Soweto Blues - George Floyd (All others fallen by Racism)

Soweto Blues was used to protest the apartheid in South Africa. This song was written and performed by Hugh Masekela and Miriam Makeba. 

Today I perform it in honour of George Floyd and all others murdered by this "senseless racism" to shame those, especially some black people who trivialize and say the first half of the quote below while conscientious black people are struggling to get freedom and equality:

"What about Black-on-Black crime?" is code for "I love it when Pigs kill Black People" - @urban_survival

Black people are not angry people. We are just aware and acknowledge that our enemies, seen and unseen, have waged a war, not a laughing contest. They want not just our wealth but our blood. So we are not angry, we are protective! Protection demands aggression and aggression brings revolution. The black people (Especially Africans) who want to stay on the sidelines should stay there and shut up. If you want to stay ignorant and keep being brainwashed it's your choice but don't belittle the struggles and blame it on us. There are giants in the sky who keep us down. If you are too privileged or too ignorant to see or acknowledge the struggle, good for you but don't for a second, think that you are free; your time hasn't come yet. No black person is free!
