that was it.
782
00:45:34,071 --> 00:45:36,638
I just had a different type of passion.
783
00:45:36,640 --> 00:45:38,207
Then I met her, I met Brittany
784
00:45:38,209 --> 00:45:39,475
and that just offset everything.
785
00:45:39,477 --> 00:45:40,842
Like, you know what I'm saying?
786
00:45:40,844 --> 00:45:44,446
The sun it kind of burned a little
bit when I was in it too long.
787
00:45:44,448 --> 00:45:47,083
Water tasted different, like,
you know what I'm saying?
788
00:45:47,085 --> 00:45:50,319
Like, its real like it's
not even an exaggeration.
789
00:45:50,321 --> 00:45:52,955
Like, food tasted different.
You know what I'm saying?
790
00:45:52,957 --> 00:45:55,056
I could actually feel,
like, when people touched me.
791
00:45:55,058 --> 00:45:57,627
I just didn't feel like I
was going through the motions.
792
00:45:57,629 --> 00:45:59,328
I didn't feel like I was
just, like, surviving.
793
00:45:59,330 --> 00:46:02,364
I didn't feel like I was just making it
through the day. You know what I'm saying?
794
00:46:02,366 --> 00:46:04,667
I actually felt like I
had something to live for.
795
00:46:04,669 --> 00:46:07,103
You know what I'm saying? That
I had some type of purpose.
796
00:46:07,105 --> 00:46:09,237
You gotta get on your right or left knee.
797
00:46:09,239 --> 00:46:11,574
You get on the right, you
usually get on the right...
798
00:46:11,576 --> 00:46:12,641
Oh, I got a bad knee.
799
00:46:12,643 --> 00:46:16,112
So, that means you have
to say yes to marrying me.
800
00:46:16,114 --> 00:46:19,982
So, Brittany Lynn
Farrell, will you marry me?
801
00:46:19,984 --> 00:46:23,018
- Yes.
- You gotta put it on, bruh.
802
00:46:23,020 --> 00:46:25,087
Give me your finger, bruh.
803
00:46:25,089 --> 00:46:27,392
Which one is it? This one?
804
00:46:30,962 --> 00:46:32,264
Can I get up?
805
00:46:33,230 --> 00:46:34,996
I'm married.
806
00:46:38,136 --> 00:46:41,469
Loving a black woman has to be
one of the most beautiful things
807
00:46:41,471 --> 00:46:43,642
I've ever done next to
bringing a life in this world.
808
00:46:44,542 --> 00:46:48,009
I think about it every single day.
809
00:46:48,011 --> 00:46:50,980
It is one of the best
decisions I've made.
810
00:46:50,982 --> 00:46:55,650
Love, love, love.
Revolutionary love, love, love.
811
00:46:55,652 --> 00:46:58,687
Revolutionary love, love, love.
812
00:46:58,689 --> 00:47:01,489

- Hi.
820
00:47:20,210 --> 00:47:21,743
- How was school?
- I had a great day today.
821
00:47:21,745 --> 00:47:23,712
- Oh, you did?
- I had a awesome day.
822
00:47:23,714 --> 00:47:25,214
Mm-hmm.
823
00:47:25,216 --> 00:47:26,582
- How was your behavior?
- It was great.
824
00:47:26,584 --> 00:47:28,183
Okay.
825
00:47:28,185 --> 00:47:31,319
Can you, can you take
me to the talent show?
826
00:47:31,321 --> 00:47:33,321
- When is the talent show, Kenna?
- I don't know.
827
00:47:33,323 --> 00:47:34,692
I got to look at the paper.
828
00:47:35,326 --> 00:47:37,726
March 31st.
829
00:47:37,728 --> 00:47:41,730
Its 6:30 to 8 PM.
830
00:47:41,732 --> 00:47:44,165
Is that your day, is that our day with you?
831
00:47:44,167 --> 00:47:45,169
I think so.
832
00:47:52,042 --> 00:47:56,948
I just challenge these
ideas of normality.
833
00:47:57,348 --> 00:48:00,348
You have your normal family.
834
00:48:00,350 --> 00:48:03,786
Your normal family is
a heterosexual couple
835
00:48:03,788 --> 00:48:05,257
with some children.
836
00:48:06,558 --> 00:48:09,091
Why is it that you not
questioning this new normal of
837
00:48:09,093 --> 00:48:11,997
single parent households
since you so for the family?
838
00:48:12,497 --> 00:48:17,232
You know, if your normal is limited
opportunities for people of color,
839
00:48:17,234 --> 00:48:19,169
why aren't you
questioning that normal?
840
00:48:19,171 --> 00:48:26,241
If that normal is 18-year-old teenager
laying in the street for four hours...
841
00:48:26,243 --> 00:48:28,245
but that's your normal, right?
842
00:48:30,580 --> 00:48:33,748
Everybody wants things to be normal.
843
00:48:33,750 --> 00:48:38,487
I feel like, if you are
not questioning normal
844
00:48:38,489 --> 00:48:40,257
you are not paying attention.
845
00:49:04,381 --> 00:49:08,650
Vonderrit was killed
October 8, 2014.
846
00:49:08,652 --> 00:49:10,553
It reenergized us in a way.
847
00:49:10,555 --> 00:49:12,288
- Whose block?
- Droop block.
848
00:49:12,290 --> 00:49:13,688
- Whose block?
- Droop block.
849
00:49:13,690 --> 00:49:15,324
- Whose block?
- Droop block.
850
00:49:15,326 --> 00:49:16,792
- Whose block?
- Droop block.
851
00:49:16,794 --> 00:49:18,060
Whose block?
852
00:49:18,062 --> 00:49:21,429
It brought people together and
out in the street to disrupt.
853
00:49:21,431 --> 00:49:22,832
We did not choose this life.
854
00:49:22,834 --> 00:49:25,201
We have to make change.
855
00:49:25,203 --> 00:49:27,803
We have to I'm telling
you because if we don't,
856
00:49:27,805 --> 00:49:29,304
it's going to happen again.
857
00:49:29,306 --> 00:49:30,709
It's going to continue to happen.
858
00:49:38,683 --> 00:49:40,882
If you can hear me, clap three times.
859
00:49:40,884 --> 00:49:42,717
If you can hear me, clap two times.
860
00:49:42,719 --> 00:49:44,353
If you can hear me, clap once.
861
00:49:44,355 --> 00:49:45,587
All right.
862
00:49:45,589 --> 00:49:46,723
If you doing Copwatch trainings,
863
00:49:46,725 --> 00:49:50,592
if you doing people's
assembly, if you doing a rally,
864
00:49:50,594 --> 00:49:54,596
if you doing a disruption, fill the map up.
865
00:49:54,598 --> 00:49:57,232
Disruption is about not stopping.
866
00:49:57,234 --> 00:50:00,469
Meaning, we got to fight
back, but you got to resist.
867
00:50:00,471 --> 00:50:03,806
You got to cut the strings that
government's actually putting on us.
868
00:50:03,808 --> 00:50:06,674
You gotta cut the strings that
those police officers are afraid of.
869
00:50:06,676 --> 00:50:09,178
If we don't do it, if we let it die,
870
00:50:09,180 --> 00:50:11,913
it's our fault if this
transformation don't happen.
871
00:50:11,915 --> 00:50:16,388
We realized if this is really gonna
be and get at the issue for real,
872
00:50:16,553 --> 00:50:19,721
we gotta create a space
for people to come in.
873
00:50:19,723 --> 00:50:23,491
And that was the birth of
what became Ferguson October.
874
00:50:25,629 --> 00:50:27,228
We turn to Ferguson, Missouri
875
00:50:27,230 --> 00:50:28,931
where activists are
calling on people
876
00:50:28,933 --> 00:50:31,634
to join them this weekend
for a national protest
877
00:50:31,636 --> 00:50:33,335
against police bias and violence.
878
00:50:33,337 --> 00:50:37,705
What we're going to see this
weekend is a massive show of force
879
00:50:37,707 --> 00:50:40,609
by peaceful demonstrators coming
from all over the country,
880
00:50:40,611 --> 00:50:42,478
all over the world possibly.
881
00:50:53,757 --> 00:50:56,424
All across the US, people
was watching St. Louis,
882
00:50:56,426 --> 00:50:57,595
watching Ferguson.
883
00:51:00,431 --> 00:51:01,897
Come and sacrifice
your body, you know.
884
00:51:01,899 --> 00:51:03,134
It's the moment.
885
00:51:05,937 --> 00:51:07,536
- Hands up.
- Don't shoot.
886
00:51:07,538 --> 00:51:09,237
- Hands up.
- Don't shoot.
887
00:51:09,239 --> 00:51:10,442
- Hands up.
- Don't shoot.
888
00:51:10,607 --> 00:51:11,940
- Hands up.
- Don't shoot.
889
00:51:11,942 --> 00:51:13,444
- Hands up.
- Don't shoot.
890
00:51:13,611 --> 00:51:16,545
- Hands up.
- Don't shoot.
891
00:51:16,547 --> 00:51:19,315
My life matters. My life matters.
892
00:51:19,317 --> 00:51:22,451
My life matters. My life matters.
893
00:51:22,453 --> 00:51:25,554
My life matters. My life matters.
894
00:51:25,556 --> 00:51:28,290
Thank you, thank you. I am so
inspired. This is beautiful, y'all.
895
00:51:28,292 --> 00:51:29,991
We just want to thank you for coming out.
896
00:51:29,993 --> 00:51:31,560
Let me just get like a hand clap,
897
00:51:31,562 --> 00:51:33,696
how many of you guys got
the real deal from Twitter?
898
00:51:33,698 --> 00:51:36,265
When everything is going down, how
many of you guys got the real deal?
899
00:51:38,835 --> 00:51:41,437
We're gonna show Twitter how
beautiful this is right now.
900
00:51:41,439 --> 00:51:42,774
We're gonna take a selfie with the crowd.
901
00:51:42,776 --> 00:51:45,708
We're gonna hashtag it Ferguson October and
we want to make this trend around the world
902
00:51:45,710 --> 00:51:48,710
and show the world how we came
out for our community today.
903
00:51:48,712 --> 00:51:50,548
Good... and real.
904
00:52:05,830 --> 00:52:09,364
Thou shall not kill.
905
00:52:14,305 --> 00:52:19,942
Oh, say can you see a generation
of young people that are saying
906
00:52:19,944 --> 00:52:21,609
to this community,
907
00:52:21,611 --> 00:52:25,346
we will transform this racial background
908
00:52:25,348 --> 00:52:31,520
into a pristine playground where all of
God's children can laugh, play, and sing.
909
00:52:31,522 --> 00:52:35,857
Red, yellow, black, brown,
or white we are all, all, all,
910
00:52:35,859 --> 00:52:38,329
all precious in God's sight.
911
00:52:41,531 --> 00:52:45,333
If you took a selfie of social
justice when you might find
912
00:52:45,335 --> 00:52:49,504
and when you realize that
here in Ferguson, Missouri
913
00:52:49,506 --> 00:52:51,873
is that we have a society,
914
00:52:51,875 --> 00:52:57,379
we have a nation that is over
incarcerated and under educated.
915
00:52:57,381 --> 00:53:00,518
If you took a selfie of social justice.
916
00:53:03,721 --> 00:53:08,627
If you took a selfie of social
justice what we would conclude is -
917
00:53:12,529 --> 00:53:14,865
- It's some bullshit.
- Let them speak.
918
00:53:19,002 --> 00:53:21,937
Let them speak. Let them speak.
919
00:53:21,939 --> 00:53:24,672
Let them speak. Let them speak.
920
00:53:24,674 --> 00:53:27,076
Let them speak. Let them speak.
921
00:53:27,078 --> 00:53:29,444
Let them speak. Let them speak.
922
00:53:29,446 --> 00:53:32,448
Let them speak. Let them speak.
923
00:53:32,450 --> 00:53:35,417
Let them speak. Let them speak.
924
00:53:35,419 --> 00:53:36,955
Let them speak.
925
00:53:44,462 --> 00:53:46,962
This is what democracy looks like.
926
00:53:46,964 --> 00:53:48,964
Show me what democracy looks like.
927
00:53:48,966 --> 00:53:51,600
This is what democracy looks like.
928
00:53:51,602 --> 00:53:53,569
Show me what democracy looks like.
929
00:53:53,571 --> 00:53:55,837
This is what democracy looks like.
930
00:53:55,839 --> 00:53:58,107
Show me what democracy looks like.
931
00:53:58,109 --> 00:54:00,712
This is what democracy looks like.
932
00:54:04,482 --> 00:54:08,150
We been at this for 65 days and counting.
933
00:54:08,152 --> 00:54:10,853
We ain't got no answers for nothing.
934
00:54:10,855 --> 00:54:14,156
All the stuff that y'all saw on
CNN... we ain't need CNN for that
935
00:54:14,158 --> 00:54:17,458
cause we got off our ass and went
there and talk to Pookie and Ray-Ray
936
00:54:17,460 --> 00:54:19,862
that live in Canfield and
found out what happened.
937
00:54:19,864 --> 00:54:21,632
I didn't need MSNBC.
938
00:54:22,600 --> 00:54:24,833
Darnell told me he died with his hands up.
939
00:54:24,835 --> 00:54:26,467
So, I believe Darnell.
940
00:54:26,469 --> 00:54:28,837
I don't need Don Lemon
to confirm what happened
941
00:54:28,839 --> 00:54:30,172
cause I'm there.
942
00:54:30,174 --> 00:54:31,476
Cause I'm there.
943
00:54:33,611 --> 00:54:37,478
The people who want to take
the time to break down racism
944
00:54:37,480 --> 00:54:40,984
y'all did not show up.
945
00:54:42,986 --> 00:54:45,654
When the tanks and the
armored trucks was there
946
00:54:45,656 --> 00:54:47,489
and the teargas was there
947
00:54:47,491 --> 00:54:49,525
and we was getting hit
with the rubber bullets
948
00:54:49,527 --> 00:54:53,094
and we said, you know what,
I can't stay home for this.
949
00:54:53,096 --> 00:54:56,165
I can't stay home for this.
950
00:54:56,167 --> 00:54:57,766
They killing us.
951
00:54:57,768 --> 00:55:01,506
Missouri is the new Mississippi.
952
00:55:04,774 --> 00:55:07,909
Its people I thought that
I just knew we could rely on
953
00:55:07,911 --> 00:55:10,679
in these situations and
we couldn't rely on them
954
00:55:10,681 --> 00:55:12,513
and it broke my heart, man.
955
00:55:12,515 --> 00:55:13,614
It broke my heart.
956
00:55:13,616 --> 00:55:17,654
get up off your ass and join us.
957
00:55:18,221 --> 00:55:20,755
When there was an armored
vehicle on West Florissant
958
00:55:20,757 --> 00:55:22,524
wasn't none of y'all there, man.
959
00:55:22,526 --> 00:55:23,794
Wasn't none of y'all there.
960
00:55:24,495 --> 00:55:25,797
Not one.
961
00:55:26,797 --> 00:55:28,400
Not one.
962
00:55:30,667 --> 00:55:34,502
And at this point, I don't care about
nobody opinion about what we doing.
963
00:55:34,504 --> 00:55:37,138
I don't care about how it
look. It ain't made for TV.
964
00:55:37,140 --> 00:55:39,808
This ain't your daddy's
civil rights movement.
965
00:55:39,810 --> 00:55:42,714
This ain't your daddy's
civil rights movement.
966
00:55:42,879 --> 00:55:47,216
And they wanna know, they wanna know
when we going to go in the house,
967
00:55:47,218 --> 00:55:49,717
we ain't never going
back in the damn house.
968
00:55:49,719 --> 00:55:51,053
So, you take that.
969
00:55:51,055 --> 00:55:52,687
You take that.
970
00:55:54,725 --> 00:55:56,558
And Imma tell the police this.
971
00:55:56,560 --> 00:55:59,527
Imma tell the police this, you

It is our duty to

It is our duty to win.
999
00:57:17,774 --> 00:57:20,641
We must love and support each other.
1000
00:57:20,643 --> 00:57:23,178
We must love and support each other.
1001
00:57:23,180 --> 00:57:26,781
We have nothing to

They going to take it
down on his birthday, man.
1008
00:58:08,658 --> 00:58:10,926
That's fucked up, man.
1009
00:58:10,928 --> 00:58:13,060
And they got all these
motherfuckers out here
1010
00:58:13,062 --> 00:58:17,100
with these cameras, man, to film this, man.
1011
00:58:20,103 --> 00:58:23,707
They removing the stuff and they
loading it in a trailer right now.
1012
00:58:25,075 --> 00:58:26,210
God, man.
1013
00:58:28,344 --> 00:58:32,350
The real community is really,
like, not feeling what they doing.
1014
00:58:33,183 --> 00:58:34,585
You know what I mean? I mean...
1015
00:58:42,393 --> 00:58:45,096
They having some little
speech or some talk over there.
1016
00:58:54,404 --> 00:58:56,871
Hey, look, man, don't
set that camera up, dog.
1017
00:58:56,873 --> 00:58:59,373
Please don't, man. Look, I live here.
1018
00:58:59,375 --> 00:59:00,975
Don't set that camera up, man.
1019
00:59:00,977 --> 00:59:03,411
Y'all not filming none of this, man.
1020
00:59:03,413 --> 00:59:05,746
Man, I ain't trying to talk to nobody.
1021
00:59:05,748 --> 00:59:07,149
Look, y'all not filming...
1022
00:59:07,151 --> 00:59:09,717
y'all cameras down here
at this memorial today.
1023
00:59:09,719 --> 00:59:12,286
We not doing that, man. I don't care, man.
1024
00:59:12,288 --> 00:59:14,255
Look, and I'm tired of
compromising with everybody
1025
00:59:14,257 --> 00:59:17,993
cause ain't nobody came down here
to Canfield, talked to the residents.
1026
00:59:17,995 --> 00:59:18,930
I been out in this street.
1027
00:59:18,932 --> 00:59:21,129
- I talk to my community.
- You think I don't know that?
1028
00:59:21,131 --> 00:59:22,563
No, you don't know how
much shit we went through,
1029
00:59:22,565 --> 00:59:26,234
kicking mainstream media out of here
and y'all bringing them back down.
1030
00:59:26,236 --> 00:59:30,038
And the fact that they removing the
memorial and got mainstream media down here.
1031
00:59:30,040 --> 00:59:31,105
That's two in a one.
1032
00:59:31,107 --> 00:59:33,475
It's like, dog, you trying
to take away our shit
1033
00:59:33,477 --> 00:59:36,777
and you going to allow them to
broadcast that shit on national TV.
1034
00:59:36,779 --> 00:59:39,313
I gotta fucking live here when they leave.
1035
00:59:39,315 --> 00:59:40,183
I agree.
1036
00:59:40,185 --> 00:59:44,051
And that shit that happens after
that shit happens, affects us, man.
1037
00:59:44,053 --> 00:59:46,023
And I'm getting my family out of here.
1038
00:59:52,328 --> 00:59:55,464
The day that the memorial
had got taken up,
1039
00:59:55,466 --> 01:00:01,402
the security grabbed me up and security dude
got his arm in my back like on the ground.
1040
01:00:01,404 --> 01:00:04,839
And so, he came back and he
told me he was like, yeah, man,
1041
01:00:04,841 --> 01:00:09,511
they tried to get me to lie
and make up a story on you.
1042
01:00:09,513 --> 01:00:11,913
And he was telling me...
he was like, yeah, man,
1043
01:00:11,915 --> 01:00:16,451
they been paying them guys to come
and take that stuff from the memorial
1044
01:00:16,453 --> 01:00:20,925
and they was like it's the Lipton
Company that's paying them to do it.
1045
01:00:21,524 --> 01:00:24,461
And it's like they was taking it every day.
1046
01:00:24,962 --> 01:00:26,460
Where is my paper at?
1047
01:00:26,462 --> 01:00:29,464
I got a summons to go
to court and everything.
1048
01:00:29,466 --> 01:00:31,169
They trying to sue me, man.
1049
01:00:33,236 --> 01:00:36,504
I was supposed to be gone,
like, about two months ago
1050
01:00:36,506 --> 01:00:41,375
and they didn't give me no
explanation of why they, uh,
1051
01:00:41,377 --> 01:00:43,245
why they going to, uh,
1052
01:00:43,247 --> 01:00:45,013
why they not going to renew my lease.
1053
01:00:45,015 --> 01:00:47,018
I been living here two years already now.
1054
01:00:47,183 --> 01:00:50,819
I ain't got no complaints and now
you not going to renew my lease
1055
01:00:50,821 --> 01:00:56,324
and when I ask them they say, you know,
it was a corporate decision, you know.
1056
01:00:56,326 --> 01:01:01,129
No matter how much I put into
the preservation of that memorial,
1057
01:01:01,131 --> 01:01:03,397
I still ain't build it, the people did.
1058
01:01:03,399 --> 01:01:08,402
That in itself is, like, how
you fight back for space...
1059
01:01:08,404 --> 01:01:12,007
like we fighting for our
space, like, right here.
1060
01:01:12,009 --> 01:01:14,375
Keep it going. All right.
1061
01:01:14,377 --> 01:01:15,544
There you go.
1062
01:01:15,546 --> 01:01:16,748
Justice.
1063
01:01:17,814 --> 01:01:21,149
This is public property.
The community has spoken.
1064
01:01:21,151 --> 01:01:23,484
The community said this is what we want.
1065
01:01:23,486 --> 01:01:24,752
- Okay.
- Okay?
1066
01:01:24,754 --> 01:01:28,290
The grandmother and the mother
want this memorial to continue.
1067
01:01:28,292 --> 01:01:29,924
So, let's be their voices.
1068
01:01:29,926 --> 01:01:32,493
Let's honor them and keep it moving.
1069
01:01:32,495 --> 01:01:35,263
I'm a resident that
stay up here in Canfield
1070
01:01:35,265 --> 01:01:38,600
and just like a lot of the
residents that's been still here,
1071
01:01:38,602 --> 01:01:41,402
we been making sure this
memorial is still here.
1072
01:01:41,404 --> 01:01:44,172
And that them police ain't been
able to come through and take it.
1073
01:01:44,174 --> 01:01:46,408
I'm out here with my family,
you know what I'm saying,
1074
01:01:46,410 --> 01:01:49,310
because I don't want my
child to be killed by cops
1075
01:01:49,312 --> 01:01:50,911
cause that'll kill me.
1076
01:01:50,913 --> 01:01:53,915
And I rather die, man,
before my kid die, man.
1077
01:01:53,917 --> 01:01:55,549
So, let them kill me first.
1078
01:01:55,551 --> 01:01:58,085
And we out here for y'all, you know.
1079
01:01:58,087 --> 01:02:00,589
And we want, like she said,
man, y'all come back out here.
1080
01:02:00,591 --> 01:02:03,027
Bring some teddy bears,
let's build this back up.
1081
01:02:03,527 --> 01:02:06,027
Keep that memorial going on that grass.
1082
01:02:06,029 --> 01:02:07,462
This is public property.
1083
01:02:07,464 --> 01:02:09,063
You keep it going.
1084
01:02:09,065 --> 01:02:11,334
Be relentless. We are warriors. Okay.
1085
01:02:13,069 --> 01:02:16,538
One, two, three.
1086
01:02:54,977 --> 01:02:59,082
I'm gonna take a deep breath cause
I actually feel like I'm in a panic.
1087
01:02:59,616 --> 01:03:00,649
Why?
1088
01:03:03,620 --> 01:03:05,520
- What does this say, mama?
- What does it say?
1089
01:03:05,522 --> 01:03:07,254
- I don't know.
- Read it.
1090
01:03:07,256 --> 01:03:08,623
- Rackims...
- Ray...
1091
01:03:08,625 --> 01:03:09,991
Rasums kills.
1092
01:03:09,993 --> 01:03:10,995
Racism.
1093
01:03:12,029 --> 01:03:13,261
Black lives matter.
1094
01:03:13,263 --> 01:03:14,998
Racism kills.
1095
01:03:17,500 --> 01:03:18,636
Which one's your favorite?
1096
01:03:19,703 --> 01:03:23,404
Is it... it is our duty
to fight for our freedom?
1097
01:03:23,406 --> 01:03:24,638
- No.
- Which one?
1098
01:03:24,640 --> 01:03:26,507
I don't like that one.
1099
01:03:26,509 --> 01:03:28,542
The Assata chant is not your favorite.
1100
01:03:28,544 --> 01:03:31,145
- I am just hurt.
- Why?
1101
01:03:31,147 --> 01:03:33,416
I'm kidding. That's my favorite one.
1102
01:03:48,364 --> 01:03:50,699
As time went by, the
more involved that I got,
1103
01:03:50,701 --> 01:03:55,303
the nights... the late nights I spent
on West Florissant or South Florissant,
1104
01:03:55,305 --> 01:03:57,672
the gas masks, the
bullet proof vests,
1105
01:03:57,674 --> 01:04:02,176
the more dangerous it got for us,
1106
01:04:02,178 --> 01:04:05,045
the more emotionally
involved she got into it
1107
01:04:05,047 --> 01:04:08,415
because she would be afraid that
the police is gonna shoot me.
1108
01:04:08,417 --> 01:04:10,719
Or she would be afraid that I
wouldn't come home, you know?
1109
01:04:10,721 --> 01:04:15,323
I caught her crying in the
bathtub one day because she said,
1110
01:04:15,325 --> 01:04:19,663
What if the police shoot you and
killed you like they shot Mike Brown?
1111
01:04:20,730 --> 01:04:24,098
I can't make her feel like
that could not be a reality
1112
01:04:24,100 --> 01:04:27,469
but I have to reassure
her that, you know,
1113
01:04:27,471 --> 01:04:33,477
I do this work for her and for
other children like her because
1114
01:04:34,611 --> 01:04:36,413
Mike Brown shouldn't
be dead right now.
1115
01:04:43,620 --> 01:04:45,786
The only thing I have to
say to you guys really is
1116
01:04:45,788 --> 01:04:48,623
we just live here and this is our home.
1117
01:04:48,625 --> 01:04:50,792
I don't want to be a
part of the problem here.
1118
01:04:50,794 --> 01:04:54,228
I don't want to have to
defend my home, my family,
1119
01:04:54,230 --> 01:04:56,230
but by gosh, I'm ready to do it.
1120
01:04:56,232 --> 01:05:00,801
And that's... two years ago if
you'd told me I'd own guns...
1121
01:05:00,803 --> 01:05:03,203
I'd have laughed hysterically.
1122
01:05:03,205 --> 01:05:06,473
And that's the way a lot
of us live is in fear.
1123
01:05:06,475 --> 01:05:09,446
We live in fear of this whole situation.
1124
01:05:11,781 --> 01:05:13,515
Good evening, my name is Bernie Frazier.
1125
01:05:13,517 --> 01:05:16,453
And like all of you all,
I'm a Ferguson resident.
1126
01:05:17,486 --> 01:05:20,487
There are a lot of people
in Ferguson who have become
1127
01:05:20,489 --> 01:05:23,294
very fearful of living in this community.
1128
01:05:24,294 --> 01:05:27,263
But I would like to help
you understand one thing.
1129
01:05:28,397 --> 01:05:33,134
There are many people who only have
only been fearful for two months.
1130
01:05:33,136 --> 01:05:36,239
There are more people who've
been fearful for two decades.
1131
01:05:39,509 --> 01:05:42,409
Please don't shoot me dead,
I got my hands on my head.
1132
01:05:42,411 --> 01:05:43,279
What?
1133
01:05:43,281 --> 01:05:45,813
Please don't shoot me dead,
I got my hands on my head.
1134
01:05:45,815 --> 01:05:46,683
What?
1135
01:05:46,685 --> 01:05:49,384
Please don't shoot me dead,
I got my hands on my head.
1136
01:05:49,386 --> 01:05:50,254
What?
1137
01:05:50,256 --> 01:05:52,821
Please don't shoot me dead,
I got my hands on my head.
1138
01:05:52,823 --> 01:05:53,690
What?
1139
01:05:53,692 --> 01:05:56,290
Please don't shoot me dead,
I got my hands on my head.
1140
01:05:56,292 --> 01:05:57,160
What?
1141
01:05:57,162 --> 01:05:59,393
Please don't shoot me
dead, I got my hands...
1142
01:05:59,395 --> 01:06:01,629
We're people. We're not
animals. We're not dogs.
1143
01:06:01,631 --> 01:06:03,864
We're not criminals. We human beings.
1144
01:06:03,866 --> 01:06:07,569
We bleed just like you do.
We breathe just like you do.
1145
01:06:07,571 --> 01:06:10,341
We wake up and go to work and
punch the clock just like you do.
1146
01:06:10,506 --> 01:06:11,575
Give us what we deserve.
1147
01:06:11,577 --> 01:06:15,442
How can we respect the red, white, and blue
when every time we see red, white, and blue
1148
01:06:15,444 --> 01:06:19,179
we being harassed, killed,
assaulted, or our lives ruined?
1149
01:06:32,529 --> 01:06:33,828
We want an indictment.
1150
01:06:33,830 --> 01:06:34,828
We know you do.
1151
01:06:34,830 --> 01:06:36,431
You ain't gotta protect her from us...
1152
01:06:36,433 --> 01:06:37,464
We want an indictment.
1153
01:06:37,466 --> 01:06:39,333
...we gotta protect her from you.
1154
01:06:39,335 --> 01:06:40,667
We feel for you, sister.
1155
01:06:40,669 --> 01:06:41,669
We want an indictment.
1156
01:06:41,671 --> 01:06:43,471
We want an indictment.
1157
01:06:43,473 --> 01:06:45,339
These cops don't like it.
1158
01:06:45,341 --> 01:06:46,477
We want an indictment.
1159
01:06:58,455 --> 01:07:01,455
The argument around this gotta be,
1160
01:07:01,457 --> 01:07:03,757
do we need police in the current institute.
1161
01:07:03,759 --> 01:07:06,493
We gotta talk about
policing as an institution
1162
01:07:06,495 --> 01:07:08,263
and it's a failed institution.
1163
01:07:08,265 --> 01:07:10,864
I'm thinking about these
young knuckle heads out here.
1164
01:07:10,866 --> 01:07:13,634
They going to go crazy,
man. And they going wild over
1165
01:07:13,636 --> 01:07:15,402
materialistic things that ain't
going to get you out of poverty.
1166
01:07:15,404 --> 01:07:16,904
- Because they poor.
- That's, that's...
1167
01:07:16,906 --> 01:07:18,408
all this is learned behavior.
1168
01:07:18,664 --> 01:07:21,630
Well, why rob somebody that
you know ain't got shit?
1169
01:07:21,632 --> 01:07:23,777
- Cause you don't value...
- Like that don't make no sense.
1170
01:07:23,779 --> 01:07:24,647
Same way...
1171
01:07:24,649 --> 01:07:27,781
You gonna rob me and you know all I got
is five dollars in my pocket just like you.
1172
01:07:27,783 --> 01:07:30,652
So, it don't make no sense to
even do what you doing down here.
1173
01:07:30,654 --> 01:07:33,221
Cause we ain't got shit.
I'm in the same hood as you.
1174
01:07:33,223 --> 01:07:35,223
I get up and go to work every day.
1175
01:07:35,225 --> 01:07:37,424
When people not valued,
people don't have no value.
1176
01:07:37,426 --> 01:07:40,430
And where they going, like, they going
to catch the bus to go rob some niggas?
1177
01:07:41,433 --> 01:07:44,265
If they ain't got nothing, it's proximity.
1178
01:07:44,267 --> 01:07:46,366
It's who closest to you.
1179
01:07:46,368 --> 01:07:49,737
We gotta figure out if this
person is breaking into my house,
1180
01:07:49,739 --> 01:07:51,406
do they need some help?
1181
01:07:51,408 --> 01:07:53,241
What kind of help do that person need?
1182
01:07:53,243 --> 01:07:55,442
Do they need drug rehabilitation?
1183
01:07:55,444 --> 01:07:58,946
Not jail, rehabilitation. Are they hungry?
1184
01:07:58,948 --> 01:08:04,320
St. Louis city spent a million dollars
in 12 days going out to Ferguson.
1185
01:08:05,321 --> 01:08:08,823
You know, our military
budget is damn near, what?
1186
01:08:08,825 --> 01:08:10,757
Almost a trillion dollars.
1187
01:08:10,759 --> 01:08:13,261
Got enough money to feed
everybody in the country.
1188
01:08:13,263 --> 01:08:15,763
The problem is they want
to spend the money on tanks,
1189
01:08:15,765 --> 01:08:19,566
teargas, guns, bullet proof
vests, and somebody who wanna,
1190
01:08:19,568 --> 01:08:24,672
you know, pull up on you
over, you know, over a joint.
1191
01:08:24,674 --> 01:08:27,845
But I think the problem is
we having this conversation
1192
01:08:28,577 --> 01:08:30,578
and the people who can be
held accountable ain't here.
1193
01:08:30,580 --> 01:08:31,448
...Missouri.
1194
01:08:31,450 --> 01:08:34,716
Here in the proverbial
calm before the storm
1195
01:08:34,718 --> 01:08:36,950
as the grand jury here
is trying to decide
1196
01:08:36,952 --> 01:08:39,853
whether or not to indict
officer Darren Wilson.
1197
01:08:39,855 --> 01:08:42,990
He is the Ferguson police
officer who shot and killed
1198
01:08:42,992 --> 01:08:47,494
an unarmed black teen by the name
of Mike Brown back on August 9th.
1199
01:08:47,496 --> 01:08:50,500
As you likely know the
story after that...
1200
01:08:52,868 --> 01:08:54,002
Next question.
1201
01:08:54,004 --> 01:08:55,703
Hi, governor, thank you.
1202
01:08:55,705 --> 01:08:58,505
Given that you've declared
the state of emergency
1203
01:08:58,507 --> 01:09:01,342
and you've put the highway
patrol under unified command,
1204
01:09:01,344 --> 01:09:06,517
does the buck ultimately stop with you when
it comes to how any protest are policed?
1205
01:09:06,683 --> 01:09:10,520
I mean, uh, we're um,
you know, it uh...
1206
01:09:11,487 --> 01:09:12,622
It uh...
1207
01:09:12,956 --> 01:09:16,723
You know I don't spend a tremendous amount
of time personalizing this vis-à-vis me.
1208
01:09:16,725 --> 01:09:19,529
I, I prefer not to be
a commentator on it.
1209
01:09:19,696 --> 01:09:21,695
I guess another way of putting
that would be, you know,
1210
01:09:21,697 --> 01:09:28,069
is there any one official or agency ultimately
in charge here in terms of response?
1211
01:09:28,071 --> 01:09:31,838
Well, I mean, it... you
know we've worked hard,
1212
01:09:31,840 --> 01:09:37,078
uh, to establish unified command,
to outline our responsibilities
1213
01:09:37,080 --> 01:09:39,614
and now with the additional
assets provided by my order of
1214
01:09:39,616 --> 01:09:43,787
the Missouri National Guard
our goal here is to, is to...
1215
01:09:45,354 --> 01:09:49,624
you know, keep the peace and allow
some folks' voices to be heard.
1216
01:09:49,626 --> 01:09:53,360
While the same time the
property and persons, person of,
1217
01:09:53,362 --> 01:09:56,799
persons of people in the St.
Louis region are protected.
1218
01:09:58,902 --> 01:10:01,369
Remember peace.
1219
01:10:01,371 --> 01:10:03,007
Peace. Peace!
1220
01:10:04,040 --> 01:10:06,310
Four and a half minutes of silence.
1221
01:10:07,943 --> 01:10:10,078
Y'all when the verdict come out, hands up.
1222
01:10:10,080 --> 01:10:11,079
Mike Brown means?
1223
01:10:11,081 --> 01:10:12,679
We got to fight back.
1224
01:10:12,681 --> 01:10:13,681
Mike Brown means?
1225
01:10:13,683 --> 01:10:15,415
- We got to fight back.
- Fight back.
1226
01:10:15,417 --> 01:10:17,084
- Fight back.
- Fight back.
1227
01:10:17,086 --> 01:10:18,386
- Fight back.
- Fight back.
1228
01:10:18,388 --> 01:10:19,553
- Fight back.
- Fight back.
1229
01:10:19,555 --> 01:10:20,687
- Fight back.
- Fight back.
1230
01:10:20,689 --> 01:10:21,591
- Fight back.
- Fight back.
1231
01:10:21,593 --> 01:10:23,325
- Fight back.
- Fight back.
1232
01:10:23,327 --> 01:10:24,828
- Fight back.
- Fight back.
1233
01:10:25,662 --> 01:10:26,764
Shh.
1234
01:10:30,532 --> 01:10:32,568
Please turn your music down.
1235
01:10:33,836 --> 01:10:35,703
Love you, Ms. Lezley.
1236
01:10:35,705 --> 01:10:38,042
The jury approaching the
stage to give the announcement.
1237
01:10:40,109 --> 01:10:42,979
- This is it, y'all, hold it down.
- Hold it down!
1238
01:10:45,849 --> 01:10:47,115
Good evening.
1239
01:10:47,117 --> 01:10:48,548
And thanks for your patience.
1240
01:10:48,550 --> 01:10:50,685
Sorry I'm a little late
getting up here, so.
1241
01:10:50,687 --> 01:10:52,219
But first and foremost,
1242
01:10:52,221 --> 01:10:56,958
I'd like to again extend my deepest
sympathies to the family of Michael Brown.
1243
01:10:56,960 --> 01:11:01,628
As I've said in the past I know that
regardless of the circumstances here,
1244
01:11:01,630 --> 01:11:03,865
they lost a loved one to violence
1245
01:11:03,867 --> 01:11:08,969
and I know that the pain that
accompanies such a loss, knows no bounds.
1246
01:11:08,971 --> 01:11:13,740
On August 9th, Michael Brown was shot and
killed by police officer Darren Wilson.
1247
01:11:13,742 --> 01:11:18,478
The grand jury worked tirelessly to
examine and reexamine all of the testimony
1248
01:11:18,480 --> 01:11:20,748
and all the physical evidence.
1249
01:11:20,750 --> 01:11:24,185
Their burden was to determine
probable cause exists to believe
1250
01:11:24,187 --> 01:11:29,026
that a crime was committed and that Darren
Wilson was the person who committed that crime.
1251
01:11:30,160 --> 01:11:33,761
Our investigation and
presentation of the evidence
1252
01:11:33,763 --> 01:11:37,765
to the grand jury of St. Louis
County has been completed.
1253
01:11:37,767 --> 01:11:40,634
We've determined that
no probable cause exists
1254
01:11:40,636 --> 01:11:43,905
to file any charge against Officer
Wilson on each of the five indictments...
1255
01:11:43,907 --> 01:11:46,039
- It's going to be okay.
- Love you, cuz.
1256
01:11:46,041 --> 01:11:48,676
We going to get justice.
We going to get justice!
1257
01:11:48,678 --> 01:11:52,112
I love you, Lezley.
1258
01:11:52,114 --> 01:11:54,481
We going to get justice.
1259
01:11:54,483 --> 01:11:55,919
Nah. No, no, no.
1260
01:11:56,986 --> 01:11:58,622
They killed somebody's son.
1261
01:11:59,221 --> 01:12:00,420
That was somebody's child.
1262
01:12:00,422 --> 01:12:04,862
- Give her a minute.
- Y'all murdered her fucking son!
1263
01:12:09,532 --> 01:12:12,667
Fuck that shit. I'll
run through this bitch.
1264
01:12:12,669 --> 01:12:16,169
You're the only black man, with
your fucking hand on your gun.
1265
01:12:16,171 --> 01:12:18,905
Everybody is possible to
go through the same thing.
1266
01:12:18,907 --> 01:12:21,642
Everybody family has went
through the same thing
1267
01:12:21,644 --> 01:12:23,811
once upon a time or another, of color.
1268
01:12:23,813 --> 01:12:24,882
You know what I'm saying?
1269
01:12:24,884 --> 01:12:30,017
Everybody done have a person in
they family, like, enslaved by this.
1270
01:12:30,019 --> 01:12:31,218
You know what I'm saying?
1271
01:12:31,220 --> 01:12:34,088
Oh, shit. There it go.
1272
01:12:34,090 --> 01:12:36,557
No justice, no peace.
1273
01:12:36,559 --> 01:12:38,593
No justice, no peace.
1274
01:12:38,595 --> 01:12:40,727
No justice, no peace.
1275
01:12:40,729 --> 01:12:42,829
No justice, no peace.
1276
01:12:42,831 --> 01:12:45,066
No justice, no peace.
1277
01:12:45,068 --> 01:12:47,168
No justice, no peace.
1278
01:12:47,170 --> 01:12:48,703
No justice, no peace.
1279
01:12:48,705 --> 01:12:50,036
Good evening, everybody.
1280
01:12:50,038 --> 01:12:52,742
As all of you know, a few
minutes ago the grand jury
1281
01:12:52,908 --> 01:12:54,976
deliberating the death of Michael Brown
1282
01:12:54,978 --> 01:12:56,480
issued its decision.
1283
01:12:57,112 --> 01:12:59,847
There are Americans
who agree with it
1284
01:12:59,849 --> 01:13:04,619
and there are Americans who are
deeply disappointed, even angry.
1285
01:13:04,621 --> 01:13:09,557
First and foremost, we are a
nation built on the rule of law
1286
01:13:09,559 --> 01:13:14,728
and so we need to accept that this
decision was the grand jury's to make.
1287
01:13:14,730 --> 01:13:15,866
Put your hands up.
1288
01:13:18,600 --> 01:13:20,136
They're shooting!
1289
01:13:28,010 --> 01:13:32,213
Understand that there's
never an excuse for violence,
1290
01:13:32,215 --> 01:13:35,283
particularly when they're a lot
of people in good will out there
1291
01:13:35,285 --> 01:13:37,285
who are willing to
work on these issues.
1292
01:14:00,309 --> 01:14:03,343
Police beating sticks on the
ground, antagonizing people,
1293
01:14:03,345 --> 01:14:06,146
calling people niggas
and animals and shit.
1294
01:14:06,148 --> 01:14:08,816
Then said what you going
to do. And left for an hour.
1295
01:14:08,818 --> 01:14:11,154
And let people loot and riot.
1296
01:15:36,272 --> 01:15:39,740
Darren Wilson's the man who everyone
has an opinion about but no one knows.
1297
01:15:39,742 --> 01:15:40,711
Mm-hmm.
1298
01:15:40,856 --> 01:15:45,282
What's the most important thing you want the
American people to know about you right now?
1299
01:15:46,416 --> 01:15:49,016
I'm really just a simple
guy. That's all I am.
1300
01:15:49,018 --> 01:15:51,418
I mean, I do family things.
1301
01:15:51,420 --> 01:15:55,289
Um... spend a lot of time
at home with the family.
1302
01:15:55,291 --> 01:15:56,423
You know, casual events.
1303
01:15:56,425 --> 01:15:59,226
We're just simple every
day normal people.
1304
01:15:59,228 --> 01:16:02,429
A lot of people believe that
you're not a simple guy.
1305
01:16:02,431 --> 01:16:05,935
You're not someone who
was in danger that day.
1306
01:16:06,102 --> 01:16:08,802
You shot an unarmed
teenager. You're a killer.
1307
01:16:08,804 --> 01:16:12,138
You're a racist. How
does that hit you?
1308
01:16:12,140 --> 01:16:15,810
It hurts. You know, it's...
that's not who I am at all.
1309
01:16:15,812 --> 01:16:18,311
And all these people making me
out to be something I'm not.
1310
01:16:18,313 --> 01:16:21,147
All I wanted to do was live.
1311
01:16:21,149 --> 01:16:23,484
That moment before the second shot,
1312
01:16:23,486 --> 01:16:26,920
you guys are staring at each other and
you said there was a look in his eye
1313
01:16:26,922 --> 01:16:28,489
like something you'd
never seen before.
1314
01:16:28,491 --> 01:16:30,758
- Um-hm.
- You described it as a demon.
1315
01:16:30,760 --> 01:16:32,093
Um-hm.
1316
01:16:32,095 --> 01:16:37,765
It was a very, very intense,
intense image he was presenting.
1317
01:16:37,767 --> 01:16:39,499
- Demon?
- Very intense.
1318
01:16:39,501 --> 01:16:42,339
And you're convinced that,
1319
01:16:43,438 --> 01:16:46,807
anyone who believes that part of you
1320
01:16:46,809 --> 01:16:49,343
is motivated by some
kind of racial animus,
1321
01:16:49,345 --> 01:16:52,346
some kind of racism, they're wrong?
1322
01:16:52,348 --> 01:16:54,115
They are wrong.
1323
01:16:54,117 --> 01:16:57,954
You can't perform the duties of a
police officer and have racism in you.
1324
01:16:59,956 --> 01:17:02,088
- We fed up.
- We can't take it no more.
1325
01:17:02,090 --> 01:17:04,859
- We fed up.
- We can't take it no more.
1326
01:17:04,861 --> 01:17:07,194
- We fed up.
- We can't take it no more.
1327
01:17:07,196 --> 01:17:09,096
- They tricky.
- This Darren Wilson.
1328
01:17:09,098 --> 01:17:10,701
Tell him to show his Darren Wilson band.
1329
01:17:12,367 --> 01:17:14,200
He has on a Darren Wilson bracelet.
1330
01:17:29,218 --> 01:17:31,552
It's very evident that
we need accountability.
1331
01:17:31,554 --> 01:17:34,021
All of these officers come up
here and they said their line
1332
01:17:34,023 --> 01:17:36,990
that they are commissioned by
the St. Louis Police Association
1333
01:17:36,992 --> 01:17:41,262
and their manager has on two
"I am Darren Wilson" badges.
1334
01:17:41,264 --> 01:17:43,030
And to be black in St. Louis
1335
01:17:43,032 --> 01:17:46,133
and to see people who
are supposed to protect me
1336
01:17:46,135 --> 01:17:49,003
wearing things that support
someone who killed someone
1337
01:17:49,005 --> 01:17:52,405
the same age as my brother
is beyond unacceptable.
1338
01:17:54,876 --> 01:17:57,110
Good evening, my name is Curtis Bergdorf
1339
01:17:57,112 --> 01:18:00,013
and I am a commissioned police
officer for the city of St. Louis.
1340
01:18:02,218 --> 01:18:03,787
Just a second. Pardon me.
1341
01:18:12,161 --> 01:18:14,928
Excuse me. First of all, you
do not tell me my function here.
1342
01:18:14,930 --> 01:18:15,898
That's right.
1343
01:18:26,442 --> 01:18:28,409
Come on, Tef.
1344
01:18:28,411 --> 01:18:31,145
- Black power!
- This is unacceptable.
1345
01:18:31,147 --> 01:18:33,450
- Don't touch me, man.
- Man, that's them.
1346
01:18:37,286 --> 01:18:38,421
Fuck that, I don't care.
1347
01:18:42,591 --> 01:18:44,094
...take turns, fella.
1348
01:18:44,260 --> 01:18:47,026
Try to finish this out so they don't win.
1349
01:18:47,028 --> 01:18:48,561
I didn't hit not one person.
1350
01:18:48,563 --> 01:18:49,799
I didn't hit one person.
1351
01:18:53,469 --> 01:18:55,806
I didn't hit one person
but I'm getting hit.
1352
01:18:56,304 --> 01:18:59,408
I'm getting hit. I ain't
hit one fucking person.
1353
01:19:01,410 --> 01:19:04,210
That's the same shit we talking about, man.
1354
01:19:04,212 --> 01:19:06,446
Same exact shit we talking about.
1355
01:19:06,448 --> 01:19:08,117
They get to do whatever they want, man.
1356
01:19:08,283 --> 01:19:09,486
Whatever they want.
1357
01:19:10,952 --> 01:19:12,354
Whatever they want.
1358
01:19:22,230 --> 01:19:24,632
When all of this is gone,
the lights, the cameras,
1359
01:19:24,634 --> 01:19:27,601
all of that is gone...
I have to live here.
1360
01:19:27,603 --> 01:19:30,637
The history that I have
between these people and myself
1361
01:19:30,639 --> 01:19:35,109
will not be eradicated when this
story is not a news story anymore.
1362
01:19:35,111 --> 01:19:37,581
This is going to be my
reality for a lifetime.
1363
01:19:52,528 --> 01:19:54,497
And we still going to protest,
1364
01:19:57,532 --> 01:19:59,134
aggressively.
1365
01:20:15,017 --> 01:20:17,383
- Whose streets?
- Our streets.
1366
01:20:17,385 --> 01:20:19,552
- Whose streets?
- Our streets.
1367
01:20:19,554 --> 01:20:21,688
- Whose streets?
- Our streets.
1368
01:20:21,690 --> 01:20:24,258
- Whose streets?
- Our streets.
1369
01:20:24,260 --> 01:20:26,060
...will never be defeated.
1370
01:20:26,062 --> 01:20:28,294
The people, united,
will never be defeated.
1371
01:20:28,296 --> 01:20:30,164
How long you want to hold the freeway for?
1372
01:20:30,166 --> 01:20:32,165
- Until.
- Until what?
1373
01:20:32,167 --> 01:20:33,433
- Until.
- Until what?
1374
01:20:33,435 --> 01:20:37,036
People are here to get arrested.
This is an arrestable action.
1375
01:20:37,038 --> 01:20:39,009
So, we're holding the line until.
1376
01:20:42,510 --> 01:20:44,410
I said Mike Brown means?
1377
01:20:44,412 --> 01:20:45,545
We got to fight back.
1378
01:20:45,547 --> 01:20:47,146
I said Mike Brown means?
1379
01:20:47,148 --> 01:20:49,182
We got to fight back.
1380
01:20:51,453 --> 01:20:53,924
Run us over. Run us over.
1381
01:20:57,559 --> 01:20:59,696
That's great, we're
doing it for these people.
1382
01:21:04,532 --> 01:21:07,066
- Link up.
- Link up.
1383
01:21:10,206 --> 01:21:13,106
We need reinforcements over here.
1384
01:21:13,108 --> 01:21:15,308
We need reinforcements.
1385
01:21:15,310 --> 01:21:17,447
If you're willing to be arrested...
1386
01:21:19,247 --> 01:21:22,716
I called and I told you, you
would be getting the fuck arrested.
1387
01:21:22,718 --> 01:21:25,488
Get off the fucking hill if
you're not here to get arrested.
1388
01:21:45,073 --> 01:21:47,106
- Can I have the charges?
- What's the charge?
1389
01:21:47,108 --> 01:21:48,642
What's the charge? Do we have a charge?
1390
01:21:48,644 --> 01:21:50,410
- Do we have a charge?
- Why is she being arrested?
1391
01:21:50,412 --> 01:21:52,713
- Why is she being arrested?
- Can you please tell us why she is being arrested?
1392
01:21:52,715 --> 01:21:55,649
- Why is she being arrested?
- Building's closed.
1393
01:21:55,651 --> 01:21:58,988
Um, the building's not closed.
This is a public building.
1394
01:22:00,523 --> 01:22:02,489
- Why is she being arrested?
- Just police.
1395
01:22:02,491 --> 01:22:04,124
Just police. You can't come in here.
1396
01:22:04,126 --> 01:22:07,127
Why is she being arrested?
Why is she being arrested?
1397
01:22:07,129 --> 01:22:10,129
Why is she being arrested?
Why is she being arrested?
1398
01:22:10,131 --> 01:22:11,734
St. Louis County Police Headquarters.
1399
01:22:13,501 --> 01:22:16,136
Our enemy is directly the police.
1400
01:22:16,138 --> 01:22:18,371
There's no buffer
between us and the cops.
1401
01:22:18,373 --> 01:22:22,109
They know who we are. They
got files on all of us.
1402
01:22:22,111 --> 01:22:24,410
For all we know, them
motherfuckers building
1403
01:22:24,412 --> 01:22:28,283
the craziest conspiracy cases
against all our black asses.
1404
01:22:29,151 --> 01:22:32,788
It never stops. Can't
clock out from this shit.
1405
01:22:36,625 --> 01:22:38,191
Free Brittany.
1406
01:22:38,193 --> 01:22:39,692
Free Brittany.
1407
01:22:39,694 --> 01:22:41,328
Free Brittany.
1408
01:22:41,330 --> 01:22:42,695
Free Brittany.
1409
01:22:42,697 --> 01:22:44,198
Free Brittany.
1410
01:22:44,200 --> 01:22:45,665
Free Brittany.
1411
01:22:45,667 --> 01:22:47,267
Free Brittany.
1412
01:22:47,269 --> 01:22:48,701
Free Brittany.
1413
01:22:53,709 --> 01:22:55,075
Yeah, wassup?
1414
01:22:55,077 --> 01:22:58,712
- The people united.
- Will never be defeated.
1415
01:22:58,714 --> 01:23:02,816
- The people united.
- Will never be defeated.
1416
01:23:02,818 --> 01:23:05,819
- The people united.
- Will never be defeated.
1417
01:23:05,821 --> 01:23:06,723
Love you, girl.
1418
01:23:06,725 --> 01:23:09,123
It is our duty to
fight for our freedom.
1419
01:23:09,125 --> 01:23:11,592
It is our duty to
fight for our freedom.
1420
01:23:11,594 --> 01:23:13,459
It is our duty to win.
1421
01:23:13,461 --> 01:23:15,329
It is our duty to win.
1422
01:23:15,331 --> 01:23:17,367
We must love and support each other.
1423
01:23:17,532 --> 01:23:19,799
We must love and support each other.
1424
01:23:19,801 --> 01:23:21,869
We have nothing to
lose but our chains.
1425
01:23:21,871 --> 01:23:24,370
We have nothing to
lose but our chains.
1426
01:23:24,372 --> 01:23:26,606
It is our duty to
fight for our freedom.
1427
01:23:26,608 --> 01:23:28,808
It is our duty to
fight for our freedom.
1428
01:23:28,810 --> 01:23:30,610
It is our duty to win.
1429
01:23:30,612 --> 01:23:32,381
It is our duty to win.
1430
01:23:32,547 --> 01:23:34,615
We must love and support each other.
1431
01:23:34,617 --> 01:23:36,917
We must love and support each other.
1432
01:23:36,919 --> 01:23:39,218
We have nothing to
lose but our chains.
1433
01:23:39,220 --> 01:23:41,888
We have nothing to
lose but our chains.
1434
01:23:55,703 --> 01:23:57,870
The fact is, is that
she tried to run us over.
1435
01:23:57,872 --> 01:23:58,806
Those are the facts.
1436
01:23:58,808 --> 01:24:00,908
She tried to run at least ten people over.
1437
01:24:00,910 --> 01:24:02,508
Right.
1438
01:24:02,510 --> 01:24:05,647
Is it any way that we could...
1439
01:24:07,582 --> 01:24:10,383
um, fight this whole thing?
1440
01:24:10,385 --> 01:24:15,524
Yeah, I think Alexis might have
some sort of justification defense.
1441
01:24:16,524 --> 01:24:19,793
I don't know if you got one, Brittany,
as it pertains to hitting the car.
1442
01:24:19,795 --> 01:24:24,664
A reasonable person can understand
that you were basically striking the car
1443
01:24:24,666 --> 01:24:27,734
to help out the people
who were there anyway
1444
01:24:27,736 --> 01:24:30,736
and that it wasn't
necessarily a malicious act,
1445
01:24:30,738 --> 01:24:33,807
it was a act just to, you
know, get the woman to stop.
1446
01:24:33,809 --> 01:24:36,743
Um, whether or not a
jury will believe that,
1447
01:24:36,745 --> 01:24:39,745
and enough to exonerate you, I don't know.
1448
01:24:39,747 --> 01:24:40,649
Hmm...
1449
01:24:40,651 --> 01:24:43,453
You know a St. Louis
County jury, I don't know.
1450
01:24:43,618 --> 01:24:45,418
- Right.
- You know, I don't know.
1451
01:24:45,420 --> 01:24:50,656
'Cause they already have their perception on
what this movement is and what the protest is.
1452
01:24:50,658 --> 01:24:53,326
- I think so. I think so.
- Yeah.
1453
01:24:53,328 --> 01:24:54,429
I think so.
1454
01:24:59,702 --> 01:25:01,334
- Well, we'll see you next time.
- Okay.
1455
01:25:01,336 --> 01:25:02,839
- All right.
- Okay.
1456
01:25:09,644 --> 01:25:12,415
Okay. Let's go.
1457
01:25:22,858 --> 01:25:26,959
If I ended up with a felony,
I don't know what I would do.
1458
01:25:26,961 --> 01:25:32,432
Just the anxiety that I have
now, I couldn't get out the bed.
1459
01:25:32,434 --> 01:25:35,334
Like, I was having panic attacks.
1460
01:25:35,336 --> 01:25:39,873
So, I went to the doctor and
she put me on a medication.
1461
01:25:39,875 --> 01:25:43,446
Like, it was really starting to
affect my day-to-day activities.
1462
01:25:44,612 --> 01:25:46,481
And I still have work to do.
1463
01:25:48,584 --> 01:25:50,984
When I look at the police report,
1464
01:25:50,986 --> 01:25:55,989
they really focused on making
me look like a villain, you know.
1465
01:25:55,991 --> 01:25:57,359
Um...
1466
01:25:59,728 --> 01:26:00,997
Let's see...
1467
01:26:02,497 --> 01:26:03,896
The female was screaming,
1468
01:26:03,898 --> 01:26:08,000
but it seemed more like
tribal chanting than words.
1469
01:26:08,002 --> 01:26:12,638
The female then kicked her driver
side door near the driver's window.
1470
01:26:12,640 --> 01:26:15,342
Prior to the female
running towards her vehicle,
1471
01:26:15,344 --> 01:26:18,344
the protesters were in a
line in front of her vehicle.
1472
01:26:18,346 --> 01:26:21,380
However, after the
female ran to her vehicle
1473
01:26:21,382 --> 01:26:23,784
a group of about 20 protesters surrounded
1474
01:26:23,786 --> 01:26:27,556
S.M.' s vehicle near the
driver and passenger doors.
1475
01:26:27,723 --> 01:26:31,391
The protesters started beating
the hood of S.M.' s vehicle.
1476
01:26:31,393 --> 01:26:34,061
S.M. stated after they kicked her vehicle,
1477
01:26:34,063 --> 01:26:37,931
her vehicle was surrounded
by the protesters.
1478
01:26:37,933 --> 01:26:40,569
She was scared the protesters
1479
01:26:40,736 --> 01:26:42,401
would pull her out of her vehicle
1480
01:26:42,403 --> 01:26:44,773
and start hitting, kicking, or beating her.
1481
01:26:46,942 --> 01:26:50,910
Like this is the narrative
of every white person ever.
1482
01:26:50,912 --> 01:26:53,549
It's like, oh, in self-defense,
1483
01:26:54,882 --> 01:26:57,386
I felt like they were gonna beat me.
1484
01:26:58,519 --> 01:27:00,790
So, I don't know.
1485
01:27:04,425 --> 01:27:06,562
Yeah, it's some bullshit.
1486
01:27:07,696 --> 01:27:08,965
It truly is.
1487
01:27:28,550 --> 01:27:30,016
Federal investigators believe
1488
01:27:30,018 --> 01:27:32,819
the Ferguson, Missouri Police
Department is racially biased.
1489
01:27:32,821 --> 01:27:34,420
Officials say the
justice department probe
1490
01:27:34,422 --> 01:27:37,557
found that Ferguson overwhelmingly
charges African Americans
1491
01:27:37,559 --> 01:27:39,593
with minor or petty offenses
1492
01:27:39,595 --> 01:27:43,463
that cause crippling debt,
loss of homes, and jobs.
1493
01:27:43,465 --> 01:27:47,636
The city relies on the police force to
serve essentially as a collection agency.
1494
01:27:47,803 --> 01:27:50,870
CBS News asked Ferguson
Police Chief Tom Jackson
1495
01:27:50,872 --> 01:27:52,938
whether his department was biased.
1496
01:27:52,940 --> 01:27:55,107
There's not a racial problem
in the police department.
1497
01:27:55,109 --> 01:27:59,146
A 2008 email by a Ferguson
official saying President Obama
1498
01:27:59,148 --> 01:28:01,114
would not be in office long because
1499
01:28:01,116 --> 01:28:03,850
"what black man holds a
steady job for four years."
1500
01:28:03,852 --> 01:28:06,753
The city and the police chief
Thomas Jackson have agreed to
1501
01:28:06,755 --> 01:28:09,021
what they're calling
a mutual separation.
1502
01:28:09,023 --> 01:28:11,725
Jackson followed city manager
John Shaw out the door
1503
01:28:11,727 --> 01:28:13,893
and Ronald Brockmeyer,
the top judge.
1504
01:28:13,895 --> 01:28:16,530
Before that, the city
fired its top clerk.
1505
01:28:16,532 --> 01:28:18,399
Today, the City Council
in Ferguson, Missouri
1506
01:28:18,401 --> 01:28:21,634
is expected to vote on a deal to reform
that city's criminal justice system.
1507
01:28:21,636 --> 01:28:24,737
If it says no, the federal
government has promised to sue.
1508
01:28:24,739 --> 01:28:28,040
Either choice could cost the city millions
of dollars it says it doesn't have.
1509
01:28:28,042 --> 01:28:29,508
...especially for black people.
1510
01:28:29,510 --> 01:28:32,111
This main argument
tonight has been the cost.
1511
01:28:32,113 --> 01:28:35,915
Southern plantation owners
did not want to free slaves
1512
01:28:35,917 --> 01:28:37,918
because the cost would be too high.
1513
01:28:37,920 --> 01:28:43,155
If the state can spend at least $11
million to teargas peaceful protesters,
1514
01:28:43,157 --> 01:28:46,927
you can surely spend a
fraction of that on equality.
1515
01:28:50,165 --> 01:28:51,530
Thank you.
1516
01:28:51,532 --> 01:28:53,702
I'm no longer a resident of Ferguson.
1517
01:28:53,868 --> 01:28:56,669
I live in St. Louis city
right now, on the north side.
1518
01:28:56,671 --> 01:28:59,673
And that wasn't by choice.
I was forced out of Canfield.
1519
01:28:59,675 --> 01:29:00,710
Okay.
1520
01:29:00,712 --> 01:29:04,076
So many of our residents in
the beginning just left because
1521
01:29:04,078 --> 01:29:07,716
they didn't feel safe with the
police how they been treating people.
1522
01:29:07,882 --> 01:29:10,049
So, I think honestly that
the Department of Justice
1523
01:29:10,051 --> 01:29:11,817
gave you guys a slap on the wrist
1524
01:29:11,819 --> 01:29:14,186
seeing as how they just
basically gave you guys
1525
01:29:14,188 --> 01:29:16,188
a failing record and they basically saying,
1526
01:29:16,190 --> 01:29:18,091
okay, this is going to be your punishment.
1527
01:29:18,093 --> 01:29:21,828
And then for you to have
the option to vote yay or nay
1528
01:29:21,830 --> 01:29:23,096
you should be happy.
1529
01:29:23,098 --> 01:29:24,964
Hey, man, everybody keep on fighting, man.
1530
01:29:24,966 --> 01:29:27,834
That's the only way we going
to get them to do something.
1531
01:29:29,270 --> 01:29:30,840
Thank you, Mr. Whitt.
1532
01:29:42,084 --> 01:29:43,850
You miss your daddy?
1533
01:29:43,852 --> 01:29:45,051
I did.
1534
01:29:45,053 --> 01:29:47,119
- You miss daddy?
- Yeah.
1535
01:29:47,121 --> 01:29:49,856
I miss you, Daddy, I miss you.
1536
01:29:49,858 --> 01:29:51,591
I miss you too.
1537
01:29:55,630 --> 01:29:58,767
Some people grow up in
what they think is like a...
1538
01:29:58,934 --> 01:30:02,835
what we would call like a real
war with, like, planes and bombs
1539
01:30:02,837 --> 01:30:06,975
and guns and stuff... but
this like a unseen war.
1540
01:30:08,609 --> 01:30:11,011
Where they wage war on the people
1541
01:30:11,013 --> 01:30:13,114
without anybody else knowing.
1542
01:30:15,584 --> 01:30:21,023
This era or generation
we are raising activists.
1543
01:30:22,157 --> 01:30:25,225
You know, we have to create
a generation of activists.
1544
01:30:25,227 --> 01:30:29,329
If there's going to be any change,
it starts with our children.
1545
01:30:29,331 --> 01:30:32,298
And all these people that
are about this are gonna start
1546
01:30:32,300 --> 01:30:35,000
raising their kids in another way.
1547
01:30:35,002 --> 01:30:37,736
And that's where the change gonna come.
1548
01:30:37,738 --> 01:30:40,039
Even these little kids that
are in elementary school now,
1549
01:30:40,041 --> 01:30:42,909
this is becoming a part of their life.
1550
01:30:42,911 --> 01:30:46,245
In a few years, its
gonna become a lifestyle,
1551
01:30:46,247 --> 01:30:49,316
not just what people may call a fad.
1552
01:30:49,318 --> 01:30:51,351
It's only been a year and so
that we've been doing this.
1553
01:30:51,353 --> 01:30:53,186
It's gonna become a lifestyle
1554
01:30:53,188 --> 01:30:55,621
where we're fighting for what we want.
1555
01:31:20,681 --> 01:31:22,949
Yeah, I saw this interview
with Malcolm X he was like,
1556
01:31:22,951 --> 01:31:26,386
if you stick a knife
nine inches into my back,
1557
01:31:26,388 --> 01:31:30,323
you pull it out six inches,
that's not progress.
1558
01:31:30,325 --> 01:31:32,325
You pull it all the way out,
that's still not progress.
1559
01:31:32,327 --> 01:31:37,830
The progress starts whenever you begin to
heal that wound that you, that you caused.
1560
01:31:37,832 --> 01:31:40,834
And what we're doing right
now we're laying the ground of
1561
01:31:40,836 --> 01:31:45,704
pulling that knife all the way out by
rebuilding our communities for our kids.
1562
01:31:45,706 --> 01:31:47,740
So that by the time they're of age
1563
01:31:47,742 --> 01:31:49,879
to lead this community
and make decisions,
1564
01:31:51,746 --> 01:31:54,313
they'll be able to start that healing
process that Malcolm was describing.
1565
01:32:00,221 --> 01:32:03,259
Hey!
1566
01:32:07,395 --> 01:32:09,428
What keeps me in the movement?
1567
01:32:09,430 --> 01:32:10,966
Um...
1568
01:32:12,268 --> 01:32:19,105
It's just this burning
desire and vision and feeling
1569
01:32:19,107 --> 01:32:25,982
and love and passion and
optimism about liberation.
1570
01:32:29,151 --> 01:32:31,383
Even though I might not ever live to see
1571
01:32:31,385 --> 01:32:33,786
what that really looks like,
1572
01:32:33,788 --> 01:32:35,288
I know what it feels like
1573
01:32:35,290 --> 01:32:37,893
and it's that feeling that keeps me going.
1574
01:32:40,429 --> 01:32:42,428
Has everybody got their candles lit?
1575
01:32:42,430 --> 01:32:43,765
Yes, sir.
1576
01:32:44,899 --> 01:32:48,735
Just like August 9th was the
birth of a movement for us,
1577
01:32:48,737 --> 01:32:51,373
this day last year was the rebirth.
1578
01:32:52,174 --> 01:32:54,944
And sometimes democracy requires
1579
01:32:55,109 --> 01:32:57,444
that we use a little extra force.
1580
01:32:57,446 --> 01:33:00,049
So, I'm not mad about what
happened on this day a year ago.
1581
01:33:01,015 --> 01:33:04,784
What started in the streets of Ferguson
has inspired those around the world.
1582
01:33:04,786 --> 01:33:08,821
So, I want to say to you, if I get
to say one thing it's to stay in this.
1583
01:33:08,823 --> 01:33:10,923
Because what we are doing is right.
1584
01:33:10,925 --> 01:33:12,158
We are winning.
1585
01:33:12,160 --> 01:33:14,460
The reality is these are our streets.
1586
01:33:14,462 --> 01:33:16,896
They were built on the
backs of our ancestors
1587
01:33:16,898 --> 01:33:19,932
so we are going to claim
them as long as we want to.
1588
01:33:19,934 --> 01:33:24,839
We will stay in the streets until
we are equal citizens period.
1589
01:33:25,940 --> 01:33:29,075
I really wanna thank y'all
for coming out. I love y'all.
1590
01:33:29,077 --> 01:33:31,343
This is... we don't do this
because we hate the police.
1591
01:33:31,345 --> 01:33:33,279
We do this because we love each other.
1592
01:33:33,281 --> 01:33:34,414
- Yeah!
- That's right.
1593
01:33:34,416 --> 01:33:37,720
This movement was born in
love and love always wins.
1594
01:33:38,987 --> 01:33:40,820
Alexis, come here.
1595
01:33:45,327 --> 01:33:47,060
Make some love for her y'all.
1596
01:33:47,062 --> 01:33:49,329
Yeah, yeah!
1597
01:33:49,331 --> 01:33:51,000
It is our duty to
fight for our freedom.
1598
01:33:51,166 --> 01:33:53,365
It is our duty to
fight for our freedom.
1599
01:33:53,367 --> 01:33:54,834
It is our duty to win.
1600
01:33:54,836 --> 01:33:56,369
It is our duty to win.
1601
01:33:56,371 --> 01:33:58,437
We must love and support each other.
1602
01:33:58,439 --> 01:34:00,472
We must love and support each other.
1603
01:34:00,474 --> 01:34:02,441
We have nothing to
lose but our chains.
1604
01:34:02,443 --> 01:34:04,511
We have nothing to
lose but our chains.
1605
01:34:04,513 --> 01:34:06,846
It is our duty to
fight for our freedom.
1606
01:34:06,848 --> 01:34:08,948
It is our duty to
fight for our freedom.
1607
01:34:08,950 --> 01:34:10,549
It is our duty to win.
1608
01:34:10,551 --> 01:34:12,084
It is our duty to win.
1609
01:34:12,086 --> 01:34:14,119
We must love and support each other.
1610
01:34:14,121 --> 01:34:16,024
We must love and support each other.
1611
01:34:16,190 --> 01:34:18,458
We have nothing to
lose but our chains.
1612
01:34:18,460 --> 01:34:20,959
We have nothing to
lose but our chains.
1613
01:34:20,961 --> 01:34:23,495
It is our duty to
fight for our freedom.
1614
01:34:23,497 --> 01:34:25,999
It is our duty to
fight for our freedom.
1615
01:34:26,001 --> 01:34:27,901
It is our duty to win.
1616
01:34:27,903 --> 01:34:29,535
It is our duty to win.
1617
01:34:29,537 --> 01:34:32,237
We must love and support each other.
1618
01:34:32,239 --> 01:34:34,507
We must love and support each other.
1619
01:34:34,509 --> 01:34:37,142
We have nothing to
lose but our chains.
1620
01:34:37,144 --> 01:34:40,146
We have nothing to
lose but our chains.
1621
01:34:43,018 --> 01:34:45,384
- I said Mike Brown means?
