i'd like to go everyone's attention to this year's thing fight for your rights and two thousand and fifty this will be the thirty fourth year in a row that the grassroots organization primary manifestation of the moment that we want to reinforce here today is young people organized labor and other organized groups are going seattle and across the country thank you that i've been around a long time and people were talking about in the civil rights era what young people were doing we have never seen young people stand up for quacks like we are saying cross the and wilson would walk free with not even a trial a beautiful thing happens here in seattle and across the country and we saw the young people take leadership of the movement that day and say you all have steered us in the wrong direction but we have a new vision for racial justice in america and it's a beautiful thing so we want to honor them together today and one thing that particularly touched me was that it wasn't just the schools that were predominantly students of color that let these walkouts i want to today  high school for hundreds of students walking out justice for mike brown rate that because i want to remind folks that in this last couple of months you must leave see that everyone thought that the movement was dying it was dead it was the youth that brought it back to life that stood out all around the country and let it be known for those who do not know they have strength they use courage even when still to this day some still suffer a backlash that still faces the tension face expulsion facing all these different things because they exercise right to stand up for something they believe that we really have to get a shot at you know and one assumes that we want to acknowledge today that have the courage to stand up it's cleveland high school brown and a trial for darryl wilson and i went down there to support him to speak at that rally and i told folks on that day that i thought young people were rising that we were beginning to see a movement like i don't we heard from my parents about fighting and then when i got off the mike i had to race back to garfield before the last period and it only i didn't get very far because i had to pull my car over because a thousand students came shining out of the door past and we're starting to see a new powerful movement so i want to welcome up to the front or less king was the president of the black student union our garfield hi is going on is going on everywhere in the nation and albuquerque and this is called systematic racism where people of color are deterred discouraged and hit from reaching their full potential in american society by systems there are two whites only two source social services the right systems like the education system the criminal justice system financial system the health care system and media propaganda systems the list goes on and on and on and on and on and on this is too since designed to benefit only one subset of the human rights and those that white people  is happening all across the nation in our communities i want to talk about something that everyone here may not know right so i want to talk about race i want to talk about class right who started t so as this one race simmons race a bunch of underclass folks right we are really are in the same boat ok we are slaves to the banks who that's what the pentagon's ten thirty three program is all about this program that puts these military grade the groups in china and in the hands of the local police departments right it's about their power from the state to the people right and the only way we do that it's like i say it's a come together as one there are around these issues what are you still electively organizing around those issues  see on the front line
