I need you guys to understand
[breaks down in tears]
I just want you to understand
how painful this shit is.
I need you to understand how painful
it is to be reminded every day
that your race means nothing
and that isn't the case anymore.
There is never a case anymore.
We're gonna try today, we are a physical
representation of our support for George Floyd.
– Bang on, mate. Bang on, bang on.
We are a physical representation of
our support for Sandra Bland.
We are a physical representation
of our support for Trayvon Martin.
We are a physical representation of our
support for Stephen Lawrence,
for Mark Duggan.
Black men, we need to take care of our
black women.
[Cheering]
We need to take care of them.
They are our hearts.
They are our hearts.
They are our future.
We cannot demonise our own.
We are the pillars of the family.
Imagine this, a nation that is set up
with individual families that are thriving,
there are healthy, that communicate,
that raise their children in love,
have a better rate of becoming
better human beings.
Black lives have always mattered,
we have always been important.
We have always meant something,
we have always succeeded, regardless.
And now is the time. I ain't waiting,
I ain't waiting.
