Stop police brutality! Justice for Rahmarley! [ X 4 ]
NYPD KKK, how many kids did you kill today? [ X 4 ]
We're here to hear y'all voices,
to let the community know, let people know,
that Rahmarley does not stand alone.
This is not the firat time the police have attacked
a young black man
a young brown man in our communities
This is not the first time.
They've killed over 200 people since they killed Amadou Diallo [on February 4, 1999]
They have killed like 50 people since they killed Sean Bell [on November 25, 2006]
They didn't stop to _ NYPD
they're killing us and getting away with it on a daily basis.
They brutalizing us.
They getting away with it on a daily basis.
They rapin' our sisters,
and they getting away with it on a daily fuckin' basis.
And we out here saying "hell no!"
We're not havin' that no more.
We're not havin' that in The Bronx no more.
We're not havin' that in Harlem no more.
We're not havin' it in Brooklyn,
in Queens.
We ain't havin' it no more!
No more across our city
NYPD, y'all better pay attention.
The community is speaking loud.
But as we said, we would love for some people to come up.
This is your time to speak your rage.
? cant hear
Tell [mayor] Bloomberg's private army to stop killing our youth.
It's not illegal to be broke, a'ight?
And if the youth wanna smoke,
don't follow him to his crib and kill him in the bathroom, a'ight?
Get it through your heads.
You should be ashamed of yourselves.
It's all cause of capitalism.
We in the hood!
This is the hood,
we occupying the hood since you occupying the rest of the world,
for their resources.
Stop killing people.
I'm tired of waking up,
to the youth in body bags.
Y'all killin' our youth man.
What's wrong with y'all?
Look at y'all.
Y'all should be ashamed.
I see some sisters, some brothers,
y'all should be on this side.
Y'all on the wrong side of history.
Come on!
RIP all my dead brothers and sisters,
I love you,
I love The Bronx,
I love New York,
I love the world.
stop killin' our youth.
Educate us, stop shutting down our schools.
Yeah man, blessed [ im sorry, but i cant make it out. if anyone is able to add to the translation, please do]
Police. Soldier. Civilian. Peace and love,
I'm not just saying it, peace and love, y'know?
Rastafari.
All right. My father grew up in this neighbourhood, alright?
I'm fucking pissed, I'm very angry.
My grandmother was an artist here,
I got Bologneses in Italy who love Black people,
the culture, the leadership, the artwork, the political leadership.
So whatever the fuck is going on it has to stop.
I'm fucking sick of this country treating Black people like shit, thank you.
Black and Puerto Rican too!
Not Black only, the Puerto Rican too!
I'm 17 years old.
I graduate this June.
What're you gonna do?
Come to my house and shoot me one day?
Who the hell do you serve and who the hell do you protect?
Cuz you sure as hell don't protect us.
I don't care if you are a person of colour,
I don't care if you are black or brown.
As long as you don that NYPD uniform,
YOU ARE THE ENEMY!
You have been, forever.
You are a force of repression in our communities,
ans we're not going to stand for you any longer.
People are coming together and speaking out,
and the next step is action.
You should not be scaring the people.
You should be scared of us.
No justice, no peace!
Into the streets and fuck the police!
No justice, no peace!
Into the streets and fuck the police!
No justice, no peace!
Into the streets and fuck the police!
No justice, no peace!
Into the streets and fuck the police!
Listen up, listen up!
We have this law saying "thou shalt not kill",
but yet the same people who made the law is killing us every day.
What must we do?
How are we supposed to live?
If they walking around with a licenced gun
and saying they are protecting us,
how are they protecting us?
What are they doing for us?
Killing us.
Every day.
Killing us with no, no, no, no kind of complaint or anything
One thing I want to ask Mr. Kelly [NYPD police chief] today,
what is the purpose of the police officer in The Bronx?
Because the youth in The Bronx cannot walk in fucking peace.
No _, no grown man, cannot fucking walk in no peace because of the police officer.
You cannot even stand up out here,
and have a reason with your fellow man,
police officers harassing you.
What's the fucking purpose of the police officer?
What are they for?
To harass us?
To kill us?
To murder us?
Murder us!
Fucking murder us!
They're murderers!
Murderers...
[crowd begins chanting "murderers!"]
The system is racist!
They lynch, and_ us!
The system is racist!
Stop police brutality!
Justice for Rahmarley!
Stop police brutality!
Justice for Rahmarley!
Stop police brutality!
Justice for Rahmarley!
Stop police brutality!
Justice for Rahmarley!
When they see us out here
they just automatically think that we're doing something wrong,
we're up to no good,
we can't hang out on the corner and conversate with our friends.
You understand what I'm sayin'?
It's ridiculous.
It's about time that justice be served.
Justice needs to be served.
Y'all killing us.
Y'all killin' our kids.
And y'all killin' our families,
and it's time that we get justice.
The 47th commander needs to change!
