This kid really spoke with confidence. I wish I could speak with confidence, but I don't like how my voice sounds on video so I have to get used to that.
Thank you. this made me cry. Thank you for saying what needed to be said. Showing this to my kids. It is our responsibility to teach the next generation not to repeat the mistakes
😢my grandkids will not suffer from this and I will make sure to do my best to STOP RACISM AND POLICE BRUTALITY at the street, at work, at church, at the gym, at the restaurant, at the store, EVERY WHERE ALL THE TIME!
LOL stopping racism against blacks is the lowest level issue in america, police brutality for criminals is literally the way you have to run a city. If you don't believe me, Go ahead and visit the areas that have been harmed by BLM, See how long it takes to be mugged
Killed and "wrongfully killed" are two different things. How many cops have been killed in that period, and how many more cops would have been killed if these guys weren't ?
It's sad that this kid knows more about equality and how to treat other human beings in respect then some fully grown adults who have lived their lives and SHOULD be wiser then him but are not.

You know why they got shot it's a law to run from the police or do any violence to the police if you run or try to shoot or assault an officer you are going to get shot
sad to see all these people in the comments disagreeing with this smart kid.... hmmm this totally doesnt feel like were in the 1960's except without the segregation lol
This has come up on my recommended now, à Bill Gates Ted talk from 5 years ago about how we're not ready for an outbreak, and also a video about some person saying that they're sorry for causing climate change.
daddychaengmommymina it wasn’t systemic racism though. None of the reports of any of these cases were the police indicated to do it based on color of racism that’s the narrative talking. They were shot because of each suspect resisted arrest or engaged in criminal activity. If it were systemic he would point to law or statute that open discriminated against blacks. But there is not one of those.
Laundry should be the only thing that should be seperated by its color

Correct
usually, I dont cry over these things. but when my teacher assigned this video, i really cried. This kid deserves the world.
My teacher assigned this video to us too and it was so eye opening!
Along with every other kid worldwide.
imagine having a teacher that forces students to watch propaganda.
Your teacher should go back for training.

@@maxHeadroom325rayxerin brainwashed that racism exists? Lmao thats a trip like
The description said he's currently in 8th grade but he looks like he's 11
London school system and American school system is different
I can't believe we're still fighting 3 years later
Why this video have only 50k when it's totally true.
@Michael Manci don't tell that to BLM, they get angry when the truth comes out
@@GalaxyJTMI ik, they will cancel me
So beautifully put Ellis. Stay safe and continue to educate us.
He is not educated he is brain washed
This is wonderful speech and thank you for speaking clear and loud 😍😍😍👩🏻🎓👏🏻👏🏻🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄🦄🥺🥺🥺
I think the root of the problem is reputation. change your reputation and maybe you can change the cycle of violence from all ends
THATS MY MAN
Young man, you are truly blessed.
Here from school!
Same
sameee
Same lol
Puppet boy, sit down!
people like you are the problem.
@@EMMBeauty and people like you are the bigger problems, using kids for political power clap clap what great person
Because some people need bigger houses.
My Brother is strongly against BLM and I’m struggling how to educate him. This helps quite a bit
Are you sure?😅
Now add george Floyd
How burn looted matters important than respect your own country?
Y'all better be because of school

Thank you its a very simple concept listen to the cops and you will live it’s easy
@@lovellmoore6808 no they aren't. If you want to live in the United states and be treated equally follow their laws. Their house their rules
The autocorrect messed corrected the stuff I said
making it worse
Why ALL LIVES MATTER now, is a way better title bro
Agreed
That was created against blm

shut up
All Lives Matter
Words are cheap. When you have to try and convince people that you matter with your words, it means your actions have failed!
Thank you
POV you came from school
Why is a kid telling people how he THINKS the real world works. THERE GOES THE YOUTH
Why is children not feeling save, it is rubbish.
How is this poem rubbish?
@@gaytoru because it is pure waffle

its not fair
Epic man
I agree with most of what he said
first twice in one day wtf is going on time for me to reach for greatness
The only person who didn't deserve to die was philando! His girlfriend should have been offed instead
Why are you using your children to lie for you?
Lincoln Gang, good job Ellis! ✊🏻
What about my Polish grandparents who were slaved by Russia??? Crickets... Grow up. Dont forget but dont expect to be coddled by me. Move forward.
A great system designed for evolving with society is lacking defenses and accountability of its members and been hijacked so needs a total overhaul
That is not true at all.
Oh wrong video
Lol
true that
Why??
He made this poem for BLM. The flowers he put on the floor is tribute to the people who were killed by systemic racism. Please educate yourself.
@@gaytoru I meant in the title he said why life matter now. As if there needs to be a reason for life to matter.
Thank you for your response.
