00:00:05.005 --> 00:00:07.667
'cause we know the struggle.
00:00:07.075 --> 00:00:09.209

of black men
00:00:15.459 --> 00:00:17.025

an awareness that lynching
00:00:22.167 --> 00:00:25.002
is an expression
00:00:25.125 --> 00:00:26.834
of white supremacy.

00:00:26.917 --> 00:00:31.792

00:00:31.875 --> 00:00:35.005
of black men
00:00:31.875 --> 00:00:35.005
