It's sad to know this is the speech that caused people to start a petition to get him removed from "Grey's Anatomy." He's speaking the absolute truth! Please remember that it is not a crime or offensive to voice outrage concerning social injustices like racial discrimination. Anyone who thinks it is undoubtedly is racist, prejudice, etc., and they want oppression to continue. If we want things to change, we must continue to speak up and take action. Any friends or acquaintances you lose in the process were never for you anyway.
@mark spannar because BLM only has a Marxist revolution goal in mind not black people rights within the country they are trying to tear down the system and replace it with communism
Yeah, I didn't realize until after I finished the video that it was originally from 2016. Although I did get tripped up a bit when he mentioned Tamir Rice's age! 😅🤦♀️ lol Should've realized right then that the speech was from a while ago. I just realized Tamir would've just turned 19 a couple days ago on June 25. Boy might've been in his 2nd year of college, if that's the route he decided to take and was available to him. His life was cut way too short. And all for the crime of just being a child while black. 😞 And it breaks my heart as well that a video on police brutality and the unwarranted executions of black and brown people that was made *FIVE* *YEARS* *AGO* is still just as applicable today. And that, honestly, if not for that Tamir Rice comment, could have been made yesterday. We still have a loooong way to go in this country, unfortunately. 😔 But Derek Chauvin was just sentenced for his *murder* of George Floyd, and I can only hope that as more police officers are held accountable for their undue assaults and killings of American citizens, and _especially_ POCs, others in the future will pause before pulling the trigger or will stop kneeling on someone's neck after only 29 seconds instead of, you know, *9* *minutes* *&* *29* *seconds* (or better yet, just don't kneel on them at all!). And slowly but surely there has been some progress in a few jurisdictions with Defunding the Police, but there are still way too many with too much money and power without nearly the accountability.
@mark spannar that's an attempt to control the narrative. It's tired. Do some research. Young black men have a 1 in 1000 chance of being shot by law enforcement.
@mark spannar BLM was started after the murder of Trayvon Martin, it’s just now gaining traction because of social media. And it’s been worldwide. There’s no deeper conspiracy that you’re looking for.
@@Johndoe-nx1uz What crime did he commit? He was being arrested for a counterfeit $20 bill which was later proven to be real. The officer had no information of his prior criminal record, even so, since when does a counterfeit dollar bill warrant someone laying their knee on a man’s neck? That’s not standard police protocol. What you’re saying is that a white collar crime justified being murdered. This isn’t nazi Germany, no matter how much you want it to be.
Pure poetry. Raw, beautiful, heartbreakingly true words that this country needs to hear. He summed up the entirety of systemic racism in less than 5 minutes and he did it with such eloquence. ❤️
Don't be mesmerized by his speech or be captivated by his brilliance. His simple message is for us to get involved. Stop cheering because this ain't sport. Do something for your community!
In all of my years of watching this show (or any award show for that matter), I've never heard an acceptance speech this powerful. This speech says everything Black people have been feeling and thinking about for a while now.
Had to get me another dose of this, with all that's been happening lately as a direct result of the death of George floyd. Jesse said we will change your function. That change is taking place right now...
Actually Floyd is what happens when you all ignore a spark for 12 years. Did Ira Toles have to speak louder? Chauvin should have been stripped in 2008, but you all thought doing nothing would be great. Er, no.
@@havanadaurcy1321 what you need to do is stop trying to tell people how to think. I don't know why u all hate us so much. But we will have equal rights in this country. Regardless if you like it or not...
I’m just very confused that people actually started a petition to get him off Greys Anatomy after this speech. Ig because of the events this year it’s something that’s being heard everywhere, but this was always a problem and he was just speaking the facts.
Really? I thought Mark Zuckerberg said that he didn't censor Facebook? They let white supremacists post racist tweets but they took that speech down!!!
What a prophecy! What he said about equality or the tearing down of the status quo is literally happening before our eyes. He truly is a visionary and I hope he is aware that his sentiments are being heard and absorbed
Watched this again on the 2016 BET Awards playback today. There are no more accolades I can give him for this that others haven’t given already. The thing I wanted to point out was when the camera went to his father, you could see how pride he was of his son. Outstanding.
“We will have equal rights in this country, or we will restructure their function and ours”. After many, many, MANY peaceful protest years prior-to no avail- we the people got tired of the same BS. And now, with some patience- and muscle- things are starting to slowly change for the better. Police profiling and brutality has to end. It is not right for them to say that they “protect and serve” when that only applies to someone white and not of color. We have souls too, we have dreams too, we bleed the same, we love the same. We just want to breathe. Enough is enough. Let’s make change happen for the better. For our children. For our future.
Unfortunately this won’t be the last powerful speech you hear. This situation breeds strong passion and emotion. Unfortunately it will always fall on deaf ears. If we want equality, we’ll literally have to leave the country and live somewhere where the majority is us.
I had cotton buds in my ears when I heard this, I felt it, but I didn't understand it, after reading a book called White Fragility: Why its so hard for white people to talk about race. EVERYTHING that Jessie said I've heard in the first three chapters and I am mortified. I had an existential and philosophical breakdown because (why I never this, I don't know why, my dad never taught me this) Dr Robin DiAngelo talked about what Racism is "That it is a system and not an event" It is so heartbreaking to see how fabricated and manipulated we have been. I honestly question why Martin Luthor King marched for integration, if they didn't want us fcking there, why badger to be inside it. We should have set up our own schools, our own banks, and our own education system. I'm sorry if i've offended anyone, but until you read into this topic and specifically read this book that i'm talking about, then I don't want to hear your opinion.
Adrian, I know exactly what you mean. I am halfway through White Fragility and have had the same kind of breakdown.. like why did my parents not talk about this, my teachers, my friends, etc and that realization is so disturbing. The profound lie we are taught that everything is fine. Uncovering means knowing a dystopia you can’t ever fully comprehend but knowing we as the white collective build and sustain racist systems and ideas is nothing short of horrifying.
It’s hard to talk about something that doesn’t relate to you. When has a white personal been segregated, enslaved, beat and raped and thrown into a system that’s designed to keep you a slave?? That’s why they don’t want to talk about it.
@@andreayates4951 not only in England, basically everywhere in Europe. Here in Austria the term „Race“ alone is automatically considered racist. But we didn’t have a bloody colonial history, like the UK so we’re good Imao.
I don't care if you want my opinion. When we had our own schools and banks and businesses they were bombed from the sky, or flooded and made into lakes.
All you guys are applauding him now, but I remember when the black community was hating on it because he was a light skin male meanwhile you was calling light skin females black queens at the same time.
Well than i guess ignorance towards color of skin isnt limited to the caucasians then...its the same in south africa, its sad, celebrate your humanity and your roots...
At the end of the day, he is melanated, as is his father AND he spoke the obvious truth to anyone who has lived in "black" skin for 20 years and longer.
It’s 2023 and I still remember how impactful this speech was. Seeing it in real time on national tv was mind blowing. I loveeeee every second of this speech!
ECONOMICS will set black people FREE they have to be ECONOMICALLY powerful be their own BOSS flip their own money write their own checks own their own COUNTRY'S own the MOTHERLAND the CONTINENT of AFRICA they have to fight back PHYSICALLY and be CONNECTED to one another LOVE IS POWER BIGBOUTYA RASTAFARI BLESSINGS ☝🏾🔥🇯🇲
This is so inspiring. The layers of social and historical references are key to understand. His speech implores listeners for a call to action of change. "...critique of our oppression.." is an important sentence because it talks about the systematic racism within the U.S.

Same people he was talking about so im not surprise
You know darn well it's not a "petition" but higher ups booted him off because they don't want that heat. That speech was powerful
