[Tupac] Too many families
affected by a wrongful death. [Watani]
...especially for Black males, [Tupac] This system
and this country has tore apart my family and our families. You can't have a Black family
and be together. [Watani] It's not even that you
in a gang or not in a gang. There was drug addiction,
alcoholism, violence. [Tupac] How many more funerals
do we gotta go to? And how many more scenes
of the crime do we gotta watch them
chalk out Black figures on the concrete
before we realize the only way for us to ever
get out of this predicament is to struggle to survive? [Watani]
And a lot of our people died. [Tupac] It' ain't nothing but
killing happening right now. I think the Black-on-Black
violence, when we kill each other,
it make us not really give a
fuck about Blackness, you know?
